A private household is seeking a mature, discreet, and highly reliable full-time housekeeper to maintain a large residence (15,000 sq. ft. on 6.2 acres). The ideal candidate is someone who takes pride in their work, enjoys caring for a well-kept home, loves animals (especially cats and dogs), and is seeking a long-term position with a kind and respectful employer.
This is a low-drama, quiet home environment best suited for someone who is detail-oriented, self-directed, honest, and appreciates structure and routine. You should be comfortable working independently in a large home where the principal is often busy or working on the property.
