RUDY'S RUG CLEANING

Charlottesville, VA | Since the 1960s

Saturday Front Desk Associate

Part-Time | Saturday 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM | $20–$22/hour | Charlottesville, VA

About Rudy's Rug Cleaning

Rudy's Rug Cleaning is Charlottesville's only specialized rug cleaning service, trusted by homeowners for decades to care for their most valuable rugs — from fine wool and silk to antique Persian and oriental pieces. We take pride in treating every rug, and every customer, with expertise and care.

About the Role

We're looking for a warm, detail-oriented person to cover our Saturday morning shift. This role is a great fit for anyone who wants consistent, predictable part-time income without it taking over their life — you're done by noon, every week.

Whether you're a student, a young parent, or simply looking for reliable extra income that works around your schedule, this is a role where you can show up, do meaningful work, and still have your day ahead of you.

You'll be the face of Rudy's for our customers — handling drop-offs, returns, scheduling, and payments. This is a small but important role: you'll often be working independently, so reliability and good judgment matter.

What You'll Do

• Greet customers and manage rug drop-offs and pick-ups
• Carefully inspect and document incoming rugs, noting any pre-existing condition issues
• Answer phones and schedule pick-up and delivery requests
• Process payments and close out transactions
• Represent Rudy's with professionalism — including handling questions about our services and pricing with confidence

What We're Looking For

• Prior customer service or hospitality experience — retail, restaurants, front desk, campus jobs all count
• Detail-oriented — you notice things and write them down
• Comfortable working independently and using good judgment
• Reliable: this is a solo shift, so showing up consistently is the most important thing
• Warm, professional manner with customers
• Comfortable with basic computer use for scheduling and payments
• Veterans encouraged to apply.

Compensation & Schedule

• $20–$22 per hour, based on experience
• Every Saturday, 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM — done by noon, weekends still yours
• A few paid weekday training shifts to get you fully up to speed
• Consistent, predictable hours — easy to plan around whatever else is on your plate
• Ideal candidate is staying in Charlottesville this summer — for the right person, there's opportunity to pick up additional weekday hours and hands-on cleaning work as the season gets busy
