A '''valet''' or '''varlet''' is a male [[Domestic worker|servant]] who serves as personal attendant to his employer. In the [[Middle Ages]] and [[Ancien Régime]], ''[[valet de chambre]]'' was a role for junior [[courtier]]s and specialists such as artists in a [[royal court]], but the term "valet" by itself most often refers to a normal servant responsible for the clothes and personal belongings of an employer, and making minor arrangements. In the United States, the term most often refers to a [[valet parking|parking valet]], and the role is often confused with a [[butler]].
