Awesome mod! One question - is it possible through a mod (such as Master Controller) to get her to wear a different outfit? Or is the housekeeper considered an "object" and can't be changed that way?

You did it again! Another useful, fun mod :-)

This looks amazing! One question though - under the "Uninstall Instructions", you mention waiting until the gardeners leave. Does this mod also cover gardening services? And if so, do the harvested items go into the family inventory, or how exactly does that work?

Oh, thank you! And with this new option for a clean and neat home, a big thanks from my neurotic sims who always freak out around Bonehilda. Now they can have a maintenance free home as well!

^This so much!

So this works a bit like Bonehilda, won't have needs that be satisfied. Yay! I hope it will not try to take care of the kids or pets. I have the perfect little room it can live in and another plus, it will eat some of that excess income my sims tend to make. Adding the special room for that little urchin now. Thank you very much.

I'm so happy that you found the time to bring this service is back. Thank you so much! Just a little hint. In your uninstall instructions you wrote "wait until the gardeners leave". I suppose that's a copy/paste from your Gardener mod and should rather be "wait until the housekeeper left".

Does her/he do anything with pets and babies? Nice mod, thank you!

I'm so happy to see the return of the Live-In Maid in a new incarnation! Thank you so much for your awesome work as always! Does this mean our prayers for the return of the live-in chef may follow? That would just be the icing on the proverbial cake!

Hi douglasveiga, I really like this mod, and I translated the strings into Chinese.
Here is the translation for both CHI-CN and CHI-TW, in case you need it.
Thanks again for your great work! :lovestruc

Awesome! I love it! But, I think, standing at the light for hours is a bit creepy. Maybe you'll make housekeepers sitting in a houskeeper service armchair insteed? It will be more realistic.

I believe it's possible.

I fixed the information. The housekeeper doesn't garden.

I updated the Chef mod a couple weeks ago.

I could do it, but the worker might stay several hours sitting instead of working. That is what happens with Butlers and Resort Maintenance.

Cool! IMO it's still better then standing without rest like a walker from Walking Dead.

And I was so excited, I translated the stings too. Into RUS-RU. I hope Google Drive is ok.

Thank you so much! This is exactly what I was looking for so I don't have to keep track of what needs fixing.

Ha ha ha! I just had an image of a zombie cleaning house. Now THAT would be fun to do for an evil witch - use NRaas MC to change the appearance to a zombie, so he/she can have an undead cleaning the house! Awesome!

Gonna do it right now!

It's a great idea for apocalyptic worlds.

I wonder, do these housekeepers sleep? Can we assign bed to them as with Butlers? Or they sleep randomly? ... Or they stay on 24/7 without being tired either?

I work for a living, but I don't necessarily live for a working.

Hi douglasveiga! Loving your mod. Is it possible for the housekeeper to leave a serving of food out for a longer period of time before they come rushing to put it in a fridge? I have the synthesizer food maker thingy and roommates have been making servings but not have time to grab a plate before the housekeeper puts it in the fridge. This results in a lot of food in the fridge. Thank you! Wonderful mod!
