What are some common challenges faced by live-in luxury house sitters, and how can they be managed?

Live-in luxury house sitters often face challenges such as maintaining high standards of cleanliness, handling advanced home technology, and ensuring the security of valuable property. Managing these challenges requires attention to detail, adaptability, and excellent communication with homeowners to clarify expectations. Many luxury homes have specific protocols for care (such as pool or garden maintenance), so being proactive in learning and following these guidelines is essential. Building trust with the homeowner and responding quickly to any issues can help ensure a smooth and successful house-sitting assignment.

This arrangement can also offer house sitters unique accommodations and experiences in exchange for their services.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Live In Luxury House Sitter, and why are they important?

If you are a self-starter, able to work independently, and can manage a changing schedule, this may be the job for you!
Job Description
We are currently hiring for Overnight House-Sitter/Pet-Sitters. **We are especially interested in House-sitters available during our busiest time of year -- winter holiday break -- sometime between 12/23-1/2.
This position requires OVERNIGHT STAYS (sleeping over in a client's home) with the client's animals. Each overnight stay begins from the dinner period (arrival between 5-7pm) and continues until the morning period (departure between 7-9am). Please note: House-sitters are NOT able to bring guests with them into the client's home during their stay.
House-sitting includes:
  • walking the dog(s)
  • feedings
  • medications if necessary
  • maintaining each animal's routine.
  • House-sitting may also include other pet-sitting or vacation care tasks such as bringing in the mail/newspaper, plant care, cleaning up messes (ie: hairballs, accidents), and keeping the home in order while the clients are away.

Fees
The base rate paid to a house-sitter for each night of house-sitting is $32.50 for one dog and goes up from there depending on client surcharges. There are extra fees given to the house-sitter for additional animals in the home, extra visits scheduled during the daytime, and for holidays. (Potential gratuity from clients is not reflected in this rate.)
Scheduling
House-sitting jobs last anywhere from 1 night to 2 weeks. House-sitters typically will take one booking per month. They may take on more bookings depending on their availability and client requests.
House-sitters are independent contractors with Heaven Sent and are offered client "bookings" as clients schedule vacation care with us. House-sitters work on an "as-needed" basis and accept or reject each booking on an individual basis.
HolidaysOur preference is that house-sitters are available for at least 2 out of 3 of our busiest holidays (Thanksgiving, Christmas/New Years, Spring Break). There is an extra surcharge paid to sitters for holiday work.
Qualifications
Qualifications
  • Background & References: You need to be at least 21 years old, able to pass a background/criminal check, and have at least 3 references.
  • Supplies & Equipment: You need to have: (1) a reliable car, (2) a computer/laptop/tablet with access to the internet, (3) a printer or access to one (4) a smartphone
  • Location: We are most interested in candidates who live in or around our service areas in Evanston, Wilmette, or Kenilworth.
  • And of course, we expect that you love animals! Working with animals can be an extremely rewarding and fun job and we are looking for candidates whose priority is providing quality care to our furry clients and their owners. You don't have to have any professional animal work experience, but we find it helpful if you've had pets of your own before.

Is this a good fit for you? We are looking for candidates who:
  • Are organized and detail-oriented.
  • Are dependable, trustworthy, timely, and professional.
  • Have great customer service and communication skills.
  • Are team players who can handle last-minute changes and requests from clients.
  • Are self-starters able to work independently and responsibly.
  • Enjoy dog-walking outside in all four seasons and the weather that comes with them! (Rain, snow, heat, cold, wind...)
  • Can make at least a 6-month commitment to working with us. We view this position as long-term supplemental income, not temporary or seasonal.

Additional Information
We look forward to hearing from you!
