All working time is tracked for minimum-wage and overtime compliance.

Responsibilities

  • Perform standard residential cleaning in customers’ homes
  • Complete occasional deep cleans and move-in/move-out cleans
  • Clean kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, floors, and common areas
  • Dust, vacuum, mop, scrub, and wipe household surfaces
  • Follow Nova Maids cleaning checklists and quality standards
  • Take before-and-after or quality-control photos when required
  • Communicate promptly about delays, damages, access problems, or unusual conditions
  • Treat customers, homes, belongings, pets, and coworkers professionally

Professional residential cleaning experience is preferred. Experience in hotel, commercial, restaurant, or other detail-oriented cleaning environments may also be considered.
