Why she does it:
It makes me so happy when the Client is proud of how clean their home is. When a customer goes out of their way to call me, just to say how nice their house looks, that they would recommend MyPartners In Living to anybody they know, its the bomb! I can't tell how proud that makes me feel.
The funny thing is, I just LOVE to CLEAN! I enjoy cleaning my own home so I extended my skills to other peoples houses.

Our Stories
“ I was only 72 when I realized I needed help. I was a widower and had just been released from the hospital. The recovery process was difficult for my body and I knew that no matter how much I wanted to, I couldn't do it by myself. Now I have Michael, my Certified Caregiver. He is there to help me with my medical needs, but mostly he is someone who I enjoy beating in chess every day. ”
