The work
Tasks this hire takes
A virtual assistant for short-stay managers runs guest messages, turnovers and the calendar.
The manager still sets the rate and the house rules.
Two jobs shape a normal week for short stay managers: Reply to guest messages from the template, and update the calendar in Guesty or Hospitable. Firms hire for that rhythm, not for an empty inbox.

Flag damage for the manager to price. If the hire has not used Guesty, Hospitable or the channel manager, the first month for short stay managers includes learning it, and the principal still reviews the output.
