About Our Family

We are a warm, dual-career family with two energetic school-aged boys and a one-year-old Rottweiler puppy we love dearly. Both parents work full-time executive roles outside the home, and our days start early and move quickly. With busy professional lives and an active household, we’re seeking a proactive, sensible, and long-term part-time household professional to partner with us in creating an organized, well-managed, and peaceful home environment.

Our family leads with gratitude, faith, and respect — and we’re looking for someone who shares that spirit in their daily work. We value professionalism, discretion, and clear boundaries.

This role is designed to bring calm, order, and reliability to our daily routines — helping clear mental space so we can focus on what matters most: enjoying quality time together as a family.

Who You Are / What We’re Looking For

You are proactive, detail-oriented, and intuitive — someone who anticipates needs before they’re asked. You take initiative, love systems, and notice the little things that make a big difference in a busy family’s day.

You’re comfortable working in a household with school-aged kids, and you know how to set firm boundaries while maintaining a kind, fun environment. You not only love dogs, but have experience upholding a set of training and behavioral standards with them. Experience with large breeds preferred. You bring warmth, professionalism, and plenty of common sense to everything you do. You stay grounded, practical, and solution-focused — keeping the household running smoothly without overcomplicating things.

Our ideal candidate is dependable, organized, and eager to become part of the household team — not just an employee, but a valued and trusted presence in our home.
