Reality is that if a true house watcher, one of the first questions asked is if anyone else has access to the house. If so, the house watcher’s insurance is void and any risk is then on the homeowner.
Having a friend or relative watch a home is not a good idea. If something goes wrong, someone will probably be paying out of pocket for damages and it won’t be the insurance company if the house watcher was even remotely negligent.

Interesting.
So you are advising that if you hire someone to watch/look in on your house...they should be insured & bonded?
Have you seen, or heard of, an issue happening with a friend/neighbor watching a house?
I've done this for neighbors in the past...but this now gives me pause.
