Where are you located? In many areas you must be licensed as a real estate agent/property manager to be compensated for managing properties other than those you own.
@Michel6104 as @Brenda328 says check local laws. In my locality you cannot call yourself a "property manager" or advertise properties if you don't have a real estate license-- but you can be an Airbnb "co-host" as long as you don't do either of those things. How much to charge depends on local market and your specific duties. This generally includes 100% of cleaning fees and anywhere from 10% to 40% of rent. (My local co-host gets 30%.) IMO it's important to have a written contract with the owner that specifies exactly who is responsible for what.
