Maid service recommendation for Canton?

Single male plus cat looking for someone to do fortnightly cleaning (floors and bathroom) in a 1 BR/1 bath Canton rowhouse. Anyone have a recommendation for a maid service in the area? I have tried one that offered a Groupon but was less than impressed. I am not picky about letting people into ly house, so bonus points if they can come by while I am at work.

how long have you been waiting to use the word fortnightly?

'Biweekly' is ambiguous - does it mean once every other week or twice a week? 'Fortnightly' unambiguously means the former.

But to answer your question - a really long time.

Depends on how well you clean.

It'll be so clean that you forgot you ever lived there. In fact, it'll be so clean it'll be 100% vacant by the time you get home!

I've done this with a pet sitter and it worked out well. A referral from someone would be a great benefit, though.

So...why can't you clean your own house?

Because my time is worth more to me than the cost of paying someone to clean my house for me.

How much is your time worth?

Enough that paying someone to clean my tiny house better and more regularly than I can is worth it.

I find it interesting that you make enough to pay someone else to do your housework, but not enough to boast about it. Or is posting a request for a maid your form of boasting?

I'm not shitting on you for working hard, obviously you do, as you now feel it's your right to continue the long human tradition of debasing someone else to do work you are more than capable of doing yourself.

Congrats.
