Property Care
Home Check-Ins & Away Care
Going out of town? Arrange short-term visits to check agreed areas of your home, with photos and a clear update after each stop.
What to expect
How we handle home check-ins & away care
Travel should not mean wondering what is happening back home. We agree on the visit dates, authorized areas, and what matters most before you leave, then send a concise, photo-backed update after each check-in. This is a short-term service; you do not need an ongoing Property Watch plan.
- 1Confirm your travel window, visit frequency, contact person, and the areas we may enter. Arrange access through the secure customer portal after the visit is approved.
- 2Build a visit checklist around your priorities, such as doors and gates, visible storm damage, packages, bins, plants, or signs of a leak.
- 3At each scheduled visit, check the agreed areas, note anything unusual, and document observations with photos where appropriate.
- 4Send the visit time, checklist, photos, and any recommended next step to your portal. If we notice an urgent concern, we contact you using the agreed plan.
The GoFetch approach
A clear plan, a careful visit, and a record you can use.
Good property care starts with understanding your goals - not just checking off a task. The depth of the walkthrough and documentation matches the job, and you stay in control of added work.
1. We listen first
Tell us what is bothering you now, what you want the property to become, and what you would rather handle yourself. We note priorities, timing, pets, access, and anything that must be protected.
2. We walk the work
We review photos and, when the job needs it, walk the relevant areas with you. We identify boundaries, surfaces, materials, quantities, access, visible risks, and the conditions that could change the scope.
3. We make a visual record
With your permission, we photograph the agreed work areas and notable conditions before work begins. Useful measurements and counts are labeled, and private spaces or personal items are not photographed unnecessarily.
4. We agree on the plan
You receive a clear description of the included work, exclusions, optional add-ons, timing, and quote. We confirm the plan with you before scheduling; discoveries that change it go back to you for approval.
5. We keep you informed
You know who is assigned and when to expect the visit. For longer jobs, we share useful progress updates. If we find something outside the plan, we explain it and ask before doing extra work.
6. We show what changed
After the visit, we record the work done with notes, relevant before-and-after photos, and quantities when practical. You can see what was completed, what still needs attention, and which next steps are optional.
For recurring service, this becomes a living property record: visits, photos, notes, and your priorities can be updated as the property changes.
Why GoFetch
More than a finished task - you see the work.
We agree on the scope before we begin, keep you informed about the visit, and document what we completed. If this becomes a recurring service, your full Property Passport walkthrough gives every FetchPro context; photos, checklists, useful quantities, and recommendations build a record you can actually use.
Suggestions are yours to decide: ask GoFetch to quote the work, handle it yourself, or come back to it later. Extra work is not added without approval.
The scope
What this service can cover
We tailor the work to the property and confirm the included tasks in writing before scheduling.
- Scheduled exterior walkaround and visible-condition check
- Approved indoor checks when access and scope are arranged in advance
- Package, mail, bin, or plant attention when included in your quote
- Visit photos, notes, and an issue report you can review remotely
This is a scheduled visual check-in, not overnight house sitting, security monitoring, emergency response, a licensed home inspection, or a guarantee that every problem will be found. Interior entry and hands-on tasks require advance approval; repairs are quoted separately.
Make it your own
Related work you can add
These are optional services. Add them to the same quote so we can review the whole property together.

Do you handle residential and commercial properties?
Yes. Select the property type in the quote request so we can review access, scheduling, and scope correctly.
Can this be a recurring service?
Many services can be scheduled weekly, every other week, monthly, or seasonally. We will recommend a practical frequency after reviewing the property.
Will photos help?
Yes. Photos can clarify volume, access, surface condition, equipment needs, and other details before an on-site review.
