The network has cited poor ratings for the demise of the crime drama - going from three million per episode during the first couple of seasons to just a million by the fourth.
It comes a year after the death of the show's beloved star Adan Canto, who died on January 8, 2024, at the age of 42 of appendiceal cancer.
The X-Men actor starred in 25 episodes of The Cleaning Lady before his death.
Adan made his final appearance on The Cleaning Lady on April 9 of last year, which showed his character, Arman Morales, being captured in a van after a botched drug deal.

Adan's family ended up finding him and the vehicle after a planned drop-off in the desert.
Thony was involved in a shootout with Arman's kidnappers, which ultimately led to the tragic end.
The car, which Arman was in, had flown over a cliff after he had moved the kidnapper's hand that was pointing a gun at Thony.
After seeing Thony's sad reaction, fans gathered that Arman and the others in the car had died in the crash.

The episode ended with a flashback to a scene between Arman and Thony kissing in Season 1.

Inside Malcolm In The Middle star's very un-Hollywood move as he's replaced in reboot after ditching fame
Malcolm in the Middle actor Erik Per Sullivan is headed to Harvard University, according to his TV dad Bryan Cranston. 'He's actually going to Harvard,' Cranston, 69, opened up to the Fly on the Wall podcast while speaking about the revival of the Fox series on Disney+ for four episodes. The actor, who played Hal Wilkerson on the series, told hosts Dana Carvey and David Spade that Erik, 33, was 'the only one who didn't come back to act in the show. 'I talked to Erik and I said, "Hey, we got the show! It's going to come back,'" said Cranston. 'He goes, "Oh, that's fantastic!" He added: 'And I go, "Yeah, so we're looking forward to having you back." He goes, "Oh, no, no, I don't want to do it. But it's fantastic."' Erik, a native of Worcester, Massachusetts, played the role of Dewey Wilkerson on Malcolm in the Middle over 151 episodes from 2000–2006. Cranston said of Erik: 'He's really, really smart, and he's getting his master's at Harvard right now. Cranston said Erik told him he'd been out of the Hollywood loop for decades. He said, 'Oh God, no, I haven't acted since I was 9 or something. So I'm not into it.' He previously attended the University of Southern California from 2009–2010. Cranston said he was astounded digesting the passage of time in reuniting on the set of the series. 'It's amazing how these boys who were my boys on that show are now around the same age I was when we first started, and they've got children of their own,' said Cranston. Other members of the cast of the series slated to return for the revival include Frankie Muniz, Justin Berfield, Christopher Masterson and Jane Kaczmarek. Cranston went onto play the iconic role of Walter White on Breaking Bad in the years following his time on the family comedy.
