Is Assurance Home Watch NEPA a house-sitting service?

No. We are a professional service that schedules regular visits to your property while you are away and sends you a report on the status of your home. Accredited members of the the National Home Watch Association are trained to locate and report on issues observed home and property. Alternately, house-sitting is when a person physically lives in the home during your absence. House-sitters usually do not have a business license and do not carry any insurance for any damages that may occur.

Why do I need a home watch service?
