About This Service
Your Naples Home Doesn't Take a Season Off
You leave Naples for the summer. Your home doesn't. The humidity doesn't stop. The storms don't pause. The AC still runs, the plumbing still sits. A vacant home in Southwest Florida isn't just sitting there — it's exposed to risks that compound the longer you're away.
Neat Nest Cleaning Home Watch services give seasonal residents and snowbirds a trusted set of eyes on their property year-round. I perform regular inspections on a schedule you choose, document everything with photos, and handle any issues that come up — before they become expensive problems.
I'm already inside the homes of Naples homeowners every week as a cleaning professional. Home Watch is a natural extension of the trust my clients already place in me — the same background-checked person, the same attention to detail, the same accountability.

Beyond the Inspection
Additional Home Watch Services
Home Watch isn't just about looking — sometimes your property needs hands-on attention while you're away.
Storm Preparation
When a tropical storm or hurricane watch is issued, I secure your outdoor furniture, check shutters, verify generator readiness, and take pre-storm precautions. Post-storm, I inspect for damage and send a full photo report.
Vendor Coordination
Need to let the pest control company in? Waiting for a plumber? Expecting a delivery? I meet vendors at your property, supervise the work, and report back with photos.
Mail & Package Collection
I collect accumulated mail, packages, and flyers from your mailbox and entryway — preventing the visible signs of vacancy.
HVAC Filter Changes
I replace your HVAC filters on the manufacturer-recommended schedule. You supply the filters or I purchase and bill at cost.
Water System Maintenance
Beyond running faucets, I can coordinate water heater flushes, irrigation checks, and pool service communication.
Pre-Arrival Preparation
Heading back to Naples? I prepare your home — run the AC down, open blinds, air out the house, stock basic groceries on request.
Hurricane Season
Hurricane Season Peace of Mind
Naples sits in one of the most hurricane-active corridors in the country. Atlantic hurricane season runs June through November — overlapping directly with the months most snowbirds are away.
Pre-Storm Securing
Outdoor furniture secured or moved inside. Shutters checked and closed. Pool equipment powered down. Generator checked. Property perimeter secured. Pre-storm photo documentation taken.
Post-Storm Assessment
Full exterior inspection within 24–48 hours. Interior inspection for water intrusion. Complete photo report sent to you. Emergency vendor coordination if repairs needed. Insurance documentation support.
Complete Coverage
The Complete Peace-of-Mind Package
Home Watch and recurring cleaning work better together than apart. Most of my snowbird clients combine both.
While You're Away
Monthly recurring cleaning keeps your home dust-free, aired out, and maintained. Home Watch inspections monitor for leaks, storm damage, pest intrusion, HVAC issues, and everything else.
When You Return
Step up to biweekly or weekly recurring cleaning for your in-season schedule. Home Watch pauses until you head north again.
The Result
Your Naples home is never unmonitored. Clean when you arrive, maintained while you're here, protected while you're away. One person, one relationship.
Bundle discount: Clients who combine Home Watch with recurring cleaning receive 10% off their Home Watch plan.
Who I Serve
Who My Home Watch Clients Are
Snowbirds & Seasonal Residents
You spend winters in Naples and summers elsewhere. You need someone you trust checking on your home regularly — and you don't want to rely on a neighbor.
Frequent Travelers
You live in Naples full-time but travel often. Your home sits empty for weeks at a time, and you want to know it's being looked after.
Luxury Homeowners
You own a high-value property in Port Royal, Pelican Bay, Grey Oaks, or another premium community. The stakes are higher and you want professional oversight.
Second-Home Owners
Naples is your second home — you visit for holidays, long weekends, or short stretches. Between visits, your home needs regular attention.

Frequently Asked Questions
Home watch is a professional property monitoring service for homeowners who are away from their home for extended periods. A trained, insured professional visits your property on a regular schedule, performs a comprehensive interior and exterior inspection, documents everything with photos, and reports any issues immediately.
Home Watch plans range from $75–$95 per visit depending on frequency. Weekly visits are $75/visit, biweekly is $85/visit, and monthly is $95/visit. Clients who also use recurring cleaning service receive an additional 10% discount.
I recommend biweekly visits as the minimum for snowbirds away 4–6 months. Weekly visits provide the highest level of protection and are recommended for luxury properties, homes in flood-prone areas, or during hurricane season. Monthly visits are appropriate for shorter absences of 1–3 months.
I contact you immediately by phone with details and photos. If the issue is urgent — an active leak, storm damage, security breach — I take reasonable steps to mitigate the damage and coordinate emergency repairs on your behalf.
Yes. When a tropical storm or hurricane watch is issued, I secure outdoor furniture, check shutters, verify generator readiness, and take pre-storm precautions. After the storm, I perform a full inspection and send a detailed photo report within 24–48 hours.
Yes. I meet pest control, plumbers, electricians, landscapers, pool service, and any other vendors at your property. I supervise the work, verify completion, and report back with photos.
Absolutely. Pre-arrival preparation includes setting the AC to your preferred temperature, opening blinds, airing out the home, and making sure everything is ready. Grocery stocking is available on request.
No. Home watch is a professional inspection and monitoring service — not a live-in arrangement. I visit on a scheduled basis, perform a documented inspection, and report back. I do not stay overnight or occupy the property.
They serve different purposes. Recurring cleaning maintains cleanliness. Home watch monitors safety, security, and physical condition — HVAC operation, leak detection, pest intrusion, storm damage, and more. Most snowbird clients use both together for complete coverage.
