Frequently Asked Questions

What is Home Watch?
Home Watch is “a visual inspection of a home or property, looking for obvious issues.”

Are you a house sitter service?
We are not house sitters. Our core service includes periodic visits to your home where we follow a specific and mutually agreed upon checklist. We are in your home on a weekly or bi-weekly basis and take great pride in making sure your home is as you left it.

What type of reporting can I expect from you?

We have a neighborhood watch program. Doesn’t that do the same thing?
Most neighborhood watch programs are passive by nature and do not provide the level of engagement with your property that Keeping Watch LLC provides. We will check your property’s interior and exterior in far more detail than you can expect from a neighborhood watch program.

If I need coordination with contractors doing work on my home can you help?

If you find a problem what type of notification will I receive?

Can you help me with home maintenance services?
