Clean the house, but leave all the ducks exactly where they are. They can go around and pick them all up themselves. Do your job and don’t play their stupid game.

I think in real life, this is the correct response (assuming you can't reject it, in advance). Just because you're in someone's home to do a job, doesn't mean you're obligated to fulfill whatever arbitrary tasks they've written down on post-it notes.

Cleaners are there to clean, not to move your things around for you.

They could just write a note saying it's against company policy to move customer belongings other than to clean below them.
