Senior Downsizing Assistance in Cottage Grove, WI
Caring Companion provides senior downsizing assistance to seniors in Cottage Grove, Wisconsin — patient, hands-on help sorting a lifetime of belongings and preparing for a move to a smaller home. In Cottage Grove that often means helping Cottage Grove seniors right-size while staying close to their small-town community. We are a family-run, non-medical eldercare service based in Sun Prairie, and the same caregiver comes back every visit.
What senior downsizing assistance includes
Downsizing is emotional work as much as physical work. We go room by room, at whatever pace feels manageable, sorting into keep, gift, donate and discard — and we stop to hear the story behind the things that have one.
Practical help comes with it: packing and labeling boxes, arranging donation drop-offs, measuring what will fit in the new space, and unpacking on the other end so the first night feels like home rather than a storage unit.
No one is rushed and nothing is thrown away without permission. Families often tell us the hardest part was starting — that is exactly the part we are there for.

“A few years after my husband passed and I was in my 90’s, keeping up with the house became overwhelming. Terri helps me stay organized and on top of things, picking up groceries, cooking an occasional meal, doing laundry, driving me to appointments, helping me with exercises, doing some downsizing, and whatever else I ask her to do. More importantly she brings companionship and brightens my week. She has enabled me to stay in my home.”
