Sharla is the best ever…she is very detailed and thorough with everything. She always ask if everything is ok and is very accommodating! Manager Shanna rocks, also! I am a very detail picky client. I could write a book about how wonderful Cottage Care is. Their charge is not the cheapest BUT I feel you get what you pay for.

We’ve been using Cottage Care for several months since moving to the area. Hannah is professional and has great attention to detail. It is such a great feeling to come home to a clean house with little touches that show she cares about her work. We highly recommend Hannah and are grateful for the company’s communication.
