Sage Haus•Miami, FL

About The Position

We’re a busy family of three in Miami with a spirited young child and a sweet medium-sized dog. With two busy corporate careers and frequent work travel, life can move quickly, and we’re looking for someone special who can help bring a little more ease and organization to our everyday routine. While we need an extra set of hands with the practical side of keeping a home running — laundry, errands, light tidying and organization, meal support, school pick-ups and dog care — finding the right person is about much more than completing a list of tasks. We’d love someone who genuinely enjoys being around children and will take the time to build a relationship with our son. Being a dog lover is equally important — our dog is part of the family, and we want someone who is happy to have their care and companionship woven into the day. Above all, we’re looking for someone we can truly trust and rely on. Someone warm, observant, professional, and proactive who will get to know the rhythm of our household, anticipate what needs attention, and become a consistent presence in our lives.
