Security

An empty home is an invitation for squatters and burglars. House sitting ensures that your home never looks empty.

As well as looking after your home, The Home Service’s professional and trusted house sitters will maintain the security of your home whilst you are away, ensuring doors and windows are locked at night, curtains are drawn and, where appropriate, alarms are set. Our home sitters are bound by a comprehensive set of rules which means they will never leave your property unattended for more than 3 hours during the day and no more than 30 minutes after dark. Our home sitters will also handle post and any parcel deliveries.

 

The Home Service Ltd is a first class professional house sitting company who you can trust to look after your home and pets whilst you are away. We employ our own mature and trusted house sitters who are carefully vetted; we interview all of our house sitters in their own homes prior to appointment. Additionally, for your added peace of mind, you can rest assured that unlike some house sitting / home sitting organisations our home sitters are employed by us and therefore covered by our £10 million liability insurance.

We have a comprehensive set of rules that our house sitters must abide by whilst undertaking their assignment to look after your home, and this together with a detailed briefing document – provided by you by simply completing our template – ensures that your home and pets are cared for exactly to your wishes.  You can therefore be confident that whilst you are away our trusted house sitters will look after your home and pets and that you will return to find it exactly as you would like it to be. With this knowledge and peace of mind you will be able to relax and enjoy your holiday.
