Customer Ratings & Reviews

My parents are healthy and happy thriving at home but they are getting older and I worry about them sometimes. My mom fell the other week and while she's okay I didn't know it happened to her until a few days later. I want my parents to safely age in place, in their home, for as long as possible and CarePenguin is such a helpful tool. It is a simple, non-invasive device that attaches to the hot water heater and gauges activity in their home. CarePenguin nudges me through the iPhone app that my folks are moving about, using water, enjoying life. Highly recommended.

This whole concept is genius. I never have to wonder if my mom is going about her normal day. I may still call her often to say hi, but it won't be to make sure she is ok. :) The ability to invite family members (or caretakers) is a huge relief so I don't feel alone in keeping her safe. Installation was super easy and smooth.

I bought this to keep tabs on my grandpa, in a way that gave him his personal space. The product was so easy to install and is noninvasive. There have been times when we don't hear from him for a few days but with a check of my phone, I am given peace of mind that he is up and running as normal. So thankful to have purchased this product!

Over the last year, my grandma's health has been declining. She's had a few issues where she's fallen sick and couldn't get out of bed. It was by pure luck that we caught it early and were able to help but she hates using her cell phone and refuses to use cameras because she values her privacy and THIS is the PERFECT solution. It was super easy to install on her water heater and alerts me right away when there isn't activity in my grandma's home. If anyone else is in a similar situation to me I'd highly recommend CarePenguin!

Ever since my dad died, it's worried us that Mom lives alone. She insists on driving, and when she's out visiting friends, we asked her to text us that she got home safely. She refuses, saying that she forgot. I searched online for a solution, and I found CarePenguin. Now, once Mom's home, I can tell that she rinses her dishes and washes her face before bed, and I don't have to be intrusive or imply that I don't trust her driving. I can't say enough about this great product!

Great device! Easy to install, unobtrusive, and helped my parents live independently for longer.
