WHEN YOU’RE NOT HERE
One call when something comes up.
Most of the time, the house is fine. The hard part is the day something comes up and you’re hours away.
“I’m back in the Bay Area. Can somebody please go over there and see what’s going on?”
“We’re arriving Friday. Can you make sure the cleaners finished and stock a few things for us?”
“The refrigerator delivery is Tuesday between 11 and 3. Can you be there?”
“The power was out last night. Is the house okay?”
“The plumber says it’s fixed. Can somebody get me a picture?”
They’re different requests. What they have in common is that they’re hard to handle from somewhere else. You call us. We already know the home.
WHAT WE MEAN BY STEWARDSHIP
Home watch is the visit. Stewardship is everything around it.
A home-watch visit tells you how the house looked that day. Stewardship means knowing the property over time — its routines, the people who work on it, what has already been done, and how you like things handled.
So when the power goes out, a delivery needs access, you want to confirm the cleaners finished, or something at the house needs attention, you’re not starting from scratch with somebody new.
You call us. We already know the home.
SERVICES
What we can help with.
Home watch is the starting point. The rest is having someone local who knows the property when something comes up.
02
Local Response & Coordination
If the power goes out, a leak becomes visible, storm damage or signs of wildlife activity appear, or you simply need someone to see what is happening, we can go over, document what we find, and handle the next step — whether that is a straightforward task we can take care of ourselves or coordinating the appropriate qualified provider.
03
Arrival & Departure
Before you arrive, we can confirm your house cleaners have finished, stock groceries and household basics from your list, bring in packages, or handle another straightforward task. After you leave, we can make a documented close-down visit and take care of reasonable loose ends you’ve left for us.
04
Seasonal Stewardship
We keep track of recurring seasonal needs. Some we can handle ourselves — raking ordinary yard debris, moving seasonal items, or making a dump run. Others, such as heating service, defensible-space work, landscaping, or tree work, call for the people who already service the property or a qualified specialist.
05
Everyday Help
Some things don’t need a contractor. They just need someone local who knows the house and can take care of them. A delivery needs someone there. Packages need to come inside. Pine needles need raking. Something needs to go to the dump or donation center. We can handle those practical local tasks when you can’t.
06
Boats & Vehicles
We coordinate seasonal and service needs through qualified providers — winterization, storage, spring commissioning, detailing, tires, transport and other requested care.
BOATS + VEHICLES
We can keep track of those, too.
If your Tahoe place includes a boat, personal watercraft or vehicle, we can coordinate the seasonal and service work around it through qualified providers. We don’t operate client boats or drive client vehicles.
HOME-WATCH VISITS
What we look at — and what we don’t.
Routine visits cover accessible areas of the house and property that we can reasonably observe. We don’t crawl through attics or crawlspaces, open walls, perform invasive testing, or try to diagnose hidden conditions.
If we see something that needs attention, we tell you what we observed. If it is a straightforward task we can reasonably handle, we can take care of it. When it calls for a qualified trade or specialist, we help coordinate the right person.
Knowing the difference is part of the service.
CONSTRUCTION EXPERIENCE
Useful when something needs attention.
About a decade of hands-on construction experience here in Tahoe gives us a practical eye once a problem becomes visible. It helps us communicate clearly with the appropriate trade and keep you informed while the work gets sorted out.
We don’t perform trade repairs ourselves, so our recommendations aren’t tied to selling you that work.
We can’t promise nothing will go wrong. What we can do is be here when something does.
WHO YOU’RE CALLING
A husband-and-wife team, based here in Tahoe.
One of us spent thirty-five years in the fire service, retiring as a captain and paramedic. The other spent years as an insurance broker managing several hundred client accounts, then ran a large Tahoe restaurant with roughly eighty to a hundred employees before retiring from the industry.
We raised four children along the way. They’re grown now, and we’re at a point where we have the time to build something together and be selective about the work we take on.
We keep the client list small so we can know the homes we look after and the people who own them.
Discretion is standard.
We don’t name our clients or post their homes. We use unbranded vehicles so our coming and going doesn’t draw attention to the house.
SERVICE AREA
