Some of the workers were earlier series clones of the same girls that were the Dark Senshi. Some were the anthromorphic versions. Some were the mass cloned troops. Scattered about though, as nobody wanted to confuse things more than absolutely necessary - balancing with the superhuman abilities each group possessed.
Take the cheetah-girls for example. Tall blonde, short maned, fast as all get out. Reflexes that were truly extraordinary. Good fighters. They were the least inclined to turn into fumbling idiots around a cute guy, but they tended to eye the occasional guy still as well as the occasional girl. They were just pickier about the individuals they found attractive and less picky about the gender of that individual.
The ponytailed tigresses on the other hand, tended to be fierce and powerful and strong and melt down into affectionate puddles around a guy they liked.
The Overlord ordered one of his subordinates to play matchmaker with a large group of the various types. If they ended up with a Significant Other, then perhaps they'd settle down some. At least that was the hope.
What nobody figured on, to this extent at least, was that the Senshi being held in stasis would be getting feedback from not only the Dark Senshi, but from their various clones. The connection to the Dark Senshi was stronger than the ones to the lesser clones, but still there. And so the original Senshi dreamed.
For example, Ami Mizuno found herself dreaming of being a pet catgirl who was being petted most affectionately by someone named Ryo Urawa, though she had to convince him to use the collar and leash on her, and it would likely take her a lot of convincing to get him to play "lion tamer" with her. Apparently neko-Ami was rather playful and somewhat naughty.
As another example, Michiru Kaioh was discovering herself living a fulfilling life as a painter and artist and sculptor who happened to be a foxgirl. At least until the third day when she decided that the guy she had been partnered with was taking it too slowly and that she'd better take charge of the situation herself.
Frederick Flunky ("that's FrOderick") called to his assistant Inga and celebrated when that occurred, as most of the pairings he'd worked out were being monitored and the vast majority of them were engaged in activities that showed that the furries were indeed anatomically correct and compatible with humans. Sometimes several times within the same session.
That accounted for only a tiny number of the manor workers though. One of each of the furries, each working a particular duty at the manor. One of each of the clone troops, likewise employed. That still left a number of vacancies.
Of course, it was Nodoka who designed the uniforms, so as to display the various charms of the various girls.
It was also Nodoka who took over the indoctrination using one of the Overlord's Weird Science machines - the Imperative Overlay device (she liked the name for some odd reason) which assurred that even if an assassin had managed to sneak through all the screening processes that the only way she'd be able to kill her son would be through sexual exhaustion. Of course there were side-effects, but those could be fun too.
If Setsuna had been able to look from the Gates Of Time, she would have been interested to see that one of the now-fiercely-loyal girls working in a fairly sexy costume was someone that Ranma would have known from the previous timeline. In fact it was-
