Poof was created because managing apartment cleaning should not eat up your free time - or your peace of mind. The spark for Poof happened one busy day in founder Julian David's own kitchen. Balancing Airbnb hosting with a hectic schedule, Julian realized just how tough it was to find a trustworthy cleaner at the last minute, and even harder to book someone professional who actually showed up, on your schedule. Every attempt felt like a gamble and added stress to already packed days. That led to a simple question: why can't there be a way to pull out your phone, book a reliable cleaner, and get confirmation in minutes? Why not reclaim your time, skip the waiting game, and feel confident about who's coming into your home? That's how Poof was born - designed for busy residents in Raleigh who want more flexibility, more control, and a seamless booking experience. Our mission? Make cleaning fast, simple, and actually enjoyable - without sacrificing quality or care. Residents pick what they need cleaned, choose their time, and receive prompt updates every step of the way. Every part of our process is built to be calm, professional, and friendly - for our customers and our cleaners - so you get back to living, while we handle the mess.
