House Sitter in Chicago, Illinois

Hi! My name is Octavian. I am seeking a residence caregiver position in the Chicago area. I have a flexible schedule as I am relocating from Ohio and looking for more opportunities. I aim to utilize my skills towards keeping your place as you like it! I adapt quickly to new environments and to new requests. The services that I provide include, but are not limited to: Appropriately securing homeowners’ houses at the end of each day, which includes shutting windows, closing curtains or blinds, locking doors, and setting up alarm systems. Caring for homeowners’ pets as required, which includes providing them with food and water, cleaning up after them, and scheduling veterinarian appointments should they fall ill. Watering indoor plants in accordance with the instructions provided by the homeowners. Performing basic housecleaning duties, which includes mopping, sweeping, vacuuming, and dusting as needed. Performing pool maintenance tasks, which includes skimming leaves and debris off the surface, scrubbing the sides of the pool, cleaning out the filter basket, as well as testing and adjusting water chemical levels. Answering telephone calls, providing information authorized by homeowners, and relaying important information to homeowners. Washing and changing bedding at the end of each house sitting job. Contacting the appropriate service providers to repair problematic plumbing and air conditioning systems. I strongly believe that a collaboration would prove beneficial for both myself as home carer, and for you as homeowner. Please do not hesitate to contact me about any questions you might have, as well as about how and when I can step in to help. Thank you. Octavian
