Anne’s connection to Merry Maids began over 30 years ago when she married Rob Mascari, who, alongside his brother Tom Mascari, first began their journey with Merry Maids by establishing their first franchise. Following Tom’s passing, Rob went on to open three additional Merry Maids franchise locations throughout Maryland, continuing to grow the business and the legacy they had built together.
Following Rob’s unexpected passing in 2020, Anne stepped into the role of owner, carrying forward the business and the legacy Rob and Tom worked so hard to establish.
Before her journey with Merry Maids, Anne spent 13 years as an Intelligence Analyst with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), a career she absolutely loved and describes as the time of her life.
Anne and Rob raised three wonderful children together, and today, one of Anne’s greatest joys is watching them grow into young adults and seeing all the amazing things they continue to accomplish.
As the owner of our four Maryland locations, Anne takes great pride in the hard work and dedication our team members and staff put into making our customers happy. She especially cherishes the culture within our offices, describing it as “respectful, purposeful, humorous, and full of love.” Creating a supportive and welcoming environment where employees feel appreciated and connected is at the heart of her leadership.
Since becoming the owner, Anne has also gained a deeper appreciation for the thought and care that goes into every Merry Maids cleaning. She shares that she has learned “there are specific processes and details to each of our cleanings at Merry Maids”. This attention to detail is an important part of what makes the Merry Maids experience unique, ensuring that each home receives the care and thoroughness our customers expect.
Anne also recognizes the tremendous effort our cleaning teams put into their work, sharing, “Team members work extremely hard to clean to make customers happy and satisfied.” She takes pride in knowing that the work our team members do each day makes a meaningful difference for the families we serve.
At the heart of Anne’s perspective on Merry Maids is the time we give back to our customers. She shares “Merry Maids is there so that people have more time to do what they want.” By taking care of the cleaning, our teams give customers the opportunity to spend more time with their families, pursue the things they enjoy, or simply have more time for themselves.
Anne’s dedication to her family, her employees, and the business Rob and Tom built continues to shape our Merry Maids family today. We are incredibly grateful for her leadership and for the love and care she brings to our team and the customers we serve.
