Domestyca
Domestyca connects families directly with verified housekeepers and domestic staff in Portugal, Luxembourg and Switzerland — no agencies, no middlemen, no monthly subscription.
Domestyca is an online platform for families looking to hire domestic help — housekeepers, cleaners, live-in and live-out staff — without going through an agency.
Browse profiles for free by city, availability, languages spoken and type of work. Every profile can be identity-verified, and families leave real reviews after working with a candidate, so you know who you are inviting into your home. When you find someone who fits, you contact them directly and arrange terms between yourselves — Domestyca charges no commission on the hire and no ongoing subscription.
Especially useful for expats. The platform is fully available in English and French, and profiles show which languages each candidate speaks — so newcomers to Lisbon, Porto, the Algarve, Luxembourg or Switzerland can find help without needing the local language or a local network.
How it works

- Post a free job listing and let candidates apply to you, or search and reach out yourself.
- Buy a small credit pack to unlock contact details, then message candidates directly.
Also available: sponsored job listings for more visibility, and the option to fund a candidate's identity verification.
