The service was okay. They sent out one cleaner, but she was not able to get everything completed in 4 hours. It would have nice if they would have sent out 2 cleaners, because the cleaner who came out was not as through as I would have liked her to be.

I was going out of town for a week on business and my cat had become ill, requiring twice daily medications. I contacted Fairydust Services about tending to her for the week. My email query was promptly replied to and the owner, Donna, made an appointment to come to my home, meet Phoebe and discover my (and her) needs. Donna was extremely thorough and took extensive notes on the location of things as well as Phoebe's habits and preferences. She explained everything the pet sitter could do for Phoebe, as well as working out with me how they would proceed if I was delayed, should there be a natural disaster, etc. It was extremely comforting to work with an organization with such a thoughtful and comprehensive approach. Donna assured me that the sitter who visited twice a day would not only tend to Phoebe's food, medicine, water and litterbox needs, but would also spend at least an hour at each visit and spend the balance of the time interacting with Phoebe. The first day, I emailed from out of town just to make sure that there had been no unexpected hitches and Donna responded promptly to reassure me. Jan visited Phoebe twice a day and took care of everything, even bringing in the mail for me. She left a lovely note to let me know how Phoebe had been and I could see for myself that Phoebe had been well cared for. This was an extraordinarily positive experience. At each step I was impressed with Fairydust Service's concern, thoughtfulness and attention to detail. I would not hesitate to use them again to take care of Phoebe and can't imagine using any other service. I was able to take care of my professional obligations because Fairydust took care of my friend.
Description of Work: Fairydust Services took care of my sick cat from 5/5/14 to 5/9/14 while I was out of town on business.

I needed to hire a cleaning company that could work with my dogs, and Fairy Dust is just perfect, because they love pets and have a pet sitting business also. So, I was hoping for a match made in heaven, which is what I found. Donna scheduled me promptly after I bought the deal, and we settled on a date that worked well. She told me what they concentrated on and what areas I wanted to have special attention. Anna showed up promptly at 9:00, with a van full of cleaning supplies and equipment. The doggies greeted her with suspicion, but after a few sniffs they were best buds. I showed Anna around and added on a few things, which she said no problem, and then I was off to work. I came home to a clean house that smelled great, and a note from Anna, on what she was able to accomplish, and what needed to be a work in progress. I plan on hiring them for routine cleaning. I was very pleased with their service, and their ability to work around the doggies, and know the areas to concentrate on because of our pets.

Response from FairyDust Services Inc
A response to this comment is very difficult because it was a very negative encounter. Ms. [member name removed] began the conversation stating she found us through Angie's List who she does not like at all and would that be a problem for us if she didn't like them. So the conversation started out oddly and eroded from there. She was the one irate that Angie's didn't do all the leg work for her and she is the one who has to check if companies are bonded and insured. I tried to explain to her that those facts are listed on the information about the company on our page, but she would have none of that. I did tell her we were licensed, bonded and insured, but then she proceeded to explain other situations she has had with cleaning services and how you can't trust anyone no matter what they say. I very nicely said I didn't believe she was the right fit for us and disconnected. The funny part is that she called again the next day and I don't know if she knew she was calling the same company and we had a nice conversation and I scheduled a consult after all. She called again on the weekend when our Big Deal came out wanting to know about that and I called her on Monday and left a message answering her question; she was never clear about what she wanted and I tried to help her in that regard. Her next message back was to cancel the appointment we had as something had come up. I have not heard from her since then. At this point, I will not being scheduling any further appointments with her.

Donna called and scheduled immediately. Was very prompt and easy to schedule with. Anna came and did cleaning and was very kind and extremely hard working. Did a great job and didn't stop at all. Donna then immediately followed up to make sure I was satisfied. Very nice work and experience.

How many people want a new person coming to clean every time. For this amount of money, some continuity in the cleaner is necessary. Since then, I have found a service for less money, who is willing to have the same person always come to my house, and who does a better, more efficient job because she KNOWS the house and my wants. Very disappointed in Fairy Dust's lack of interest in continuity.
Description of Work: They came and cleaned but when I asked to have the same person do my house regularly, they refused.

