Our clients include seniors wanting to age in place, new moms needing postpartum support, and busy professionals who just need a break. No matter your situation, our chore services are designed to make daily life easier, safer, and more balanced.

So what do families ask for the most? Let’s count down the top 10 most requested chore services across Iowa homes.

1. House Cleaning and General Tidying

This tops the list for a reason. From dusting and mopping to sanitizing kitchens and bathrooms, a clean home sets the tone for a calm mind.
Maxona Care’s team provides weekly, biweekly, or monthly home cleanings, tailored to your space size and needs.
We focus on consistency, safety, and detail — so you always walk into a refreshed, comfortable home.

🧽 Popular add-on: Deep cleaning for move-ins, move-outs, or spring refreshes.

2. Laundry and Linen Service

Laundry is one of those chores that never ends. We handle washing, drying, folding, and organizing so your home stays neat and your clothes fresh.

Our laundry assistance is especially helpful for:

  • Seniors or individuals with mobility challenges

  • Postpartum moms balancing new routines

  • Busy professionals or families with kids

We even help with bedding changes and linen management, ensuring a cozy, clean sleep space.

3. Kitchen Cleanup and Dishwashing

After a long day, the last thing most people want to face is a pile of dishes. That’s where we come in.
Our helpers handle dishwashing, counter sanitizing, trash removal, and kitchen re-organization — leaving your cooking space spotless and ready for your next meal.

🍽️ Fun fact: Many families pair this service with meal prep support for a seamless kitchen routine.

4. Bathroom Cleaning and Sanitizing

Clean bathrooms are essential for a healthy home. Our trained staff focuses on hygiene and detail — scrubbing tiles, disinfecting fixtures, and polishing mirrors until they sparkle.

This service is one of our most-booked by families with small children and seniors needing safe, slip-free spaces.

5. Grocery Shopping and Errand Running

Life doesn’t always leave time for grocery lines or post office runs.
Our errand service takes care of the essentials — picking up prescriptions, groceries, and supplies — so you can spend time on what matters most.

🛒 We’ll follow your exact list, handle the loading/unloading, and even organize groceries in your kitchen.

6. Light Yard Work and Outdoor Chores

A beautiful yard adds pride and peace to your home. Maxona Care helps with basic lawn upkeep, raking, patio sweeping, and light gardening.

Our outdoor chore services keep your property safe and tidy, especially for seniors or families who may not have time for yard maintenance.

🌿 Local tip: Regular yard checks also help prevent falls and outdoor hazards during Iowa’s icy months.

7. Organization and Decluttering Support

From closets to garages, clutter builds up fast. Our team helps families reclaim their space with light organization and sorting assistance.

We help categorize, label, and store items while keeping your privacy and comfort in mind.
This service is especially helpful for downsizing seniors or families adjusting to new spaces.

8. Pet Care Assistance

Our clients love their pets — and so do we!
We provide light pet care support, including feeding, walks, and clean-up. Perfect for seniors, recovering clients, or anyone who needs an extra hand with their furry friends.

🐾 Safety first: We ensure your pets are comfortable and routines stay consistent.

9. Trash and Recycling Management

It sounds small, but managing waste can be a big challenge for many households.
We assist with trash removal, recycling, and bulk item placement for pickup, keeping your home and surroundings clean.

This service is particularly popular among elderly clients and apartment residents in Black Hawk County.

10. Seasonal Cleaning and Home Prep

Iowa seasons bring their own to-do lists — from winter salt messes to fall leaf cleanups.
Our seasonal cleaning packages help your home stay ready year-round.
