Founder & CEO

Laura A. Williams

Respitely™ was born from my own long-distance caregiving journey.

For years, I supported my mother from 2,000 miles away - navigating medical decisions, coordinating care, managing crises, and carrying the emotional and logistical weight that so many families shoulder alone. As a caregiver, conservator, and fiduciary, I learned firsthand how overwhelming it can be to find trusted in-home support when it’s needed most.

Along the way, one truth became clear: people genuinely want to help caregivers, but there hasn’t been a simple, trusted way to give real support.

I created Respitely™ to change that.

Through CareCredits™, I built the World’s First CareGifting™ Marketplace - a way to send real, vetted in-home care with the same ease and speed as sending flowers.

My mission is simple and bold: to ensure no caregiver ever walks this journey without support, and to make meaningful care accessible, giftable, and dignified for every family.
