Care that feels like family.
We're Jake and Zac — two brothers who turned our shared passion for helping people into a mission to support seniors and families across the Pacific Northwest.
Compassion in Action
No fees. No favors. Just help.
We started Providential because we saw too many families struggling to navigate the care system alone. Our promise is simple: we're here to help you find the right care for your loved one — not to sell you something you don't need.
"Every family deserves a guide they can trust."
— Jake & Zac Schmerber
What guides everything we do.
Our values aren't just words on a wall — they shape every interaction.
Dignity First
We believe every person deserves to be treated with respect and compassion, regardless of their circumstances.
Radical Transparency
No hidden fees, no surprises. We tell you exactly what to expect, every step of the way.
Family-Centered
Your family's peace of mind is our priority. We're here to support the whole family, not just the person receiving care.
We're not just another agency.
Local & Owner-Operated
We live and work in the Portland area. When you call, you talk to us.
Caregiver-First Culture
Happy caregivers provide better care. We pay above market rate and invest in our team.
Free Care Consultations
Not sure where to start? We will help you figure it out — no strings attached.
