ABOUT GIVE A HOOT

I am often asked how the Give a Hoot Home Care name was created. And here it is! Owls... I love owls. And when the idea of my business was just an idea I knew my logo had to have an owl in it. Then I created the name based off of her. I wanted to encompass my thoughts on my care model and what I want to be remembered for.

It was then, I was sitting having tea, when I said "I Give a Hoot!"... and I knew then that I had made my name. 

Because, as cheesy as it is... " I GIVE A HOOT!"

Hello, and thank you for visiting my page. My name is Melissa Harrison. I am the sole Owner and operator here at Give a Hoot. I have been a care aide since 2009. Since then, I have worked in private, and government run organizations. With experience in both Home Care and Facility work. I have worked with many ailments and stages of aging, including dementia. For many years I pondered the Idea of starting my own home care business, but I was always too afraid of the what ifs. With the help emotionally, spiritually and... financially, I finally decided to take a leap of faith on myself and jump off the mountain. Turns out it was just a little hill! Since then I have been stress-free and happy.

​

Why did we choose Quesnel? 

My husband was born and raised here. And he wanted to return to his roots. So after much discussion we decided to leave my home town for his. Since we have been here I have witnessed the generosity of residents ready and willing to speak of my arrival... and for that I am eternally grateful! so, thank you Quesnel, for the warm welcome!
