Ranch Domestic Management Couple Team - Taylorsville, CA

Seeking a warm, reliable, and trust-worthy Housekeeper/Gardener couple team to fill two positions caring for the main house and gardens on a privately-owned working ranch. The property is located in a valley in the Sierra Mountains near Taylorsville, California.

This position requires one to be physically able to work outdoors in all types of weather, in and on uneven terrain, in high-elevation (3800’). Candidates must have a minimum of 5 years’ experience and knowledge of seasonal gardening, sprinkler systems, and be able to safely operate a tractor, truck, other recreational vehicles, and equipment including power and hand tools. Candidates must be able to maintain and clean gutters, so cannot be afraid of heights. Candidates must have experience in fleet management (to include cleaning and managing repair) of passenger and recreational vehicles. The second caretaker position's duties include guest meal planning, food purchase, food preparation, serving formal meals to owners and guests, as well as cleaning and upkeep of the 14,000 square foot main home. Candidates must be teamwork, and service-oriented and communicate well in English and/or Spanish.

Candidates must be flexible with work schedules. While owner and guests are off-site, work hours are typically 8-hour days. While owner or guests are in residence, staff will be required to work adjusted schedules to accommodate their needs. The team will be expected to keep property at guest-ready level at all times throughout the year regardless of owner’s schedule.

Onsite schedule is often over the holidays, including Christmas, New Years, Easter, Presidents Day, and Memorial Day. Please note that the Ranch team will need to be available on and during those holidays when owners are in residence.
