Is this a friend? Payment should have been discussed 2 years ago.
Difficult to get "back pay"
If the POA does not agree to pay you then you need to either accept that you are going to be without income OR you walk away. Tell the sister "I'm sorry I can not do this any longer without being paid. You will have to find someone else to care for --------"
No need to give notice just pack your stuff and go.

Why have you stayed with this person and are caring for her for 2 years, if you're not getting paid to do so?
Is it because you're living there rent free, and have a roof over your head?
How are you eating, and buying needed items for yourself if you have no money?
So if the sister who controls all the money, thinks that because you live there rent free that she's doing you a favor, she is sadly mistaken.
She must also pay you an hourly rate for your 24/7 care, at a fair market price.
And if she's not willing to do that, then you need to give your 2 weeks notice and you go out and get a real job that actually pays you, and move out.
I'm still confused why you have stayed so long with not getting paid.
I'm guessing that there's a lot more to your story than what you've shared.

Are you a roommate or did you agree to be a live-in in exchange for rent? Were you a roommate that inadvertently turned into a caregiver?

What state are you in?

Oh my! Do you have receipts of things you’ve purchased or spent? Maybe you need to start documenting every day and everything! Talk to the sister and ask to be paid or you are leaving…
