Daniela Ortega
Founder and owner
Cleaned homes in Miami Shores for six years before starting Lemon & Linen in 2016 with one car and one other cleaner.
Home / About
A Miami Shores cleaning company, started by a cleaner.
Lemon & Linen has been cleaning homes north of the Design District since 2016. Fourteen employees, six routes and one standard.
Why we started
Daniela Ortega cleaned homes for other companies for six years. She watched clients get a different stranger every visit and cleaners get paid for the hours in a home but not the hours in traffic between them.
She started Lemon & Linen in 2016 on two rules: every client keeps the same team, and every cleaner is an employee paid from the time they leave the first home to the time they leave the last.
Happy cleaners stay. Our team leads have been with us an average of four years, which is why your team still knows where you keep the extra paper towels.

What we promise every client
Same team
If your team lead is out sick, we call you before sending anyone new.
30-minute window
Fixed routes mean we arrive when we said, and text if traffic says otherwise.
Re-clean in 24 hours
Send a photo of anything missed. We come back free, no argument.
More from our clients
“Same two women every other Thursday for a year and a half now. They know which rug can't go in the wash and that the cat hides under the guest bed.”
“We booked a move-out clean on two days' notice. The landlord did the walkthrough with a white glove, literally, and we got the full deposit back.”
“I run two rentals in Sunny Isles. They turn both units between 11 and 3, send photos of every room, and flag anything a guest broke.”
“The quote online was the price I paid. No 'we'll see when we get there.' That alone got my business.”
“A baseboard got missed in the hallway. I texted a photo at 6pm and Yolanda was back the next morning before work.”
“My mother is 84 and nervous about strangers. They sent the same team lead every time and she now saves coffee for her.”