Response from FairyDust Services Inc
I am so sorry that we cannot please everyone and we do explain the reasons why something can or can not be done when asked a question, but sometimes that isn't enough it appears. Just for the record our ongoing clients DO have the same staff person clean their home on each visit; that is part of what is important to us, continuity of care. In this particular situation, which was a Storefront purchase of a one-time cleaning, the staff cleaner who performed the one-time cleaning only was able to do so because her client for that day was ill and she was unable to clean at that home. was very pleased with the work that was done and did contact me to indicate if she wanted ongoing service she would want that person. I explained to her what I said above and that her schedule was not open to add any new clients at this time. I also explained that all of our staff are trained and anyone of them would do the same very good job and become familiar with her home. I went over it with her many times, but she seemed to only want things her way and I told her I was very sorry that I couldn't accommodate her request; but would schedule a consult if she wished to pursue ongoing service. So we didn't ever REFUSE to send the same person; and she didn't actually every become an ongoing client since she didn't schedule a consult. I'm not sure if she thought she could just continue the service at the Storefront pricing without us giving her a price for ongoing service. She therefore has no idea how much our cost would be for cleaning her home because we didn't do the proposal. All in all, we were totally on different pages and we certainly hope she is happy with the service she did find and that met her needs.

I purchased a coupon for four cleanings: An initial deep cleaning, and three follow up cleanings. When I called to schedule the first cleaning in November, Donna explained that they would not be able to get me on their schedule until January, because of the holidays. While I was disappointed, I understood that housecleaning is very labor intensive, and there are only so many hours in the day, etc. I mentioned to Donna that I had just had knee surgery and had been hoping for some help to keep the dog hair in our house somewhat under control, but that I also understood their limits. I asked that she contact me should they have a cancellation and be able to work me in. A few days later, Donna called to schedule all four visits! Hannah did a wonderful job with the first two cleanings, and the house really sparkled. Fairydust uses green products and they smell great, too. On both days, I felt comfortable enough to run some errands during the cleanings, and found Hannah still hard at work when I returned. It was great to come back to a really clean home. The final two cleanings were equally great (and I'm pretty picky) - my thanks to Alicia (sp?) and Judy. Each time, I was asked if there was a particular area I felt needed special attention, and they took extra care with those. I was so pleased with the quaIity of the work that I am hoping to hire Fairydust for regular twice monthly cleanings in the near future.

The cleaning was excellent, particularly the two latter cleans. They were professional, thorough, pleasant, and did not express upset over the holiday clutter and pets! The two three hour cleans were excellent, and each time the cleaner (different at each clean) did an immaculate job on the tasks we identified at the initial start of the clean. They were very pleasant, I felt completely trusting, and I would definitely (and hope to) engage the services of FairyDust in the future. This was an Angie's Deal and the price was very good.

I called to set up an appointment when I had not heard from them for over a week after I purchased my big deal. I gave them my dates and information to contact me and heard from no one. When I called they could not get us in until Jan. and said with the $150 purchase they would not be able to work me in until next year as we were not priority clients. They had lots of large clients they have to take care of first.

Response from FairyDust Services Inc
We are so sorry this member was not happy. However, some of the statements that were made are not the full picture. We received the message in our message center on December 12th stating that she had purchased a 4 hour cleaning and gave the dates she preferred, which were 12/19; 12/20 and 12/23. As we always do, we responded through the message center and that response was on December 13th. That message explained that we did not have any openings on our schedule for December and we were sorry if December was the only time she wanted the cleaning; but for her to get back to us, if we could schedule something in January for her. We did not hear back from her so took that to mean she really wanted December. She called the following week saying we hadn't responded and we contacted her immediately to explain we had contacted her through the message center. She indicated that she never looks at that so didn't know we responded. As I did in my previous message on the message center, I explained to her that we had no openings in December at this point, that we are closed obviously over the holiday and our ongoing clients that falls on those days have to be shifted to other days; and that members that had purchased deals in November for December were already on the schedule, which left us with no openings. She kept asking me questions of why I couldn't clean her home after my explanation and I did say that our on-going clientele are a priority to have their homes cleaned prior to the holiday and those members that had already been scheduled; and that there were only so many days each week and we only have so many staff; and we don't just keep adding to our schedule and do shoddy work; as that is not how our company is run. We are detailed and spend time at each person's home so that we maintain the high level of performance that we are known for; which then limits how many clients we see in a day. I'm not sure how else I could have explained the fact that we did not have room on our schedule prior to the holiday. We do not wish to turn people away, but sometimes we have to and we are very sorry that she was upset by our response. We unfortunately can't make everyone happy; even though we'd love to.

