Clean Is My Thing

I’m Karen Presley, owner of Karen’s Cleaning Service. When I was 11 or 12 years old, I never sat in front of the TV because I loved working and earning my own money from ironing, raking leaves and mowing lawns for neighbors. Before long, I found myself cleaning houses, too. I did such a good job that word spread, and soon my cleaning business was launched!

That was 30 years ago, and cleaning has been my livelihood ever since. Today, I have several good helpers and a growing list of satisfied clients throughout the region. I’ve been based in Cookeville, Tennessee, since 2005, but I travel all over, cleaning homes and businesses as far away as Nashville and Atlanta.

I love meeting and helping people and having a variety of work to do, because no two jobs are the same. Why not give us a try and see the difference a good, deep cleaning can make in your life?

Testimonials

Clients Delighted

Charming personality, very thoughtful, thorough and dependable. Excellent cleaning of all surfaces, woodworking, windows, floors — hands and knees if necessary — bathtub, takes curtains down and washes them. Does not waste any of her time. Cleans inside refrigerators, stoves, cupboards if you want, offers to do laundry, run dishwasher. She doesn’t take breaks, works till the job is complete. Highly recommend her.

— Cathy W. and Craig L. –

Karen is conscientious, extremely thorough, loyal and dependable. In addition to her superior cleaning services (which has included oven cleaning, wiping out the refrigerator and laundry if needed), Karen has also provided us pet sitting, ironing and garage and attic organizing.

She is also great to have on hand for dinner parties, as she won’t leave your home until the last glass is dried and put away AND the dishwasher has been emptied.

Karen aptly anticipates your needs; if she can’t do it, she’ll find someone who can. Karen is rock solid, her staff is well trained, and I am so lucky to have met her over four years ago.

— Sandy M. –

Karen has been working for us for over a year. She does anything above and beyond what you ask of her. The house has never been cleaned like she cleans it. It’s incredible. She sees to details that you wouldn’t ordinarily see or that someone who does that type of work wouldn’t normally see. I’ve had people clean my house for years, but nobody cleaned it like that. She’s really, really good.

I guess what I love about her so much is, we’ve owned our business for years, and I’ve had other people work with me, but Karen is always willing and happy to help you. She is always in a good mood, which means a lot today.

She brought me food during the pandemic. She went and did my grocery shopping. She has helped my mom who is 93 and has taken things to her. My sister now has COVID, and Karen has taken her food and medicine and put it at her front door.

She takes her work very seriously, and she does and impeccable job because she does take it so seriously. I would trust her with anything. I trust her to be at my home when I’m not there. I give her the highest rating.

— Donna E. –

Karen is good as gold. She’s super dependable. She works all the time. She’s highly energetic, and she scrubs everything. It’s not just passed over or hit and miss. It is scrubbed. She’s more meticulous than other cleaning people I’ve had experience with. She finds stuff that we hadn’t even thought about cleaning. She sweeps patios, anything. If she sees dirt, she gets it. I’d recommend her to anyone. She’s really trustworthy. She’s the best I’ve ever had.

— Karen N. –

I hired Karen’s Cleaning Service twice in Monroe, Michigan, to clean apartments that we were leaving, and I just can’t tell you how clean these places were when she got done. It really made me mad, because then I realized how dirty it had been when I moved in. I don’t think they were that clean when they were built brand new.

She just did an amazing job. That’s why I used her a second time when I moved out of an apartment. I had no reason to call anyone else. Even the dirt was clean. I would highly recommend her.

— Randy H. –

I worked with Karen for approximately seven years. Without a doubt, Karen is the best housekeeper/ cleaner I have ever met. She is meticulous with her work, going above and beyond everyone’s expectations! Your home will never be cleaner than when Karen finishes the job. I have never known anyone Karen has worked for that wasn’t more than satisfied with her work. She is honest and trustworthy in everything she does. I highly recommend Karen. You won’t be disappointed!

— Margo P. –

I know Karen of Karen’s Cleaning Service through a close friend of mine who lives in Knoxville, and he has used that service for years. I have visited him many times when she has been there cleaning his house. Every time I have observed her in his house, I’ve observed her work to be very thorough. That’s the first thing you notice. She doesn’t miss anything. And she takes all the time that is required to do a thorough job.

I’m told by my friend that she has always been very dependable and has always done a good job for him every time she’s been there, and he’s used her for quite some time. I’ve also noticed that she has a wide variety of cleaning agents that she brings into the house. She’s got brushes and powders and solutions and all kinds of instruments, so she can handle any situation that there is. I’ve seen the work of other cleaning people, including my own, and it does not compare with hers. If I lived within the area she serves, I would definitely have her cleaning my home.

— William F. –

They did an absolutely fabulous job. The first cleaning was more like a big, giant deep cleaning, which I wasn’t really expecting or anticipating, and it was fabulous. I could not be happier. We would totally recommend her to others.
