I think the only way to prevent the situation you describe is to clean your house yourself, or hire someone who you know and trust. People who clean houses are low income, and background checks are not always effective. The cleaning company really cannot ensure you that the people they send to your house won't steal something. And, they probably cannot afford to adequately investigate a theft or to just pay you $2,000 for a bracelet that they know nothing about. It is an unfortunate situation with no solution. Just my opinion.
