House Cleaning, NYC
House cleaning in New York City.
Vetted cleaners, their price, plus Bobby’s flat $1 fee (never a percentage).
You are letting someone into your home. You should know exactly who they are, and exactly what it costs. Bobby is being built to connect New Yorkers with cleaners who are identity-verified and background-checked, booked by the hour, with the full price on screen before you commit. The cleaner sets their own rate and keeps all of it. Bobby adds a flat $1 on top, never a commission.
A flat $1 fee, whichever side you are on.
Here is how a two-bedroom deep clean works on Bobby, for the customer and for the cleaner. Drag the price to see it at any job size. Same flat fee, no percentage cut, ever.
If you book it (customer)
The cleaner keeps 100% of their price. Bobby's fee is a flat $1, never a percentage. Standard card processing is billed at cost, and your full total is shown before you confirm.
If you provide it (cleaner)
A typical 25% app would take $30 of this job. On Bobby, all $120 stays yours.
What you keep as a cleaner, side by side
You keep all $120. No percentage, ever. The flat $1 fee is the customer's, added on top.
They take $30 out of this one job. You keep just three quarters of your own work.
Example only, not a quote. Cleaners set their own price; the flat $1 fee is what stays fixed.
Everything, one flat fee.

Why New Yorkers are choosing Bobby.
Most cleaning apps quietly take 15 to 30 percent off the top. The better your cleaner, the more the platform pockets. Bobby's model is one flat dollar per booking instead. The cleaner keeps their full rate. You see the real total before you book. Nobody gets squeezed in the middle. That is the whole thing, and it is the whole pitch.

Built for New York. Launching by the book.
Bobby is preparing for launch and is finalizing all required business registrations, insurance, and provider vetting. Every provider will be identity-verified and background-checked before their first job.
Our platform is being built with compliance at its core. Services requiring regulatory authorization will not be offered or made available until all applicable licenses, permits, and registrations have been issued.
In the meantime, we invite you to join our waitlist to be among the first to experience Bobby when we officially launch.
