The Doctor Clean journey
Where it all began
Jeff and Angela started Doctor Clean with a simple promise — honest work, fair prices, and carpets cleaned the right way. Word spread fast across Santa Cruz County.
A growing family
Hard at work raising a family and cleaning carpets, Jeff and Angela built the business on the same values they taught their kids — hard work and integrity. This photo was taken after their last child was born.
Still going strong
Their kids grew up putting themselves through college working for Doctor Clean, and have since left the nest — but Jeff and Angela are still on the job, delivering the best carpet cleaning in Santa Cruz at a price that can't be beat.

Loved by homeowners across Santa Cruz County
Real words from real neighbors. We've built our reputation one spotless carpet at a time.
Absolutely the best service in our area for carpet cleaning. We have been using Doctor Clean for over 10 years — they are on time, professional and fair in price. We have 3,000 sq ft of carpet and are very happy with the results. Highly recommend.
Very professional and friendly. Responded quickly and did an amazing job on my very dirty stairs. Important for me was that the carpet was not wet and soggy after Jeff was finished. Great service, great guy, highly recommend.
Doctor Clean is a knowledgeable and friendly service. The approach used to clean my carpets was different from any other company I have used. I had many deep stains in my carpets that are now gone. Thank you so much.
