Whether you're down the street or working remotely across the country, we provide the calm, expert guidance you need to keep your home office running smoothly.
I spent 20 years in enterprise IT across the New York metro area before returning home to the Pacific Northwest to start The IT Cottage. My goal is simple: give independent businesses and home-office professionals the caliber of tech support usually reserved for large corporations—with the patience, direct access, and personal care of a local partner.
For me, good IT has always been about working with people, not just machines. I built The IT Cottage on a straightforward premise: technology should empower your work, not frustrate your workday. When you reach out, you get direct access to an experienced, patient technician who genuinely enjoys untangling tricky problems—and explains solutions in plain English, not corporate jargon.
Whether you're managing cloud systems like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace or dealing with day-to-day software glitches, The Cottage is here to help. Based locally in Spokane, Washington, and supporting remote professionals nationwide—whatever your technology challenges, let's solve them together.
