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.

If you’re looking for related services near you, some of the most popular on Airtasker right now include End of Lease Cleaning, Apartment Cleaning, Maid Service, Steam Cleaning, and Couch Cleaning. Whatever you need done, you can post a task and get offers from local Taskers near you.

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.

Tina was a beautiful and caring experience to work with! She came punctually, she was very sweet and attentive to detail. A very kind and warm, nurturing energy and such a soothing soul to be around for my very overstimulating task I had at hand (reorganising my entire wardrobe). Would highly recommend Tina!

Auburn NSW 2144, Australia

3rd Sep 2026

Cleaner needed tonight in Auburn. 2 bathrooms, kitchen, clothes folding Need this done tonight in Auburn, starting 6:30pm. Send me your total price for the whole job. Bring one person or two, whatever works for you, I just want one flat number. Bathroom 1: Full clean. Shower including screen, tiles and grout. Basin and vanity. Bathtub. Toilet, mirror, floor. Bathroom 2: There's a fair bit of stuff on the surfaces and shelves. Needs sorting and rearranging first, then a full clean. This one is the priority of the two. Kitchen: Cooktop degreased including the removable parts. Benchtop. Floor. The kitchen is small and tight, only about 3 people can stand in it, so the floor area is minimal. Oven interior not needed. Clothes: A full wardrobe's worth to be categorised and folded. This is a real chunk of the job, not an afterthought, so please factor it into your price . Bring your own products and equipment, including a degreaser for the cooktop and something that will shift soap scum off shower tiles. The budget shown is a guide only. Quote me your total for everything above. I'll go with the best offer, not the cheapest. Only offer if you can definitely start 6:30 pm tonight.

Amazing service at the last minute . They deserve the best reviews

Nothing too heavy duty ☺️ I’m just needing an extra pair of hands to help me get house sorted faster! 😊 Please send me a message if you’re available. Thank you! x Hourly rate $35

Help unpack and organise apartment

$220

Abbotsford VIC 3067, Australia

2nd Sep 2026

I'll be moving into a 2-bedroom apartment in Abbotsford this weekend and I'm looking for experienced unpacking/organising help to get everything set up quickly. Ideally looking for 2 people for approximately 4 hours on Sunday 6 September. The main priority will be unpacking and organising the kitchen, but I'd also love help with: * Unpacking and organising the kitchen, pantry and appliances * Unpacking books and putting them away in my TV unit * Putting clothes away in built-in wardrobes * Unpacking linen and towels and organising them into available storage/under-bed storage * Unpacking other straightforward household items * Making sensible use of cupboard and storage space * Flattening boxes and consolidating packing materials as we go I'll handle any particularly personal/private items myself, so those can simply be left boxed or put aside. I've downsized into an apartment, so I'd especially appreciate people who are good at organising and making efficient use of storage, rather than simply taking everything out of boxes. I'll be there to answer questions and make decisions about where things should go. Location: Abbotsford Date: Sunday 6 September Time: Flexible, after 11am Estimated duration: Approximately 4 hours Please let me know about your previous unpacking/home organising experience and whether you're applying individually or as a team of two.

Amanda was amazing! Friendly, efficient and so helpful with unpacking my entire home in so little time. Will absolutely hire again, thanks Amanda 🙏
