Why a couple brings advantages

A well-rehearsed domestic couple not only relieves two separate positions – it also ensures shorter communication channels, clear arrangements within the household, and stable conditions in everyday life. Especially on larger estates, a couple is often the more efficient and harmonious solution.

Long-term presence on-site

A domestic couple generally lives on-site and remains responsible for the household and the property even during your absence. This gives you peace of mind: your home is reliably managed, regardless of how often and how long you are away.

Frequently Asked Questions about Domestic Couples

What defines a domestic couple?

A domestic couple is a well-coordinated team—often a married couple or partners—who jointly manage an upscale private household. Typically, one person oversees housekeeping (cooking, laundry, cleaning, shopping), while the other handles driving services, caretaker duties, garden maintenance, or butler tasks. The specific division of responsibilities is tailored individually to your needs.

When is a domestic couple particularly worthwhile?

A couple is the ideal solution for larger estates, country properties, secondary residences, or rural households where a continuous on-site presence is desired. For families seeking long-term, trustworthy care for their property and daily organization, a couple is also often more practical than two separate employees.

How are living and working conditions usually arranged?

In most cases, the couple lives in a separate, self-contained apartment on the property or in the immediate vicinity. Room and board are generally provided. Working hours and responsibilities are clearly defined by contract—we are happy to advise you on drafting the contract.

How much does the placement of a domestic couple cost?

For the placement of a domestic couple, the fee for the person with the higher minimum gross annual salary is calculated according to the selected service package. For the second placed person, 50% of the corresponding fee is charged. Benefits in kind (accommodation, vehicle) are taken into account in accordance with the terms and conditions.
