She now pockets up to £2,600 each week doing what she loves best - even if some homes have rubbish piled so high it reaches the ceiling.
Charlotte, from Sydney in Australia, says she tries to clean the worst of these for free or at low prices - despite cashing in elsewhere.

"I make a big difference in people's lives.
"There is a big misunderstanding with why homes get the way they do.
"I'm not going to judge them - hoarding isn't laziness."
Charlotte had been working for a cleaning company alongside her studies before losing her job when getting stuck in Fiji for a month in January 2022.
She decided to go it alone the following month and, after attracting a healthy client base, decided to take a gap year and launch her own business.
Some hoarders' properties can take not just days but months to clear, she revealed.
Charlotte said: "There are three stages - take the obvious rubbish, make a 'keep pile' and a 'donate' pile.
"We go section by section.
"I find it very therapeutic - it's rewarding.

"I try to help as much as possible."
Her latest task is cleaning a house with 17 years' worth of junk, piled to the ceiling.
She added: "This one is huge.
"We've just got started - it's going to be a good one."
Among her neglected finds in hoarder homes are unused, still-boxed appliances such as new microwaves and dishwashers.
And while dead rats are also discovered, she insisted: "People don't realise how many valuables are in the piles.
"Once we found a coin that turned out to be worth £21,000 under the carpet - it was very exciting."
