- Assist the client during travel, including managing luggage, caring for the dog, and ensuring a smooth transition at each destination. Travel destinations may include the UK, France, the US, Ecuador, and beyond.
- Handle mail, deliveries, and coordinate logistics for occasional repairs. Communicate with maintenance personnel or property managers as needed.
Requirements
