About the Family

We are representing a lovely executive couple in Montara, California. They are kind, thoughtful, and generous, and they want to hire someone they can truly invest in long-term—someone who will feel valued and supported in the role.

The Role

This is a hands-on, detail-driven housekeeping position in a 4,500 sq. ft. luxury home. The ideal candidate takes pride in doing things the right way—thoroughly, proactively, and consistently. This is not a "quick tidy" role; the family is looking for a housekeeper who is comfortable with deep cleaning and who has high standards.

Key Responsibilities

• Full-charge housekeeping for a large private home (high attention to detail)
• Deep cleaning (not just surface-level): kitchens, bathrooms, floors, baseboards, dusting, etc.
• Laundry, ironing, and linen care (wash, fold, press, put away)
• Organization of household areas (closets, cabinets, pantries, etc.)
• Grocery shopping and errand support
• Light cooking support as needed (simple meal prep or basics)
• Maintain household supplies and notify the family of needs (cleaning products, paper goods, etc.)
• Flag repairs/maintenance issues and help keep the home running smoothly
• Window cleaning, inside and outside (accessible windows)

Future Dog Support

The family plans to get a small dog in the future. The housekeeper should be comfortable helping with light pet-related tasks when that happens, such as:

• Feeding the dog
• Taking the dog outside on a leash

Compensation & Benefits

• $45–$55/hour DOE
• Healthcare compensation/health benefits
• 9 paid vacation days
• Paid sick time
• Access to a retirement plan
• Discretionary year-end bonus

Required Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience as a housekeeper in a luxury hotel and/or large luxury private home
• Highly meticulous with strong deep-cleaning skills
• Professional, dependable, and able to take ownership of the home
• Strong verbal English skills
• Local to the area with a reliable vehicle
• Authorized to work legally in the United States
• Willing to complete an in-depth background check
• Stellar references from prior employers
• No smoking or vaping
• Must be a dog lover!

Physical Requirements

• Stand, walk, bend, kneel, and reach for extended periods
• Lift and carry up to 30–40 lbs (laundry, supplies, small household items)
• Climb stairs and use step stools safely
• Perform repetitive motions (vacuuming, mopping, wiping, and ironing)
