What it's like taking jobs through TaskHer

You run your own business. We find the customers, handle the booking and take payment. Most jobs are small to medium domestic work in London homes, flats and rental properties, booked by customers who specifically want a woman in their home. Every booking comes with a full description, photos and preferred dates. Take the ones that suit you.

Your rate: £71.25 per hour

Free to join, with no sign-up or monthly fees. Each booking comes with an estimate based on how long the job usually takes. If it's bigger, agree the extra time with the customer and add it in your dashboard.
