So wait, you are a tax expert & gave INCORRECT information?
A pet sitter/dog walker is:
*not providing the tools
*not determining the hours
*not in control of the work, as they are being directed by the person who hired them
*is working in the home of the person
*is providing work in relation to the home/family
How is a pet sitter/dog walker NOT a household employee?
And please, it would be helpful if you had receipts (proof) from the IRS tax code that reflects anything that refutes what I have written.
BTW: Re Schedule H - those are “examples” as the text itself reflects. The DEFINITION is what defines household employee. I think it may be wise to edit your initial response.
