Been working for the same lady for 4years now. I only work 10 hours/day. With hourly rates. She offered one of her rooms for me and my husband 3years ago. Since my husband was sick, we accepted her offer, I pay $525, utilities included.That way I could take care of both of them. My husband died 2 years ago. I am still the same rent amount. Never got paid for holidays, no day off. Sometimes I Eben give her my food. Sometimes I have to take care of her after hours and she calls me to help her, even though I am off duty already.
There are plenty of live-in caregiver jobs to look into.... do your financial homework before you quit.
