Many older adults in Wisconsin want to stay in the homes they know. AARP’s 2024 Home and Community Preferences Survey found that 75 percent of adults aged 50 and older hope to remain in their current home as they age. Making that possible takes more than good intentions. It takes trained caregivers, clear schedules, and steady communication with families. Angel Love and Care, LLC provides in-home care for seniors in Mukwonago, Waukesha County, and surrounding communities across Southeastern Wisconsin.
A Friendship That Grew Into a Care Agency
Rhose Boldon and Mary Grace North started Angel Love and Care, LLC in 2022. The two are friends who shared an interest in elderly care and the idea of building a nurturing home environment for older adults. That shared interest became the foundation of the business.
The COVID-19 pandemic made the need harder to ignore. Families were cut off from relatives in facilities. Seniors spent months alone. Rhose and Grace built the agency as a direct answer to that problem.
They began with a small team of caregivers and a short client list. The agency now serves families in Milwaukee, Waukesha, Brookfield, New Berlin, Pewaukee, West Allis, and nearby areas. The founders describe their standard in one line. “Our mission has always been simple: care for every client with the same love, dignity, and respect we would give our own family.”
What In-Home Care Covers Day to Day
In-home care is non-medical support delivered in a person’s own home. At Angel Love and Care, that work includes personal care such as bathing, dressing, grooming, hygiene, and help with mobility. Caregivers also prepare meals, give medication reminders, manage light housekeeping, and drive clients to medical appointments, errands, and community visits.
Social isolation and loneliness among older adults are recognized concerns in aging research. The National Institute on Aging publishes guidance for families on the subject.
Companionship sits beside the practical tasks at Angel Love and Care. Caregivers share meals, hold conversations, and keep clients engaged during the hours they are in the home. Rhose and Grace treat that part of the job as real work rather than a bonus.
Care Plans Built Around One Person
No two clients need the same schedule. Angel Love and Care starts with a free assessment, then builds a plan around the client’s routine, health needs, and preferences. Families can choose visits of four hours, eight hours, or twelve hours, along with overnight shifts, live-in arrangements, and 24-hour coverage.
Matching matters as much as scheduling. The agency pairs each client with a caregiver whose skills and temperament fit the household. Plans get reviewed over time, because needs shift after a hospital stay, a new diagnosis, or a change in mobility. That flexibility is one practical reason families look at in-home care before considering a move to a facility.
Respite Care for Family Caregivers
Family members provide a large share of senior care in the United States, and the work wears people down. Respite care gives those caregivers short-term relief while a trained professional steps in.
Angel Love and Care offers respite coverage for a few hours or several days. A daughter can go to work. A spouse can sleep. The household routine continues without disruption. Respite is one of the quieter parts of in-home care, and it is often the piece families overlook.
Questions to Ask an In-Home Care Provider
Families comparing agencies can narrow the field with a few direct questions.
Ask how caregivers are screened and trained. Angel Love and Care screens and trains its caregivers before placing them with a client. Ask what happens when a regular caregiver is unavailable, because continuity breaks down quickly without a backup process. Ask how often care plans are reviewed and who to call with a concern.
Cost and scheduling deserve the same attention. Clarify minimum visit lengths, overnight rates, and which tasks fall outside the standard plan. A provider that answers these questions plainly is easier to work with months later. In-home care arrangements often run for years, so the administrative side carries real weight.

Choosing in-home care is a decision many families make under pressure, usually after a fall, a diagnosis, or a discharge date that arrives sooner than expected. Starting the conversation earlier gives everyone more room to think. Rhose and Grace built Angel Love and Care around that idea, and it still shapes the in-home care the agency provides to Wisconsin families today.
