Thank you, Katie Cooney, for your compassion, patience and professional guidance. You helped my friend through the process of exploring housing options during a very difficult time in his life.

Katie was amazing to work with. Her patience and genuine caring nature was priceless. She found us an amazing place for Mom to go that was not just better all around, it was less expensive too. Unfortunately, Mom decided to stay where she is at. The anxiety of an actual move ended up to be too much for her to handle.

Please contact Katie if you need assistance in placing a loved one. I promise you will have an advocate and friend that is truly on your side and will walk you through the process with care and love.

My husband and I are so grateful that we met Katie Cooney! Katie is organized, thoughtful, observant, knowledgeable, and patient. My mother-in-law had been living in our home for nearly three years and my husband and I realized that we could not provide her with a safe living space for too much longer. (She is 90 years old and has dementia). A reputable nonprofit connected us with Katie and we are so grateful.


Katie met with us and spent an hour and a half discussing my mother-in-law, her needs, and our needs. She then arranged for us to visit several different facilities of all types (assisted living, memory care, new facilities, older facilities....). Katie took care of everything and we just showed up to meet with the staff and tour the facilities. Katie spent at least 2 hours with us at each facility and we were never rushed.


My mother-in-law was hospitalized on a Sunday for heart failure and my husband and I realized that she was no longer safe in our home. Because Katie had taken us to so many facilities, we were able to make a decision about where to place her and what we needed. We immediately contacted Katie and she arranged everything for us - she even helped us pick out the room and helped us arrange for movers. We were able to move my mother-in-law from the hospital to a facility by the Thursday of that week. We could not have done any of this work without Katie. 


I highly recommend Katie. You will be lucky to work with her.

Gratitude is the encompassing feeling around working with Katie. I'm grateful to my close friends for recommending her. I was starting to drown in the difficult period of caring for my mother's needs and ensuring decisions were informed and appropriate. I had no knowledge base and needed help. Thank you, Katie, for everything you have done for me and my family. I was immediately relieved when we met since I knew your support was coming from a place of intelligence, experience, diplomacy, humor and especially kindness. You really know your stuff, are humble and approachable while being strong when needed (when I wasn't able).
I found the support pillar I needed and feel like I also found a friend. My family and I are grateful for all you did. I recommend your help to anyone going through these times of need to ensure elderly care is the right care.

​​Katie was an absolute miracle for my sister and me when we were flailing around with out mom's recent dementia diagnosis. She is compassionate and flexible with immense experience in the field of senior placement. She even understood my mom's mental health disorder and how it can interact with dementia. We could not have found a better, safer place than the one she curated for us. She also has a wealth of resources. When we were trying to get our mom to a doctor but failed multiple times due to her behavior, Katie recommended a marvelous medical care company that went to our mom. Honestly, I can't imagine someone better than Katie to help others navigate senior placement. Thank you so much, Katie!! 💜💜💜

Katie was helpful in moving us to a decision in the process of finding a senior facility which we pursued for 5 years.

At a time that is so difficult when our aging parents need greater support, it was extraordinarily helpful and comforting to work with Katie Cooney. She is patient, empathetic, supportive, kind, and extremely knowledgeable about senior care living options and issues. Moreover, Katie was diplomatic and understanding when family challenges and stressors arose, helping us each step of the way. She comes with our highest recommendation. Katie will help you make informed, thoughtful decisions without pressuring, rushing, or dictating what to do. She really listens, and is also excellent communicating about sensitive issues.

Katie Cooney is a deeply compassionate and caring placement agent who truly puts the well-being of elders and their families first! Her knowledge, responsiveness, and keen insights made navigating this chapter of our loved ones' lives so much easier and better than it otherwise would have been. We never doubted that we were in the best hands with Katie!

​Katie Cooney is of those rare people who is passionate about her work.

She cares and understands the needs of seniors as they age and their families' concerns. Katie listens deeply to concerns and fears about moving a parent to a senior living community. She respects people's opinions and helps them navigate through the tough decisions.

Trustworthy and dependable, I rely on Katie to always answer the call and my questions.

Katie responded to me immediately when I was scrambling to find alternative resources for my parents' care situation. Her deep knowledge of care options and industry relationships were invaluable and I am extremely grateful.

Katie is awesome and very easy to work with. She has a great background in working with the elderly and their families so understands concern and issues of both groups. If she doesn’t know the answer to a question, she will do her own research as well as reach out to her extensive network to find the answer. I highly recommend working with Katie.
