Professional House Cleaning Services

Your Free Time Is Yours. Keep It That Way.

Your home should be a place you enjoy, not another list of chores waiting for your attention.

Whether you love a spotless house but hate cleaning, have more important things demanding your time, or simply prefer leaving the scrubbing to someone else, we're happy to take it off your hands.

At D's Dust Bunnies, our professional cleaning teams help you enjoy a clean, comfortable home on your terms. Choose weekly, every-other-week, monthly, or one-time cleaning, and leave the dirty work to us.

A clean home feels great. Having someone else do the cleaning? Even better.

The Dust Bunnies Checklist

What's Included in Every House Cleaning

We Take Care of the Details, So You Can Enjoy the Results.

There's a difference between a house that looks tidy and one that's been professionally cleaned.

Our teams work through a detailed 46-point checklist that covers the rooms and surfaces you use every day. From kitchen counters and bathroom fixtures to bedrooms, floors, and living spaces, we follow an established cleaning process designed to deliver consistent results.

And we don't stop at the usual routine. With recurring cleaning services, we give one room additional deep-cleaning attention during each visit, rotating through your home over time.

You get the benefit of regular upkeep, plus attention to those little areas that are easy to overlook.

Deep Clean Rotation

On the next visit, we move to another room. Over time, the rotation works its way through your home, giving those often-overlooked spaces their turn.

Straight From Our Customers

House Cleaning Reviews

There's Nothing Quite Like Coming Home to Clean.

One of the nicest things about regular house cleaning is knowing that someone else has already taken care of the work.

But don't just take our word for it. Our customers have plenty to say about their experiences with the Dust Bunnies teams, from occasional deep cleanings to years of recurring service.

★★★★★

“Love the Dust Bunnies! Have been using them for years for one time cleanings when needed. Started up about 6 months ago every two weeks. They do an amazing job! So much less stress in my life!”

Lisa tippett, Google

“We have used Dust Bunnies Cleaning Service for over 10 years. We have never been happier. I love coming home to a clean home.

Questions

House Cleaning Questions

Everything You Want to Know Before We Get Started.

What's Included in a House Cleaning?

Our regular house cleaning follows a detailed 46-point checklist covering kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, living spaces, laundry rooms, and other areas throughout your home.

Recurring services also include our rotating deep-cleaning system, which gives an additional room extra attention during each visit.

You can explore the full checklist above to see exactly what's included.

How Often Can I Schedule House Cleaning?

We offer weekly, every-other-week, monthly, and one-time cleaning services.

Some customers prefer frequent visits to keep everything consistently clean, while others want occasional help. We'll discuss your preferences and help you choose a schedule that works for you.

What's the Difference Between Recurring and One-Time House Cleaning?

Recurring cleaning helps maintain your home on a regular schedule and includes our rotating deep-cleaning process.

One-time cleaning is an option when you want a more thorough refresh without scheduling ongoing visits. It can be especially useful before an event, after a busy period, or whenever your home could use some extra attention.

What Happens During My First Cleaning?

Your first visit helps establish a clean starting point for future service.

Our team follows the house cleaning checklist and addresses the deep-cleaning tasks included in your agreed service. For recurring customers, subsequent visits maintain the home while the deep-clean rotation moves from room to room.

Can I Hire a Cleaning Service for Someone Else?

Yes. You can contact our office about arranging house cleaning for a parent, family member, or someone else you'd like to help.

We'll discuss the home's cleaning needs, scheduling, and the details needed to arrange the service.

Do I Need to Be Home During My Cleaning?

Not at all! Many of our customers go about their day while our teams take care of the cleaning. Some leave us a key, while others provide an entry code. We'll work with you to arrange access to your home so you don't have to plan your day around cleaning day.

Do You Bring Your Own Cleaning Supplies?

Yes. Our cleaning teams arrive with their own supplies.

If you have a preferred product for a particular surface, or cleaning products you'd like us to use in your home, let our office know when scheduling.

Can You Clean Inside My Oven or Refrigerator?

Absolutely.

Interior oven cleaning is available for an additional charge.

Interior refrigerator cleaning is included with one-time house cleaning and available for an additional charge with recurring service.

Just mention either service when requesting your free estimate.

How Much Does House Cleaning Cost?

Every home is different. The cost depends on factors such as the size of your home, the type of cleaning requested, and how often you'd like service.

Contact us for a free estimate. Our office team will discuss your needs and provide an estimate over the phone.

What Forms of Payment Do You Accept?

We accept cash, checks, and Venmo. Our office team can go over payment details when you schedule your cleaning.

Do You Offer House Cleaning Gift Certificates?

Absolutely! A professionally cleaned home makes a wonderful gift for just about anyone. Whether it's for a birthday, housewarming, holiday, or simply to do something thoughtful for someone you care about, a D's Dust Bunnies gift certificate lets them enjoy a clean home without doing the work themselves.

Call 847-986-6072 to ask about purchasing a gift certificate.

Are Your Cleaning Teams Background-Checked and Insured?

Yes. D's Dust Bunnies is licensed, bonded, and insured, and our cleaning team members are trained and background-checked.

Our cleaners work in teams of two or more.

Do I Have to Sign a Long-Term Contract?

No long-term contracts are required. You can choose the cleaning frequency that works for you, including one-time service.

What If I'm Not Happy With My Cleaning?

We want you to be happy with the work our teams do.

If something was missed or wasn't cleaned properly, contact our office. We'll come back and make it right.

That's the Dust Bunnies Promise.
