With a hybrid schedule and regular travel, we're happiest when home runs like a well-orchestrated machine — calm, polished, and handled.We're also in the middle of a major renovation, which means our days include a steady rotation of contractors, cleaners, landscapers, and deliveries. We're organized, detail-driven, and high-standard in the best way: things have a place, and we love when the home looks (and feels) put together.And then there are our "boys"—two 100-pound Rhodesian Ridgebacks with big hearts and bigger energy. They're not aggressive, just large, lively, and deeply loved.
They anchor our daily rhythm, and caring for them well is non-negotiable.Our adult children and grandkids visit often, and we genuinely enjoy hosting — from casual family dinners to the occasional client gathering. Our home reflects who we are: intentional, welcoming, and well cared-for. Inclusivity and respect are core values here, and we're looking for someone who will become a trusted, steady extension of our household over time.Who You Are / What We're Looking ForYou are sharp, proactive, and deeply detail-oriented. You notice when the books on the shelf are crooked and straighten them without being asked. You take initiative, solve problems independently, and know when to loop in the family versus handle something yourself.
You read the room and communicate in a way that is effective and efficient — never creating noise, always adding value.You genuinely love dogs. You are comfortable managing two large, athletic dogs on walks and are not intimidated by their size. You bring good energy into the home and work with a quiet confidence that earns trust over time.You are someone who thrives in active and dynamic environments. You have a schedule that offers natural flexibility. Weekend availability is a plus, as is the rare ability to travel with the family to watch the dogs when they head out of town.Key ResponsibilitiesPet CareMorning feeding daily; occasional evening feedingTwo walks per day (morning and midday, 20-30 minutes each)Administer medications (pills in food and a serum)Maintain pet supply inventoryOccasional brushingDog waste pickup in the yard as neededProvide fresh waterOccasional overnight care when family travelsHousehold Organization & MaintenanceMaintain existing household organization systems with attention to detailDaily resets of the home, including kitchen, laundry area, and main living spacesPrep the home for weekly cleanersLight tidying: dishes cleaned and put away daily, kitchen counters wiped down, vacuuming high-traffic areas, taking out trashSeasonal swaps: décor, bedding, holiday decorationsIndoor plant careChange batteries, light bulbs, and smoke detectors as neededEvent and holiday prep: client dinners, family gatherings, and holidaysVendor & Property OversightServe as the on-site contact for weekly cleaners, landscapers, pool service, and contractorsManage vendor schedules and communicate priority items and problem areasCoordinate with cleaners on deep clean needs (ceiling fans, refrigerator, oven, pantry, baseboards, vacuum, etc.)Support upcoming garage organization project by coordinating with the design teamManage outdoor spaces: wipe down outdoor kitchen, maintain outdoor furniture covers, occasional pool skimming as neededInventory & ErrandsRestock pantry, fridge, and household supplies; manage running supply listsGrocery shopping (transitioning from family to house manager over time)Manage household orders and subscriptions (Amazon, Chewy, etc.)Handle returns, dry cleaning drop-off and pickup, gift shopping and wrappingSort mail, unpack and put away deliveries, break down boxes and recyclePurchase and replace fresh flowers regularlyLaundry & LinensWash, fold, and organize laundry with careful attention to garment care (what goes in the dryer vs.
