Karen's staff did an amazing job! Everything sparkles. I can't say how much I appreciate the quality of their work, their attention to detail, and the joy I felt in finding my home transformed. Karen's staff is the BEST!

They were on their cellphones the entire time they were supposed to be cleaning. They mopped around things rather than moving them. They did not know to use different products on wood/marble/stainless. They left the trash outside of kitchen door instead of putting in the bins below. The house was still not clean after they left. VERY disappointed.

I have been using Karen's Kleaning for over 25 years. Karen has always been responsive and her cleaners have always been polite and done very good work. During this time of Covid-19, I have been particularly impressed with the care and concern, Karen has shown for her clients and the safety precautions she has taken.

We have been using Karen's Kleaning for years and have never had an issue. I had worked with other cleaning services previously that often forgot to return my calls or emails, which drove me crazy. Karen's Kleaning always responds to my communications and they do all they can to accommodate our needs. The workers are thorough, and my house is sparkling clean every time they come. Highly recommend.

We utilized Karen's Kleaning services for our move-out of our apartment and they did an amazing job. We walked in and it immediately smelled clean and fresh, way better than the state it was when we first moved in. It was definitely huge weight off of our shoulders knowing our apartment cleaning was in the best hands possible. I highly recommend Karen's Kleaning!

Karen's Kleaning is the best. They are fast, efficient, and always follow the instructions they are given. Their cleaning is consistent and very thorough. Of all the cleaners I have ever used, I find my house looks, feels, and smells clean when they are at my house. They polish all the surfaces after they clean them, which makes a big difference. I like to walk in the house and be able to tell they were there! That is always the case with Karen's Kleaning! Highly recommended!

I've been using Karen's Kleaning for about 4 years (approximately 6 times per year)- they've always done a great job. I would definitely recommend their services. They arrive on time and work efficiently.our apartment always looks fantastic after they've been there.the bathrooms sparkle, the kitchen is thoroughly cleaned, the floors look fantastic, and they always make sure to clean the balcony which is extra nice as it gets quite dusty/dirty out there. Scheduling appointments has always been easy, and the staff is very nice and professional.

I used Karen's Kleaning to clean my 3 room house on the Westside and they did a great job on all the rooms. Kitchen was sparkling clean, Bathroom looked terrific and Living Room was cleaned exceptionally well. They were on time and very efficient working quickly and thoroughly and they were friendly and courteous. They even cleaned the outside patio in our backyard when I requested it on the spot. I would definitely use them again. Thank you Karen's Kleaning!

We have been a monthly client for a couple of years, a standing day and time window for my dad. They only did average cleaning job but for the price it was ok. Out of the blue they called and can not clean on a specific day anymore we would have to be different days different times as she can "fit" you in she was so rude and unprofessional and started complaining about all of her scheduling problems. It was shocking how she spoke. Well I am happy to take my monthly $$ someplace else. Very unprofessional.

We moved to Montecito 6 years ago, and Karen's Kleaning have been my "GO-TO" house cleaning service the entire time. I love the way the email me weekly to confirm my appointment and the team is always punctual and respectful. They do a great job and I highly recommend them. Don't know what I would do without them.

I used Karen's Kleaning for my Move-out cleaning. I've lived in this apartment for a little over 3 years and hosted weekly game/beer/hangout nights with my friends. With KK's Move-out package I got 100% of my Security Deposit back for the first time in my life! The awards that KK has gotten over the years are well deserved!

Office was great. Cleaners friendly and on time. The one off job of cleaning my Wolf Range was done with a lack of detail. They did not even remove the utensil containers on the shelf of the range or think to clean them. They did not look under the range or think to vacuum under it. There was dried food still left in the cracks of the griddle. All that for $35 an hour-two people for two hours to clean a range, really!?

They sent two people to "fix It " the next day who had very little english and needed quit a bit of direction. I think for $35 AN HOUR, a very professional job should be done without supervision.

I have to say that I was not at all impressed or pleased with Karen's Kleaning. The staff was friendly but they did not clean well. For instance, the bathroom. They cleaned only one vanity sink even though both were being used. They did not scrub/clean the shower or the shower glass door, which was covered with water spots. They completely skipped over the jet bath tub which was dusty because we don't use it since the drought alert in California.

There were still cobwebs in corners, and all this in ONE bathroom. This pretty much set the tone for the rest of their cleaning diligence for the rest of the house. We will not be using them again. I use myself as the cleaning standard and they fell far short of that to my disappointment.

They are pleasant on the phone when scheduling and the women who came to clean our house were lovely but it's expensive and based on a time frame. Most money I've ever spent to have my house cleaned and the least thorough job as they didn't have time to finish. It basically works out to be $35 hour.

I love Karens kleaning! When I come home the house is so thoroughly clean and fresh.! It's the best decision I have made lately. After working hard all day and coming home to a spotless home is wonderful. I've been there when the girls have come to clean and I've also been at work while they clean. They are so organized and happy and friendly!

We've been using Karen's for almost a half a year to clean my Mom's home in Ventura. Either one or two cleaners show up and go right to work - making sure her place is thoroughly cleaned. Unlike some of the other comments, my experience has been very positive: scheduling changes (either from their side or mine) have always been discussed by phone days if not weeks in advance - with absolutely no issues. I highly recommend Karen's - and look forward to being a client for a very long time. Thanks!

They do the post-moveout cleaning for Del Playa rentals. I'm not sure if they work for any of the other awful, sketchy rental companies of Isla Vista. I hired a cleaning service before I moved out of my tiny, two bedroom apartment at a cost of $300. My landlord proceeded to charge me again for cleaning (not Karen's fault), and provided a lovely receipt from Karen's Kleaning.

They kindly noted that my unit needed a "little less than average attention" (how nice! I'm flattered.). Since it needed so little attention, they billed me at $40/hour, for 13.75 man hours, (!) amounting to $550. I assumed that this was an exaggeration, or the landlord trying to get money out of me, but NO, it was actually a legitimate charge.

These people are a bunch of snakes in bed with crooked landlords if they really think they can clean an already-clean apartment for 14 hours and $40/hour (according to CA law, $20/hour is acting in good faith for a cleaning charge). They may be fine for residential service, but their unethical business practices should not go unaired.

Run! Don't use this company, the owner is a total nightmare. She called and texted my phone non stop demanding payment within the first twenty four hours after the work was done. Then she tried to charge more than what was agreed, I should say greed! The worst attitude ever!

I've used them twice for move-out cleaning, and their crew does an OUTSTANDING job of getting everything really really clean! I'm kind of picky about details like getting into the corners and behind the toilets, etc., and I have to say, I've never had any other service be as thorough! They will also do the carpets, walls, and windows if you make arrangements ahead of time, which makes a big difference.

The carpet guys got out stains I didn't think would ever come out! I really like that they work by how long it takes to make it super clean, rather than by how much they can get done within a certain time-frame. I also liked that I didn't have to hang around while they were working--The crew was very prompt, I let them in, left, and they locked everything up when they left.

I thought their prices were reasonable, they take credit cards, and they did everything as well or better than I would do it myself, so it was well worth it! I'd definitely recommend them if you're looking for professional, honest, and thorough.

I am very pleased with this crew so far - they take Visa, they keep a file on your preferences, and they are able to let themselves in (they don't need you to hang around and guard them like the other people we had). They seem to actually get things clean and gave a follow-up call to check how things went. Happy. I will probably add another star after the next cleaning, if it carries on this well.
