If a light is out, you identify it and get it addressed.

If a package arrives, you take care of it.

If the dog needs to go outside, you take care of it.

If the homeowner needs transportation to a meeting, you're ready to go.

The expectation is that the property, vehicles, household tasks, and responsibilities entrusted to you are handled proactively and professionally.

• Early-morning transportation
• Airport transportation
• Short-notice schedule changes