I would highly recommend FairyDust housecleaning services. Their customer service is outstanding. The owner contacted me very soon after I purchased the Service. She walked me through everything that I could expect. And even though I scheduled this service right before the holidays she worked me into her busy schedule. She returned all calls promptly. The housecleaner arrived right on time. Her first visit was a 6 hour deep clean. She worked the entire 6 hours and really scrubbed down the bathrooms and kitchen and a giant sliding glass patio door. Everything looked great and smelled clean. Before she left she asked if there was anything else she could do, and after an inspection, I asked her to scrub one of the toilets again (we have hard water). She happily went right back to the bathroom and scrubbed that toilet again. Just outstanding attitude, polite, professional, courteous. I will be using them in the future... I cannot recommend them strongly enough.
Description of Work: Provider provided housecleaning services which includes one deep clean and two additional visits. Deep cleaning service was 6 hours and follow on cleaning was for 3 hours each.

We've only recently begun working with Fairy Dust but I am extremely impressed so far. Donna is the consummate professional and an excellent communicator. We spent almost two hours in the initial consultation. She provided a comprehensive overview of her company history, staff (including pictures of each) and services including products she uses which are plant-based and safe for my pets. MOST IMPORTANT for us is that FairyDust is not just a dog-friendly but DOG-LOVING organization. Each of the staff members must be a pet lover and it's a great relief to know if I'm not home there will be no concerns. The initial house cleaning was incredibly detailed - almost a full day of getting in the nooks and crannies. We've not yet taken advantage of the doggy house sitting but based on initial impressions will very likely do so!

Another fantastic job done by the FairyDust team. Generally I am a pretty decent housekeeper, but every once in a while I want a top to bottom job done by professionals and that is when I contact FairyDust Services, Inc. I found Donna Brown and her team last year through Angie?s List (see my review July, 2012). A year had passed since their last cleaning and a contact was made via Angie?s List. As before, I received a quick response from Donna and we agreed upon a date and time. Bianca arrived on schedule and proceeded to clean. She was polite, professional, and thorough. She shared that she loved to clean and thought she knew all the best methods but admitted she had learned a lot from Donna. It appears Donna assures that all her staff clean the FairyDust way,which is fine by me! I will always use FairyDust Services for my cleaning..

FairyDust did a wonderful job of cleaning our home. We had tried another service provide previously and were not happy with the results. We switched to FairyDust and came home to a spotless house. My husband and I were very impressed with their thorough cleaning and attention to detail. We will continue using them for house cleaning and pet sitting. The owner Donna was very thorough and attentive before, during, and after both our house cleaning and pet sitting visit. She lets you know who will be coming in to your home to care for your house and animals which put us at ease.

Anna from Fairy Dust did a first-rate job of cleaning my c.1925 bungalow. I collect antiques and the place was full of bric-a-brac, so it was no easy job to work around all that. I have allergies and every time I had tried to clean, the dust triggered reactions that lasted for days, so I needed a specialist to help me out. The place smelled and looked wonderful - the best it's looked in ages - when Anna left. From now on, Fairy Dust will be my own "house fairy"!

FairyDust has been fabulous. The initial cleaning had our house sparkling. They come every two weeks after that first deep clean and my home is now always company ready. The person who cleans our home is a joy. She is amazing with our children and always does a thorough job. We are always 100% satisfied after she leaves. The owner has extremely high standards for cleaning and the entire company adheres to them. I now do no cleaning at all unless we spill something!! The pet sitting is another amazing feature. They watch our cats every time we go out of town. Frequently we have given little to no notice and they still came through. FairyDust also brings in your mail and makes your home appear lived in while you are away to prevent burglaries. We had a storm once and a door blew open. Luckily, FairyDust was there to shut it so our home wasn't open for days. The fee is much more reasonable than our vet, plus we have the convenience of not having to haul off to the vet right before and after a vacation. The cats are a lot happier in their own environment. I highly recommend FairyDust Services. They are trustworthy, responsible and always deliver what they promise.
Description of Work: FairyDust thoroughly cleans my home every two weeks. They also provide excellent pet care while we are out of town.
