Our cleaning partners play a key role in helping us deliver five-star stays by preparing homes to a professional, guest-ready standard.

What to Expect:

  • Clean and reset vacation properties to a high standard between guest stays

  • Restock amenities, tidy outdoor spaces, and report any property issues or maintenance concerns

  • Occasional pickup of supplies for specific properties (reimbursed with receipt)

  • Flexible work hours, but Sunday availability is required due to check-in schedules

  • Assigned properties will be within a set region (details provided upon onboarding)

Who We’re Looking For:

  • At least 1 year of professional cleaning or housekeeping experience

  • Valid driver’s licence and reliable vehicle

  • Self-motivated with strong attention to detail

  • Comfortable working independently and communicating clearly with our team

  • Dependable and organized, with a focus on quality and consistency

  • Must consent to a criminal record check prior to starting work

If you’re a reliable cleaner who takes pride in your work and wants the flexibility of subcontracting, we’d love to hear from you.
