I've only used a cleaning service twice in my life. Both times, I let the people in, explained my special requests, asked if they needed me for anything, thanked them, and took off.

Whenever any other service (cable, maintenance, etc.) comes in, I play hostess and asked if I can get them anything. If not, I kinda walk around and make myself available every so often in case they need me, which they always do.

Awkward...hmmm. I think the only thing that really makes me feel awkward is dealing with adults who have some sort of mental illness/disability that makes them act out. The worst for me is adults who shriek and yell in enclosed spaces. I end up getting startled, leaving me with a look of terror, and then I get self-conscious.
