You have to think about what housecarls do before they get assigned to a Thane. She was probably a hold guard (who didn't take an arrow to the knee because she can still go into ruins and things like that) who was assigned to the dragonborn, because honestly, I could easily see someone applying to be a guard but a housecarl? Seems a bit strange.

In terms of the whiterun gaurds' views... "Stormcloaks, Imperials, Dragons; ain't no matter to me what I kill. Let them come".
