What clients say after using Perhaps Patty...

RATING: FIVE STARS! For errand coverage, help and/or reorganization around the house, Scituate Recycling Center runs, grocery shopping, ad infinitum……..do NOT hesitate to hire this lovely woman. When my husband became very ill in the fall of 2025, I asked Patty (whom I’d never met) to come in and give me a hand……..and did she ever!   What had been a trying time, once again became manageable thanks to her help. Patty bailed my senior self out with both energy and grace! Among her many attributes, Patty is kind, thoughtful, understanding, and easy to work with.  Oh, and her rates are more than reasonable! If you, an elderly parent, grandparents, or a neighbor, are in need of an extra pair of hands, don’t hesitate to contact Patty Thompson!

  • Patty was a lifesaver, taking care of our sweet old dog while we were away. She treated her like a member of the family, and gave us updates and photos of her activities throughout. We would definitely rely on Patty again for help with our dog or other family needs. She’s excellent!

  • I have known Patty for over 8 years, and she has always been one of the most reliable people I know. There is nobody better to help with loved ones, including pets than her. We have had her watch our dog on several occasions and Ginger gives her a “'thumbs up”! She not only takes her for walks but also plays and cuddles with her, what more could you want from a sitter. Thanks Patty!

  • It is a pleasure working with Patty! We have such peace of mind when she is available to help with our people and pets. She has helped us with many situations that need a personal, warm touch - especially taking dad to appointments or errands when we are away. He always enjoys their time, saying he feels so comfortable with her and it is more like an outing with a really nice new friend. Can't recommend Perhaps Patty highly enough.

  • Patty has been an absolute game-changer for our family. She handles our morning routine with ease—helping our 10yo daughter get ready and ensuring she’s on the bus with a smile. Our daughter absolutely loves her and is always so excited when she’s coming over! Beyond childcare, Patty’s help with daily tasks around the house has been a massive relief for both my husband and me. Her attention to detail and thoughtfulness are wonderful; she has a natural eye for what needs to be done and takes the initiative to handle it. She also helps daily with our one-year-old puppy (and has even watched him overnight!), which is such a huge help. Patty is a great communicator, incredibly easy to work with, and truly feels like a vital member of our team. We are so grateful to have her and highly recommend her!

  • We first met Patty when she was a teacher at our children’s school. As we got to know Patty, she began helping our family manage the crazy logistics of our three active children a couple of days per week. She has since become an indispensable help to our family. She drives our children to practices, feeds them dinner, helps with homework, and plays countless games with them. Most importantly, our children love the days when Patty is helping out. We could not be happier and we highly recommend her!
