We approach every placement with care, intention, and a highly personalized matching process. Our fees reflect the time, expertise, and ongoing support required to create thoughtful, lasting companionship – not quick or transactional placements.

All searches begin with a non-refundable $500 initial investment, which allows us to take the time to understand your needs and thoughtfully curate the right companion for you.

Placement fees are calculated as a percentage of the Companion’s annual salary and include personalized matching, vetting, onboarding support, and a replacement period for peace of mind:

• 25% with a standard 3-month replacement period (one-time fee)

Every placement is different, and we’re happy to walk through options, timelines, and expectations during an initial conversation to ensure the right fit on all sides.
