caretaker can be someone whose job is to look after a house or land while the person who owns it is not there. Janitor is one of caretakers.
caregiver is someone who takes care of a child or sick person. It isn't always free. You still have to pay fees to daycares or nursing homes if you have their services.

caretaker主要是講那些負責建築物或某些單位的人, 比如說負責整棟大樓的維修, 清潔及發信的人, 但如果用來當作政府的形容詞, 就變成是臨時政府的意思.
caregiver主要是指那些免費幫忙照顧病人的親朋好友

For those who get paid for taking care of others, they are usually called "care worker". "Caregiver" usually refers to your relatives or friends who support you or your family with disabilities, free of charge.
