About CareGuide

Founded in 2012 by John Philip Green, CareGuide is a Canadian company that operates a portfolio of online marketplaces for caregivers.

Green's personal experiences as a new father, homeowner, and the son of an ailing parent led him to create the platform. He found the process of finding reliable care for his family's needs to be overwhelming and inefficient, which sparked the idea for CareGuide. His background as the Founder & CTO at Savvica provided him with the technical expertise to build the platform.

The company operates as a two-sided marketplace, connecting families seeking care with a network of providers. The business model is based on a subscription fee paid by caregivers to feature their profiles and connect with families. CareGuide's portfolio of services includes dedicated platforms for child care, elder care, pet sitters, and housekeepers, catering to a wide range of domestic needs. This specialized approach allows the company to address the specific requirements of different care-seeking segments.

In July 2023, John Philip Green transitioned from his role as CEO to Chairman, passing the leadership to his longtime business partner, Ali H Dinani.
