When you say "care-giver"...the owner is present and they are taking care of him/her?
Or are they "care-takers" watching a property for the owner? I only mention it because of "Holmes on Homes" episode a few years ago. Renters had set up a growing operation. The owner returns to find black mold throughout the house (I guess it takes a lot of moisture to grow the stuff) requiring a total stripping of the drywall/insulation and mold remediation. Worse yet is they had tapped into the electrical supply before the meter (braver that I am...that's live power). I don't know how she settled with the power company when the gave her the bill for their estimate of the power usage which I'm sure was not padded in any way.
If the latter and you know the owner and consider him/her a friend, then maybe a FYI call is in order. Otherwise MYOB I guess.
