Esmeralda had my floors sparkling like the New Year’s Eve ball in Times Square! She’s a breath of fresh air for sure and she is always prompt and punctual. It goes a long way!

Chris G.

Kelly gives great attention to all the surfaces in our home. She is mindful of the cats we have. She does small, extra things that we don’t even think to ask her to do.

Christopher T.

Debra did fantastically -- I had been away on business and forgotten to tidy apartment, but she cleaned it thoroughly nonetheless. Very, very impressed.

This was my first booking with Maria. We have 3 cats and Maria does a wonderful job of vacuuming all the pet hair off our living room couches and carpet.

Heather was so great as she called and let us know her timing and was able to get to the building in time before our security left. She was thorough and really gave us that extra love we needed. ❤️
