Top Housekeepers related questions

A housekeeper can be responsible for a range of household tasks, from cleaning and organising, to laundry and cooking.
A housekeeper should be competent in completing basic household chores to a high standard. They should have meticulous attention to detail and be able to follow instructions.
Yes. Some household tasks may require trade specialists - this is generally beyond the skills of a housekeeper. Most housekeepers also focus on areas inside the home - not outside/garden maintenance.

Some people have a daily housekeeper, others get help in once a week, once a month, or just on special occasions to help them get caught up.

Housekeeping agencies are popular, but they don’t offer as much flexibility and control. Hiring a housekeeper directly means you can choose your preferred housekeeper, based on ratings, reviews, and skillsets.

The cost of housekeeping depends mainly on how many hours you’d like your housekeeper to work. On Airtasker, people typically spend $60-$150 on housekeeping services.

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.

Looking for someone easy to work with, non judgemental to help organise and declutter a home for $35 per hour. I have ADHD & ordered a skip bin but have not allowed myself enough time & am overwhelmed. Just needing someone to assist for a day or a few hours. No cleaning just sorting and helping with sorting, declutterig and moving items to skip bin & do what we can with the time we have. I’m really laid back and cruisy. Thanks so much ! Must be ok with inside dogs. They are friendly and won’t get in the way

I have yard a lot of airtaskers in my time but KACEY takes the cake. As someone with debilitating ADHD, Kacey was no judgemental, asked me about what I needed and what my struggles were and got straight to work. She is fast, thorough, efficient and open to all sorts of work from sorting, decluttering, cleaning etc! So easy to work with and she made me feel so comfortable. I will definitely see Kacey again.

Experienced organiser/cleaner needed for rent inspection prep

$400

Beckenham WA, Australia

17th Mar 2026

Looking for an experienced organiser and cleaner to help get my home ready for an upcoming rent inspection. The house is currently half unpacked, and with working full time while managing a chronic pain condition, I have not been able to get everything finished on my own. I have already made a start, and I am looking for someone who can look at what has been done so far, work out what still needs attention, and help get the house over the line. The property is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with two living areas. Tasks include unpacking remaining boxes, putting items away in sensible places, tidying and organising rooms, clearing and resetting surfaces, wiping down benches and other surfaces, cleaning the kitchen and both bathrooms, vacuuming, mopping, and helping bring the whole house up to a neat and inspection ready standard. This is not a full bond clean, though I do need someone who is confident with both organising and general house cleaning. Outdoor areas also need attention, including sweeping leaves and sand from the front and back patio areas and giving those areas a general tidy. I will be working from home on the day, and my son will be available to assist and give direction between 9.30 am and 3.00 pm, so availability during this window is ideal. I am looking for someone who is experienced, efficient, practical, and able to take initiative without needing constant direction. Please bring your own cleaning products and equipment. Please include a brief summary of your experience with similar organising and pre inspection cleaning work, along with your availability. Happy to answer any questions before assigning the task.

These two are fantastic! Very friendly and helpful, and did a fantastic job! Will absolutely be hiring them again and highly recommend others do the same!
