My older sister, in her infinite wisdom, warned me: “The better you do, the more chores you’ll get!” She even suggested doing a bad job might spare me a task or two. But I couldn’t help myself—I took pride in my work, which meant I ended up with a never-ending to-do list. (Ironically, that same sister went on to become a master-level chore lover herself—from gardening to organizing pantries and cooking, she’s the best at it all!)

I made a promise to myself, though, that when I grew up, I wouldn’t sacrifice fun just to stay home scrubbing floors. While I have plenty of strengths, keeping closets organized isn’t one of them. Every time I opened an overstuffed one, I couldn’t help but think how lucky the Brady family was. For years, I would mutter to myself, “Save me, Alice!”

That’s when it hit me—not everyone loves doing chores or housekeeping as much as my family did. Maybe it’s that one household task you dread, or an endless to-do list you’d rather avoid. That’s why Save Me Alice of Ponte Vedra was born—because life’s too short for laundry or being stuck inside when you could be out doing something you love.

But I didn’t want this to be just another boring old cleaning service. It had to be special, the kind of professional home cleaning my mom would expect: done perfectly, with a personal touch. If I was going to offer the “Alice” experience, we had to offer so much more than just cleaning and we had to feel like family when we stepped into someone’s home, bringing back that reliable cleaning service and old-fashioned, caring touch that’s all too rare these days. That’s why every one of our “Alices” loves what they do—they can’t wait to help you reclaim your free time and get back to enjoying life!
