(Alpha chi omega) We have a housemom who I'm pretty sure, isn't Greek. She used to be a housemom for Delta Chi and Kap Sig in New Mexico, among others. We think she's great.
Being non- Greek isn't an issue to us, even w/past housemoms, none were allowed at chapter, and all were requested to leave the house during initiation. Mom's apartment is connected through our foyer- she has her own bathroom and living room/cable, but since our house is really old she has to share the driveway as her parking spot.
Mizzou requires all fraternal organizations w/housing to have a 24 hr live in "babysitter", if you will. Kind of a rule that works nicely with our attempt at a dry campus...........
Personally i see the benefits to both a non- Greek and Greek housemom/dad. If not anything else, they'd be more likely to understand certain customs (dinner etiquette, serenades, etc.) Last year for about 5 months we had this woman who never really liked sororities. We nicknamed her Sweaty D b/c she'd always be running around the house yelling at us and sweating profusely. She just didn't understand why there were young men standing on our grass and flowers singing at such a late hour of the nite. (!).
