You'd just let a random person who signed up with an app into your house to clean?

Through an established maid service? Yes. Though, like the sibling post, they did an awful job and I eventually found a private person to do the housekeeping. I have no idea how those housekeeping services stay in business - I tried several and they were all terrible. Nothing illegal or sketchy, just not good at cleaning.

Ah. I read that as dry cleaning. You're right. At worst, I'm going to use a franchised service--and the period I did that I never had a real problem but I wasn't very happy with it either. Now I use someone I hired privately.
