How Ridesharing Empowers Seniors to Stay Mobile

Picture this: You’re dressed up, ready to meet a friend for dinner, but traffic reports warn of major delays, the weather looks rough, and you can’t find your keys. The thought of driving feels stressful.

Instead, you decide to request a ride with GoGoGrandparent. Within minutes, a professional driver arrives at your door, gets you safely to your destination, and you never even needed to open an app.

That’s the power of ride sharing for seniors—a flexible, safe, and affordable transportation service that helps older adults and people with disabilities stay active and independent.

Benefits of Ride Sharing for Seniors

1. Independence Without Driving Stress

Maintaining independence is crucial for seniors' emotional well-being. Ridesharing empowers them to retain their freedom of movement, even if they stop driving.

Whether it’s a doctor’s appointment, grocery shopping, or visiting friends, GoGoGrandparent makes it easy to book reliable rides with just a phone number—no apps required.

GoGoRides are a key part of the services offered by GoGoGrandparent, giving seniors a hassle-free option for getting around town.

2. Accessible Transportation for People with Disabilities

GoGo understands that accessibility matters. Through GoGoGuardians, we match seniors and people with disabilities with vehicles and drivers that fit their specific mobility needs.

Whether you require a larger vehicle for space or door-to-door assistance, GoGo helps make every ride comfortable and safe.

Want help with your grocery shopping? Check out our Senior Grocery Shopping Help program.

3. Safety and Peace of Mind

GoGo takes extra care with ride safety. We monitor every trip in real time and vet drivers for high ratings and customer satisfaction.

Caregivers can even follow along with GoGo’s Family Features for added peace of mind.

If you’re curious about how we prioritize rider safety, read more on how GoGo is an extension of your care team.

4. No Car Ownership Headaches

From maintenance and insurance to unpredictable repair costs, car ownership can get overwhelming. GoGo helps seniors avoid these expenses.

5. Flexible Scheduling—On Your Terms

Whether you want to request a ride days in advance or need last-minute transportation, GoGo offers scheduling flexibility. Unlike public transit or community shuttles, GoGo works around your calendar.

If you’re considering your options, check out our guide on Alternatives to Driving for Seniors.

6. Budget-Friendly and Transparent Pricing (Including Our Concierge Fee)

GoGoGrandparent uses a concierge fee model, meaning we charge a small, predictable fee to coordinate and monitor your ride—on top of standard rideshare rates.

This fee covers services like driver vetting, live ride monitoring, and personalized support from our GoGoGuardians. Our goal is to deliver maximum value, safety, and convenience with no hidden costs.

For seniors and caregivers alike, this creates a reliable, budget-friendly service for seniors without surprise charges.

7. Social Connections on Every Ride

Many seniors enjoy conversations with their drivers, turning each ride into a chance for social engagement. Staying mobile doesn’t just mean reaching a destination—it means staying connected to your community.

How Does GoGoGrandparent Work?

GoGo operates as a concierge-style service for seniors. You simply call our phone number at +1 (855) 464-6872, and our team manages everything:

  • Scheduling your ride
  • Matching you with a qualified driver
  • Monitoring your trip
  • Providing caregiver updates

Whether it’s a quick errand, a medical appointment, or a social visit, GoGo removes tech barriers so you can enjoy worry-free transportation.
