Isabelle was great! She was very clean and followed instruction well. She made sure to clean every surface and moved things around in order to clean thoroughly. She also took the initiative in order to clean places she thought needed cleaning.

Angela is an absolutely lovely person, we enjoyed having her around and the quality of the service is exceptional. We have recently moved so having her clean around the space helped us declutter at the same time and finally enjoy our new place. She was also lovely with our puppy who is stressed with new people, he absolutely loved her and he can sometimes be a bit too much to manage.
