Cleaning up Poop, Pee, and other Lovely Messes
As housekeepers you may on occasion run into some "lovely messes". From a dead mouse in a trap under the kitchen sink, cat barf on a living room chair, to a doggy accident on the kitchen floor. These are not completely uncommon messes and even our cleanest of clients may not notice that their pet had an accident after they left the home.
In these situations, we ask for you to use your best judgment. If you would clean up these small messes for your own pets or in your own home then we ask you help your client out and clean up these minor inconveniences for them as well.
To clean any of these messes, we ask that you ALWAYS wear your gloves. Pick up the mess with paper towels so that the waste doesn't come in contact with your skin, then dispose of in a plastic bag and discard. Clean the area with all-purpose spray or Dawn dish soap to sanitize.
Where we draw the line....
If you walk into a job and are overwhelmed by the smell of urine or feces. If you find that there is a large amount of hazardous material throughout the home, such as a mouse infestation or hoarding situation. If you have a client that has had incontinence issues and requests you clean it... This is when you excuse yourself and contact the staff line followed by your manager.
We do visit most properties for a consultation prior to scheduling but occasionally we perform virtual consults or a job is "sight unseen".
We never want you to work in an environment that makes you feel uncomfortable or unsafe. Never hesitate to reach out to the staff line and management with questions regarding a questionable hazard. You may also leave a job at any time if you truly feel the environment is hazardous.
Clients are made aware that we will not clean these type of materials in any situation. Here is a screenshot of our Client Hazardous Material Policy that they acknowledge and sign.
