Home care software with heart

The calm behind extraordinary care.

Walter replaces the whiteboard, the paper timesheets and the 9pm phone calls — and when someone calls in sick, the next qualified caregiver is one tap away. Schedule, cover, bill and reassure families from one beautifully simple app.

You became a caregiver to care for people — not to spend twenty hours a week on admin.

Walter was built with agency owners running 5–30 caregivers. One quiet app for the work that used to live on whiteboards, sticky notes and frantic group texts.

Everything your agency runs on

Six services. One calm place.

Each piece of Walter replaces something painful — a whiteboard, a paper form, a worried phone call. Together they run your whole day.

Smart scheduling

Drag-and-drop shifts, repeat visits and conflict warnings. The whiteboard, retired — and every caregiver sees changes instantly.

Clock-in & visit notes

Caregivers tap in at the door, log notes and photos in seconds. You always know every visit happened — and how it went.

Billing & invoicing

Hours flow straight from visits into clean invoices. One click to send, automatic reminders, and payments land via Stripe.

Family portal

Adult children see visit summaries, photos and schedules in a read-only portal. Reassurance without the daily phone call.

Shift alerts by SMS

Open shifts, schedule changes and condition alerts reach caregivers by text — no app-checking required, no one left guessing.

Care plans & meds

Every client's routines, medications and preferences in one living document — so any caregiver can step in with confidence.

One Tuesday, minute by minute

A caregiver calls in sick. Watch what doesn't happen next.

Every agency knows the dawn phone call: a caregiver is sick, a shift is suddenly empty, and a client is waiting. Here is how that morning goes with Walter.

6:02 AM Agency

Maria calls in sick

Her morning shift with Harold is suddenly empty. The agency reopens it with one tap.

6:04 AM Agency

The right phones buzz

Walter instantly alerts every qualified caregiver near Harold who signed up for open shifts. No phone tree. No begging.

6:15 AM Caregiver

Denise claims the shift

From her kitchen table — the way a driver claims a ride. The schedule updates for everyone, and the morning is saved.

8:00 AM Caregiver

Verified at the door

Denise taps Arrive, and GPS confirms she is at Harold's address — or she snaps a photo for the family portal. His daughter sees it right away.

12:40 PM Caregiver

The day gets logged

Walter nudges Denise to add a note and a photo — Harold beating the crossword. Everything flows to the family as it happens.

8:09 PM Family

“Was Harold happy?”

One short question ends Denise's day. Her answer — “He was. We finished the crossword.” — reaches his daughter before bed. She never had to wonder.

The crisis lasted thirteen minutes. No one else ever knew there was one.

☀️ Today's update: Mom had a good morning — ate well at breakfast and enjoyed a 15-minute walk in the garden with Diana.

"A quieter day — Eleanor seemed tired and we skipped the walk. Slept well after lunch. Flagged to the office to keep an eye on it."
