Actually, there are things that really should be done on an ongoing basis such as running the dishwasher and washing machine at least once a month (every 2 weeks is better) to keep the seals from drying out. Also, a good homewatch person will have weekly eyes on things like bugs, leaks, dropped packages, malfunctioning sprinklers etc....etc...etc. Much better than walking away and leaving the home closed up.
