   Rent-a-wife – a woman who cleans, cooks, does laundry, 
   picks up dry cleaning, mail, etc but without the emotional

There's an Australian business - http://www.hireahubby.com.au/ - where you can hire a "hubby" to do all the handyman jobs around the house...

I have seen those and I thought they were like "College Painters/Haulers" (i.e. hire a student who needs the money) meaning the "Hubbie" here implies a working family man, as opposed to a "lousy bachelor who might squander your money on booze".
