What does a housekeeping service include?

Housekeeping services can include one-off services or regular domestic tasks (daily, weekly, or fortnightly), from cleaning and cooking to even home maintenance. Your housekeeper will bring along all the products and equipment they need to clean and maintain your home - all you need to do is tell them what you need done. Here’s how they can help:


Cleaning 

The most common housekeeping service involves cleaning. This could include general cleaning, like vacuumingmoppingdusting, and bathroom cleaning. Or it might include detail cleaning tasks like couchcurtainfloorfridge, and rug cleaning. Depending on the number of tasks you’d like your housekeeper to complete, they may clean for just an hour, or up to the entire day. Your housekeeper will discuss a time that’s convenient for you, the tasks you need done, and the timeframe it should take to complete these tasks. If needed, they can bring their own cleaning supplies, like a vacuum cleaner and feather duster. 


Organising and tidying 

Many housekeepers offer professional organising services, where they help organise and tidy all areas of your home. This includes desks, filing cabinets, stationery, linen, wardrobes, toys, kitchen cupboards, garage interiors, and more. They’ll pull out all the items, organise them by category, and help you choose what you should keep, donate, or bin. They’ll also help by recommending suitable storage solutions to help you keep your home tidy for longer.


Cooking 

Some housekeepers are available to help with cooking in your home. They might prepare a few snacks, or help prep several meals ahead of time so you don’t have to worry about cooking. Your housekeeper will present menu and recipe options for you to choose from and use your ingredient and kitchen supplies to cook everything in your kitchen. Once they’re done, they’ll store the freshly cooked food (with heating instructions) and clean up any mess.


Laundry

Washing and ironing starting to pile up? Housekeepers can help by putting on loads of washing, hanging clothes, loading the dryer, folding washing, ironing, and even putting it away. They’ll check the care labels to ensure appropriate washing/drying methods are used before they start the process. With some extra help, you’ll be all caught up on the laundry in no time.


Home maintenance

Many housekeepers are skilled in basic household maintenance tasks. But if they’re unable to do the job themselves, they’ll help organise and oversee skilled contractors who can help do repairs and maintenance in and around your home.

Brunswick VIC 3056, Australia

15th Aug 2025

I have a large studio space full of bits that I’m struggling to find a home for. I’m looking for someone to help me implement systems and lead in the organisation of the space. I need someone with drive and initiative because I’m lacking it around this job! shouldn’t take more than a day with my help. Pictures paint a grim picture but it’s not quite as hectic as it looks The space used to be the main bin area and has historically been a dumping space for the rest of the studio, but after clearing everything out I want to make it practical! The space is used by a group of people, but is primarily my studio space, where we make large pieces for theatre and lots of props and bits for making. I want it to be inviting and organised and easy for me to put bits away! I have adhd and need some ways to avoid it building back up again and using the inbuilt storage effectively

Urgent: General helper (organise, tidy etc.)

$150

Elwood VIC 3184, Australia

26th Jul 2025

Urgent - General helper needed on hourly rate basis ($50 per hour). Number of misc. tasks I.e help organise and tidy, potentially run an errand such as drop off dry cleaning. Goal is basically to save me time, I can provide assistance/direction as required or we may even collaborate on the same task eg organising but someone with common sense, eye for organisation/initiative would be nice! You would be paid for your time not task completion, so more a matter of availability. Own car preferred. May not be necessary but it’s a plus. Could potentially drive my car in future. No set budget, a minimum 2 hours I suspect is needed today, but if you are efficient and autonomous probably have as many hours of work as you are available! May turn into a recurring task or even permanent role if you’re a good fit

Nice guy, efficient got the job done

I need someone proactive and very organised and meticulous to help me go through all my stuff and pack it and create an inventory list.

Only people that have read this description and respond without covering key requirements and just providing saved responses, will be ignored. There isn’t much there just kitchen will be the most time consuming.

Great to work with.

Help with Cleaning, Decluttering & Errands (Hourly)

$250

South Yarra VIC, Australia

23rd Jul 2025

Need someone to help clean, tidy, organise, declutter, and run a few errands (eg head to store buy groceries). I will be present to help out, embarrassingly disorganised uni student type mess i.e a few boxes of stuff from house move that need reorganising/tidying and likely half is junk. The core task is about 2- 3+ hours, but consider this just general in nature I.e paid hourly at $50/hr, can extend as needed. No need to finish everything, paying for your time not “doneness” as the task isn’t easy to define. Almost certainly will have jobs like this often. If you’re someone that enjoys organising, tidying, making things neat. (No limit on budget ie its hourly rate, so however long you’re free, I have easily got a few days worth of errands) Prefer taskers with own car, and either history on the app or ID verified

Excellent worker, efficient, professional and friendly
