Even the idea of telling someone what to clean or where to put something makes my skin crawl.

That last bit is a decade long push/pull for me. I've learned to pre-clean / pre-store certain parts of the house before the cleaner gets here.

One way to lesser the "what" part of it is to maintain the same person(s) for a prolonged period. Some can be taught what specifics "clean this room" entails and eventually you don't have to micromanage that segment.
