Most of us are aware of a variety of bdsm activity checklists. With  my Sir, we found it very helpful in opening and directing communication ...as I am very new to this life. It allowed us to cut through the stuff neither us had any interest in and get to the "good" stuff.

I am seeking a similar checklist for service to dominants.  Yes, I am lazy (I prefer the word "efficient") and have no desire to reinvent the wheel, if some other smart girl has already typed one up...in Excel, no less.   I am aware that there will be specifics to each Dominant. (Hey, my Sir smiled when I asked him if I could ADD things to the bdsm activity checklist.)

Are there any other "organization freak" types submissives/slaves out there that have this checklist hiding on their hard drive?

best!

Not exactly sure what you're looking for, but here's a list of service areas I'd appreciate.

Mechanic. Simple things that are needed to keep a vehicle in running order are good to know. If you happen to be a master mechanic, that is a highly valuable service to me.

Maid service. This is one of the best domestic services you can offer me. This area includes things like picking up after me, making the beds in the morning and basic household cleaning.

Laundry. If you think doing laundry means gathering up whatever clothes are on the floor and throwing them all in the washer, you have some reading to do.

Ironing. you'd be surprised how many can NOT do this well. However, there’s a very humorous book on the market to help you.

Leather care. My leather wardrobe and toy collection are growing. They need maintenance and care.Boot care. I am a boot person. Even the feminine heels I wear on the rarest of occasions are boots. Boot care and worship is a service that I enjoy very much. My blacking skills are adequate, but I’d welcome someone who can do it as good as or better than me.

Cooking. At least learn my favorite dishes. Lucky for you, I grew up on simple food, most of which can be either made in 30 min or thrown in a crock pot.

Pet service. Keep up with the kitty’s food, water and litter boxes.

Pet grooming can beneficial as well. Feeding the fish every couple of days might keep the fish happy, too, or at least alive. Check about what other pets we have in the household, too.

Secretary. If you have a really good memory, I really need someone to remind me who people are. Also, this area includes taking notes about who said they'd do what, keeping a calendar for me and sorting snail mail. Other areas include doing the tiresome chores like thank you notes, invitations, Christmas cards and such that, in "polite society", should be hand written. This is only if I get around to actually gathering a Christmas card list. A birthday card list is much more likely.  

Personal Buyer. Go shopping for me. This can also include errands (picking up dry cleaning, mail, etc).

Formal Protocol. Learning to serve when I am in a formal setting or among other Masters. Things like offering drinks (hot and cold) and food unobtrusively, holding things, etc. Always watch for the coat/jacket coming off and NEVER let it hit the floor!

Butler/Major Domo. While a true Butler’s primary task is to run the household, including overseeing the staff, simple things you can do right away include answering the door, answering the phone (to screen calls) and welcoming/serving guests.

Lawn care/gardening. If you like to be outdoors, I like to have the lawn maintained and pretty flowers/trees blooming. The more you can make it look like a manicured golf course, the happier I will be! 

Massage. There’s several different kinds of massage, the most popular being clinical, deep tissue and sensual.

Other alternate therapies. Reflexology, aromatherapy, tea therapy, chi energy therapy and Reiki. you might consider also learning about herbs, vitamins and minerals. If you do, we will discuss the prescription meds that I am on to look at possible interactions.

Manicures and Pedicures. It would be especially handy if you can learn to do acrylic nails. Master Fire

Master Fire,

Thank you. I will be combining the posts to this thread with that of those on how to spoil a Master to come up with my checklist.

For clarification, what I am looking for is sort of a list of the areas that in which Dominants appreciate service. It would be similar to the check list that appears here on Collar Me about the activities, bdsm and otherwise, that one enjoys.

I apprecitate any input, especially from Dominants-- about what kinds of things they enjoy.

best!

Have you thought about just creating a checklist of things that you have some knowledge and/or skills in and approach your dominant with that list as a starting point?  I'm not really sure what a generic list would do for you, when I think when first integrating service into a relationship its best to start with what you know (and can do well).

Also, observing the things he seems to not enjoy doing or not have time to do is a good first place to start in areas to offer service.

this is a wonderful start of what a (IMO) service slave should know.

Christina Abernathy wrote a book and a work book for slaves, they are called:

1) Miss Abernathy's ConciseSlave Traning Manual
2) Training With Miss Abernathy: a workbook for erotic slaves and their owners

the Training Manual goes over all these things and more. it could help you make your list.

Besides sexual service, things I do for him that he either can't or doesn't want to include laundry, fetching him drinks without asking him what he wants - if the glass is empty I refill it, simple mending. I darn socks, not the cheap ones but the expensive wool socks we wear up here during winter. I sew buttons back on shirts, repair pockets when he catches them on something and it rips. He'd never seen anyone darn a sock before and really appreciated not losing one of his favorite pairs.

We're not high protocol, we're both single parents so efficiency is more appreciated than grace. I don't serve his tea on a tray, but I make sure that his cup is constantly refilled.
