We are looking for someone to do a deep cleaning before Thanksgiving and, if it goes well, hire a regular housecleaner to come to our house approximately once every two weeks going forward. The house is about 2600 sq ft. We have one small dog but she does not shed or have any accidents in the house. We have two toddlers and we regularly pick up after them but it is becoming difficult to do detailed cleaning on a regular basis.

I put in 8 hours because we would like the first cleaning to be very thorough and I'm not sure how many people would be working on this at once. I'm also not sure what the going hourly rate is so I've put a range.
