$20.00/hr Reasons to Join Arbor The schedule already makes sense if you work nights — Thursday-Saturday, 11:00 PM-9:00 AM is a natural fit for someone who already operates on a non-traditional schedule. No forcing yourself into a daytime routine you don't keep. A second shift option for weekend availability — Saturday-Sunday, 9:00 AM-3:00 PM works for overnight workers whose weekend mornings are open after wrapping a Friday night shift. $20.00/hr for work that matches the care and consistency you already bring to overnight roles — this is direct, relationship-focused support with adults who need a steady, calm presence.
