Overview

A lovely couple in Phoenix, Arizona is seeking a full-time live-out housekeeper 40 hours per week to replace their beloved long-term housekeeper who is retiring. They truly value this person and are looking for someone who wants to stay with their family for years and years. As such, they are open to the perfect relocation candidate. The principals travel quite often and when they bring their dog with them, the work schedule will be more flexible at the house while they are gone. When they travel without the dog, the housekeeper will be expected to stay overnight at the house and provide pet care. The ideal schedule is Monday-Friday but they are flexible to accommodate schedule changes as long as there is advance notice.
