Don't know why you're being downvoted, it's a good question. The answers don't mean they're good services.

My mom does laundry for something, I don't remember the name, but if you want someone to do your laundry there's an uber for laundry where they'll come pick it up and drop it off folded. Skeevs me out but apparently it's worth it to some

Shittr - For when you find yourself in a public bathroom stall with no toilet paper.

So you browse crap on the internet instead of dealing with your own crap?

(Shittr is an app)

Turo for sharing cars. It's car rentals but weird since you're borrowing other people's cars.

Kyte is in a similar vein for on demand cars via app, but it functions similar to a traditional car rental in every other way. Though they're a baby company so they might not be a good Uber comparison yet.
My personal experience has been pretty good and the prices are very competitive, but we'll see how they survive when the VC money runs out.
