Here's some things I do take on:

While on vacation I feed the pets and make sure my dog goes to the bathroom (Max is neurotic, he will either gladly go or refuse and he only goes to the bathroom twice a day, though sometimes if he wants to go outside he'll go more than twice).

I clean the entire house (paid) every two weeks

My mom wants me in charge of the dishes.

I am beginning to cook for my parents, and now it is mother-daughter time to cook together.

I am doing more grocery shopping for my parents which they are loving because they say I am really good at coming up with ideas for snacks and dinner and it is one less thing for them to do.

Personal bills are: gas, auto insurance, phone, and cigarettes

Sometimes I pick up flea meds for pets and lately I am paying for my cat's dosage. Sometimes I take the cats to the vet.

I do extra chores for extra pay such as steam cleaning, pantry organization, organizing the garage, the blinds, any extra chores they request

Brush and wash max on occasion

EDIT: Of course, there's more I do but I can't think of it right now.


Something you can help me with is to help keep the house clean in between deep cleanings. I've tried writing the "do this on this day" but it can be overwhelming because I tend to take on too much at once. The biggest thing my mom wants is to keep the kitchen clean at all time, so that's the priority. But how would I go about making sure the rest of the house looks clean all the time? I'm not good at seeing something dirty and fixing it. Like dusting, I always forget to dust because I never see the dust. And when I was a housekeeper, I always forgot the mirror because I'd always see my reflection and not the dirty part.
