Hi, I'm Melissa
The Woman-Owned Cleaning Company Gresham Calls First
The Tidy Sister started in February 2015 with one woman helping neighbors. Eleven years later, we're a licensed and insured team, and the neighbors still come first.
Built on a simple belief
When your home feels lighter, your whole life does too.
That belief started this company, and it still runs it. What began as one woman helping neighbors has grown into a trusted, licensed and insured team serving Gresham, the Portland Eastside, and the communities around them. We didn't grow through ads; we grew because clients told their friends, and their friends stayed.
Around here, clients don't feel like accounts. They feel like family. Some of the homes we clean have been on our schedule for the better part of a decade, through new babies, retirements, remodels, and more than a few very good dogs.
"Take back your day, The Tidy Sister way!" isn't just the tagline. It's the whole offer: your time, your energy, and your peace of mind, returned to you.
Who we are
We're a licensed and insured local team covering house cleaning, apartment turnovers, commercial cleaning, and home concierge services: light caregiving support (always non-medical), light handyman help, errands, and the rest of the list a home quietly generates.
Reliable. Honest. Detail-oriented. And people you can trust in your home. Those aren't slogans; they're hiring criteria. The team carries professional supplies, never bleach, and treats your space and your schedule with the respect we'd want in our own homes.
Quotes are free and built around your home: its condition, its quirks, and the services you actually want. No formulas, no scripts, no pressure.
The Tidy Sister Way
Five expectations we publish on purpose, so you can hold us to them.
Licensed & insured professionals
An Oregon LLC with real coverage on every single visit, since February 2015.
Clear, dependable communication
We confirm, we arrive on time, and if anything changes you hear it from us first.
Health-conscious practices
No bleach, ever. Your vacuum and brushes stay in your home so germs don't commute.
Respect for your space & schedule
Your home is your haven. We work like invited guests, because we are.
A team that genuinely cares
The same regular cleaner whenever possible, and relationships measured in years.
This isn't just a business to us. It's a responsibility.
Rooted in Gresham
We're woman-owned and locally operated, a member of the Gresham Area Chamber of Commerce with a BBB business profile, and referrals have been the foundation of our growth from day one. Busy families, seniors and their adult children, property managers, and local businesses make up most of our week, and most of them found us the same way: somebody they trust said our name.
Take back your day, The Tidy Sister way!
