"We are a handyman and household service, and we rent out husbands and wives," said the owner.

You can now rent a husband or wife to get jobs around the house done. The company dispatches husbands to do yard work and rent-a-wives to handle maid services and pet-sitting.

"It's a very unique business model, I love that it's the handy work and cleaning together," said one customer.

The company now boasts 40 franchises in Texas alone.
