- Perform routine hot tub inspections and maintain proper water chemistry
- Refill hot tub chemicals and report any issues

- Perform periodic property walkthroughs between guest stays
- Complete small handyman repairs around the property

- Comfortable using a smartphone to communicate, complete checklists, and send photos

Schedule & Availability
This is an as-needed, part-time position, averaging up to approximately 5 hours per week, depending on the property's needs.
Because this position supports an active vacation rental, we're looking for someone who lives nearby and is generally available to respond within a reasonable timeframe when issues arise. Some weeks may only require routine hot tub checks or trash service, while others may involve additional maintenance tasks, property walkthroughs, or guest-related requests.
What We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who enjoys taking ownership of a property and notices the little things before guests do. The ideal candidate is dependable, responsive, and proactive—someone who can identify small issues, take the initiative to resolve them when appropriate, and communicate larger concerns to our operations team before they become bigger problems.
If you're someone who takes pride in your work, enjoys solving problems, and wants to help keep a beautiful vacation rental in top condition, we'd love to hear from you.
