Is My Child Ready for a Sleepaway Camp?

Why Every Second Home in Boston or Cape Cod Needs a Trusted Home Check-In Service

Owning a second home is one of life’s great luxuries, but it’s also one of the easiest ways to double your to-do list.

Maybe you spend your weekdays in Boston and your weekends on the Cape. Or perhaps your Cape Cod home is a summer escape that sits empty through fall and winter. Whatever the setup, one thing stays the same: when a house is left unattended, things can go wrong (and that can be nerve-wracking and stressful).

You lock the doors, lower the thermostat, and close up for the season. But even with the best preparation, small things can quickly become big problems when no one’s there to notice them. A leaking pipe, a tripped circuit, a full mailbox, or even an unexpected storm can create costly issues if left unchecked.

That’s why more and more homeowners are turning to professional home check-in services for that extra layer of protection, care, and peace of mind when they can’t be there themselves.

Whether it’s a summer night at Fenway, a concert downtown, or a Broadway show on tour, there’s an easier way to make it happen (and it doesn’t involve fifteen browser tabs and a waitlist).
