SparkleClean Maid Service was founded in Alexandria, VA in 2009 by Sarah Pelletier, an American University graduate formerly working in the Washington DC hospitality industry. Our story began over 15 years ago when Sarah saw a need for reliable and thorough residential cleaning service in the wake of the housing market crash. SparkleClean was started by cleaning bank foreclosures, and through dedication to quality, customer satisfaction, and a commitment to caring for our employees, SparkleClean has grown into a trusted maid service and cleaning company serving the Northern Virginia area.
A Team You Can Trust
At SparkleClean, we believe the foundation of a great cleaning service rests on our team. That’s why we take pride in hiring only the most experienced and professional maids. All of our staff members are actual employees, not 1099 independent contactors like many of our “competitors.” We go beyond background checks – we look for true professional maids who are not only passionate about cleaning but also share our commitment to exceeding customer expectations.
Meet Our Teams
Our goal at SparkleClean is to provide exceptional cleaning services tailored to your home’s unique needs. We believe that strong office support and building good relationships with our clients is key to achieving this, which is why we want you to get to know our amazing cleaning teams!
Red Team – Led by Raquel

She is a senior team leader and alongside her, the Red team specialize in SparkleClean’s deep cleaning and spring cleaning routines, tackling even the toughest messes with ease. You’ll often find the Red Team conquering homes with their power scrubbers, steamer, various extension poles and brushes, scrubbing everything in homes from Alexandria to Arlington, leaving them sparkling from top to bottom.
Blue Team – Led by Jenifer and Flor
Jenifer and Flor both have a passion for creating clean spaces. Their team is very experienced and excels at maintaining homes. You will see them sparkle and shine homes every 1, 2 and 4 weeks. And for many spring cleans and deep cleans as well. Grease and grime is no match for our expertise! If you live inside the Beltway, chances are you’ve experienced the Blue Team’s magic in keeping your home spotless.
Green Team – Led by Lesny
Lesny brings her love of “making things pretty” to the Green Team, with a special dedication to historic homes. Her team cleans carefully, ensuring each property retains its unique charms while receiving SparkleClean’s signature routine. You’ll often find them buzzing around Old Town Alexandria, carefully dusting historic furnishings and helping local history shine. If you reside in Old Town, chances are you’ve seen the Green Team’s work firsthand. Originally from El Salvador, Lesny has deep roots in her culture—she loves pupusas and birria tacos, a dish where the tortillas are dipped and cooked in the broth of shredded meat. When she’s not making homes look their best, she’s soaking in the beauty of nature through scenic hikes.
Yellow Team – Led by Arely
Our Yellow Team tackles post-construction cleanups with precision, ensuring your newly renovated home is spotless and ready to enjoy. Equipped with HEPA filters, they trap fine white dust and carry it away, leaving behind a clean, breathable space free from any lingering debris. You’ll often spot Arely leading her team down the Express Lanes and beyond, heading to the farthest reaches of our service areas—from Burke and Fairfax Station to Fairfax and Falls Church. Beyond construction cleanups, this dedicated team has built a loyal list of recurring customers, returning weekly or monthly to deliver SparkleClean’s signature clean.
