- 1 child (Junior High)
- $22.00 - $24.00 per hour
We currently have a regular assistant, but we are looking to build a relationship with a reliable Back-up Assistant who can step in when our primary sitter is not available. This is an "on-call" position for Monday through Friday. You will be responsible for:
• Feeding and providing fresh water for the dog and cats
• Walking the dog
• Scooping/cleaning litter boxes
• Loading/unloading the dishwasher and tidying up the kitchen area.
• Starting loads, drying, and folding clothes as needed.
• Weekly Cleaning (Fridays Only): If you are covering a Friday shift, the role includes a more thorough cleaning of the home
Reliability is #1:I have strict work deadlines. I need someone who understands that "on-call" still means showing up when scheduled. If an emergency happens, I require notification by 8:00 p.m. the night before
Requirements
- Comfortable with pets
Responsibilities
- Light housekeeping
- Light laundry
