Your home, checked every week, with photos.
For Palos Verdes and South Bay homeowners who travel, our planned service combines scheduled interior and exterior checks with a same-day photo report. Visits begin only after local staffing and coverage are confirmed.
Plans from $170/month · Accepting consultation requests · English / Español
Coded keys, logged
One key per home, never labeled with a name or address, checked in and out of a locked log.
Same-day report
Photos and notes reach you within hours of the visit — or our manager is alerted.
Vetted before service
Background checks, references and insurance verification are required before the first paid home visit.
Built around how long you're away.
Plans are priced monthly; billing is scheduled for the 1st once your service is active. Pause for a full month in residence with 7 days’ notice, subject to your service agreement.

If something's wrong
All clear
Everything dry, locked, normal — photo report only.
Needs you
Small leak, A/C not cooling, sprinkler stuck on, mail piling up — photo and text within 1 hour, a call the same day, a vendor quote if needed.
Urgent
Active leak, gas smell, broken window, alarm going off — water or power shut off if safe, immediate call, report within 1 hour. We don't enter if it isn't safe.
A note on insurance. Many homeowners policies limit or exclude coverage when a home sits unoccupied for 30–60 consecutive days, and often require documented inspections — commonly weekly or biweekly — to maintain coverage. A time-stamped photo report helps document that. Please confirm your own policy's wording with your carrier; CCSPC doesn't advise on coverage.
Only when you need them.
Added to any plan and billed only when used.

What Home Watch is not
Home Watch is a scheduled visual check — not a security patrol, not a repair service, not house-sitting, and not personal care.
If something needs fixing, we report it, get your approval, and coordinate a licensed vendor. We don't do plumbing or electrical work ourselves.
A household concierge and property-check service — not security, property inspection, licensed contracting, or emergency response.
Where we watch homes
Palos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills, Rolling Hills Estates, Redondo Beach, Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach, Torrance and San Pedro — with a small, deliberately limited route so no visit gets rushed.
Home watch questions
What exactly is home watch?
A scheduled property check. We visit your home on a set schedule, walk the interior and exterior against the same 24-point checklist, collect mail and packages, and send you a time-stamped photo report the same day.
How often do you visit?
Weekly on Signature and Estate, every other week on Essential. Extra visits outside your plan are $99 each.
Do you go inside the house?
Yes. Home watch here means interior and exterior — thermostat, water heater, under every sink, faucets and toilets run, appliances, smoke and CO detectors — plus the roofline, doors, windows, pool equipment and mail.
What do I get after each visit?
A one-page photo report by text and email, the same day, in English or Spanish: status, time-stamped photos, a short note and your next visit date. No report means no visit.
Who actually visits my home?
Local Home Watch visits will begin after a vetted watcher and backup are hired, screened and appropriately insured or bonded. Keys will be coded, never labeled with a name or address, and logged in and out.
Can you let a contractor in while I'm away?
Yes. Vendor watch is $80 per hour with a one-hour minimum: we let them in, stay while they work, and lock up afterward.
Is this a security service or a home inspection?
No. It's a household property-check service — visual only. Not a security patrol, licensed inspection, contracting service, or emergency response.
Am I locked in?
No. Plans run month to month. Pause with 7 days' notice when you're home, and cancel with 30 days' notice.
Start with your dates.
Tell us when you're away and what worries you most — a leak, the pool, the mail. We'll discuss availability and onboarding, then arrange an intake walkthrough after your written agreement and local watcher are confirmed.
