OUR STORY
About Faithfully Maid
Faithfully Maid was founded in 2016 after what started as a simple favor for a friend who was moving. One cleaning job quickly led to another, and before long word-of-mouth referrals began spreading throughout the community.
Since then, Faithfully Maid has grown into a trusted local business serving homes, rentals, and businesses across Snohomish County. In addition to residential and commercial cleaning, we frequently work with real estate professionals and can coordinate additional services such as carpet cleaning, window cleaning, landscaping, and contractor work when needed.
Sometimes that means coordinating multiple services on the same day — one call, several services, and one simple invoice.
FOUNDER & OWNER
Meet Gisela
Faithfully Maid is owned and operated by Gisela Howell, who brings passion, energy, and attention to detail to everything she does.
Before starting the business, Gisela worked as a personal trainer, training clients out of her garage gym in Marysville. Her home was always spotless, and clients often joked they could eat off the floors.
Gisela lives in Arlington with her husband, a general contractor, and their son, who eats, sleeps, and breathes baseball. Their family also runs a small farm and values a strong Christian household rooted in hard work, integrity, and care for others.
Outside of work, Gisela enjoys hiking, camping, and kayaking. She also loves singing, dancing, and theater.
What she enjoys most about this business is the people. From busy families and working professionals to households caring for elderly or disabled loved ones, every client has a story. Being trusted to care for their homes is something she takes seriously.
