Home Minding

Home Minder is a service we offer our clients who travel frequently and want someone to keep an eye on their home, mail, and garbage while away. As seen above, minder is a British word. A friend of mine whose husband has dementia, employs a minder to look after him through the day while she works. Keith Richards, not suprisingly, has a minder, and I am here for you for when your home needs minding!

Example: Alki Beach Home
