I'm a very detail oriented person who loves to clean! The messier the better 😊 I do regular and deep cleans, move in/out, hoardings, commercial and one time cleans. I love cleaning/organizing. I also love making people happy! I've been a professional cleaner for a few years, but now I'm ready to do it on my own. Prices will reflect me being new to doing it on my own.
