✔ Reliable transportation and willingness to travel throughout the Metro Atlanta Area, including running client errands using your personal vehicle

✔ Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to work without supervision

✔ Comfortable working in homes with allergens such as dust and pet dander, and in garages, attics, basements, and storage spaces in hot weather
