About This Position

Please read before applying.

We wanted to provide you with a breakdown of the position. We are hiring subcontractors at the moment (1099).

Our primary work involves recurring residential cleanings, typically starting between 10 AM and 2 PM.

We are currently hiring for Professional Cleaner. The application below is set for that role.

Please note that this is a subcontract role (1099). A $50 refundable deposit is required to cover the background check and onboarding expenses. This deposit will be refunded to you as part of your first paycheck after successful completion of the trial period.

Background Check & Advisory

Important information about the application process.

Background Check Requirement

A background check is required to proceed with your application. A $50 refundable deposit covers the background check and onboarding expenses. This deposit is refunded as part of your first paycheck after successful completion of the trial period, which evaluates punctuality, communication, preparedness, and client satisfaction.

Earning Potential

You can earn up to $1,400-$5,000 per month after about 3-4 months with high availability*.

This is not a W-2 position where you will be assigned daily work. This is a 1099 independent contractor opportunity. During your trial period, expect approximately 2-3 cleaning appointments per week, usually 2-3 service hours each, not a full daily schedule. After the trial period, your schedule can grow as clients request you again and recurring appointments are built. Customer demand may still make some weeks lower or higher, and we do not promise a minimum number of appointments, service hours, or weekly or monthly income.

*This is an estimate based on what our current team members earn as of 2026. High availability means being available at least 4 out of 5 weekdays and the days you mark as available must be genuinely open. If you're assigned an appointment on a day you indicated you were free, you must actually be available. Actual earnings depend on customer demand, the number of cleanings you accept and complete, client satisfaction, client retention, economic conditions, marketing conditions, seasonality, true scheduling availability, and performance standards. These figures are not a promise of income.

Important: Because we service private homes, the client has the final say over who they allow into their property and whether they commit to a recurring cleaning schedule. Your earning potential is directly tied to client satisfaction and retention. The better the experience you deliver, the more likely clients are to book you on a recurring basis, which is where consistent income is built.

Extra pay opportunities: Oven cleaning, interior window cleaning, heavy cleanings (soap scum, mold, mildew), and deep cleanings. These are additional service add-ons that can increase your earnings per job.

Scheduling & Availability

Help us understand your availability and scheduling expectations.

7. The number of appointments may vary as you build your schedule and client profile. Which best describes your situation? *

8. Important: This is not a W-2 position where you will be assigned work every day. During your trial period, expect approximately 2-3 cleaning appointments per week, usually 2-3 service hours each. After the trial period, it may take another 1-2 months to build a steadier flow of appointments as clients request you again and recurring cleanings are added. Would this starting schedule work for you? *

1099 Role & Variable Income: This is not a W-2 position with daily assigned work or fixed weekly hours. During your trial period, expect approximately 2-3 cleaning appointments per week, usually 2-3 service hours each. A fuller schedule is built over time through customer demand, your genuine availability, client requests, satisfaction and retention, and your performance. The economy, marketing results, and seasonality also affect how much work is available. Some weeks may be lower or higher, and we do not promise a minimum number of appointments, service hours, or income.

Which statement best matches your needs? *

Customer-Driven Scheduling: Because we are a residential cleaning company, the customer ultimately decides when they want their home cleaned. This means:

  • At the start, it may take time before your first appointments are confirmed. Customers can schedule anywhere from a few days to 3-4 weeks out, and sometimes even a month.
  • You will not always have back-to-back appointments right away. Your schedule builds over time as customers choose you and book recurring services.
  • Because we service private homes, the client has the final say over who they allow into their property. Whether a client commits to a recurring schedule (weekly, bi-weekly, etc.) is entirely their decision, and your increased earning potential depends on building that trust and delivering consistent, quality work.
  • The more available and reliable you are, the faster your schedule will fill up.

Do you understand and accept that appointment timing is driven by customer availability? *

Schedule Management: As an independent contractor, you are solely responsible for keeping your schedule accurate and up to date at all times.

  • If a day becomes unavailable, you must update your schedule or notify the office at least 48 hours in advance so we can plan accordingly.
  • In the case of an emergency, contact the main office as soon as possible so we can adjust any scheduled appointments.
  • You can update your schedule through the app, or by texting the concierge or scheduling department.

Do you understand that you are responsible for managing and updating your schedule? *

Availability Reliability: When you mark yourself as available and an appointment is scheduled, both the customer and our team are counting on you to be there.

  • If you confirm availability but then are unable to make the appointment, it directly impacts the customer's experience and our ability to rely on your schedule.
  • Repeated instances of confirmed availability followed by cancellations will result in fewer job assignments and will negatively affect your standing with the company.
  • Only mark yourself as available when you are genuinely able to work that day and time.

Do you understand the importance of maintaining accurate availability? *

Job Commitment

We need to understand any potential scheduling conflicts.

*Earnings Disclaimer: This is a 1099 independent contractor opportunity, not an employee position. Projected earnings of $1,400-$5,000 per month are estimates based on what our current team members earn as of 2026, working at least 4 days a week including one weekend day (Saturday). We are closed on Sundays. There is no minimum number of appointments, service hours, or weekly or monthly income. Since we provide residential cleaning services, clients choose their preferred cleaning days and ultimately decide which cleaners return to their homes. Success depends on maintaining high availability, that means being available at least 4 out of 5 weekdays, and the days you mark as available must be genuinely open. If you are assigned an appointment on a day you indicated you were available, you must actually be available for that appointment. Additionally, success requires being well-equipped with proper cleaning supplies, excellent communication with cleaning staff, coordinating schedules effectively, and consistently delivering quality service that encourages client retention. Actual earnings may vary based on individual performance, customer demand, the number of cleanings accepted and completed, client satisfaction, client retention, economic conditions, marketing conditions, seasonality, true scheduling availability, equipment quality, and market conditions. These figures are not a promise of income.
