Timekeeping Built for Cleaning Companies
Accurate hours, verified check-ins, and real-time visibility—whether you manage 5 cleaners or 150.
CleanGuru Timekeeping was built to solve the real problems cleaning companies face: unreliable check-ins, late arrivals, wrong-site punches, payroll disputes, and zero visibility into who’s actually working. With GPS geofencing, late alerts, and a live operational dashboard, you finally get time data you can trust—without chasing cleaners or stitching together multiple apps.
And because not every cleaner has a smartphone or reliable signal, CleanGuru gives you alternative check-in options, role-based supervisor controls, built-in messaging, and seamless QuickBooks Online syncing. You get accurate payroll, clean permissions, and total accountability across every building, every shift, every night.
The 7 Timekeeping Features
1. GPS Geofence Verifies Cleaners Are On-Site & On Time
CleanGuru’s GPS geofencing shows whether a cleaner checked in from the scheduled building’s geofence or from off-site. Cleaners can always check in—even when signal is weak—but off-site check-ins are clearly flagged and supervisors are alerted so they can follow up.
This gives owners accurate, transparent time records without blocking legitimate check-ins caused by GPS limitations
2. Late Alerts Notify Supervisors Instantly
If a cleaner hasn’t checked in by the scheduled start time, CleanGuru instantly notifies supervisors. They can call the cleaner, reassign the job, or take action before service is affected.
These alerts help companies operate from a position of control, not reaction. Instead of discovering issues after the fact, supervisors stay ahead of problems and protect service quality across every building.
3. Real-Time View Shows Who’s Checked In & Working
CleanGuru gives you a live dashboard showing exactly who is clocked in, where they’re working, and when jobs start or finish. No more guessing, texting, or calling to find out which buildings are active—you see your entire operation unfolding in real time.
This visibility lets owners and supervisors manage with confidence. Whether overseeing five sites or fifty, you always know which locations are covered, which shifts are in progress, and whether any buildings need attention.
4. Alternative Check-In for Cleaners Without Phones or Signal
For job sites with poor cellular service—or for cleaners without smartphones—CleanGuru provides alternative check-in options to ensure time is still captured accurately. Cleaners can simply use a designated building phone with a secure PIN-based check-in, ensuring no one is locked out of payroll because of signal gaps or device limitations.
This keeps operations running smoothly across manufacturing plants, hospitals, basements, and remote locations. You maintain accurate payroll tracking without forcing unrealistic tech requirements on your workforce.
5. Cleaners Can Message Supervisors Directly
Cleaners can instantly ask questions, send updates, and report issues using CleanGuru’s convenient ‘Contact Supervisor’ feature on the mobile app.
This improves clarity, resolves problems faster, and gives supervisors a cleaner, more accountable communication trail for every building.
6. Supervisor-Assigned Buildings Control Alerts & Timesheets
Each supervisor in CleanGuru only sees the buildings, alerts, and timesheets assigned to them. This prevents confusion, reduces noise, and ensures managers stay focused on their territory—not the entire company’s workload.
Role-based controls scale cleanly as you grow. Supervisors stay accountable for the buildings they oversee, and owners maintain visibility across everything.
7. Approved Timesheets Sync Seamlessly to QuickBooks Online
Once timesheets are reviewed and approved, CleanGuru syncs them directly to QuickBooks Online—eliminating manual data entry and dramatically reducing payroll mistakes. Hours flow cleanly from your field team to accounting in just a few clicks.
This shortens payroll processing time, improves financial accuracy, and keeps your books organized—even during your busiest weeks.
See how CleanGuru’s Timekeeping can protect payroll, improve accountability, and give you real-time visibility across every building.
