Sounds Familiar?
A little peace of mind for every trip away from home.
You’ve put time and care into making your house a home. It’s natural to wonder how things are going while you’re away. From mail piling up to an unexpected leak, some things need an in-person check. If those worries tend to travel with you, Kaitlyn’s Kuddles is here to help.
House Checks
Give yourself peace of mind while you’re away with our professional home check services. Designed for homeowners who want an extra set of eyes on their property, our home checks help ensure everything remains safe, secure, and in good order while you’re traveling or away from home.
Our professional pet care team will visit your home according to your scheduled check-in and make sure everything looks as it should. We can check doors and windows, look for signs of leaks or other issues, bring in mail and packages, adjust lights or blinds, water plants, take out trash, and complete other simple home care tasks requested in advance.
Each visit is completed with care and attention to detail, and you’ll receive photos and a detailed visit report so you can stay informed even when you’re miles away.
This service is ideal for vacations, business trips, extended time away from home, or anyone who wants the added reassurance that their home is being checked regularly.
Please note: Home checks are intended for routine monitoring and basic household tasks. They do not include repairs, maintenance work, or emergency services. Any concerns discovered during a visit will be promptly communicated to you.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often do you check in on my home?
We check in as often as you need: daily, every other day, or a set number of times per week. We'll recommend a frequency based on the length of your trip and your home's specific needs
What exactly do you check during each visit?
We do a full interior walkthrough checking for leaks, unusual odors, HVAC issues, and anything out of the ordinary. We verify all entry points are secure, collect mail and packages, rotate lights and blinds, and document everything with photos.
What happens if you find a problem?
We contact you immediately, same day, same visit. We'll describe what we found, send photos, and help coordinate next steps if needed. We have your emergency contacts and preferred vendors on file.
Are you insured in case something happens during a house check?
Yes. Kaitlyn's Kuddles Pet Services is fully bonded and insured. Every team member is a W-2 employee covered under our business policy, not an independent contractor working without coverage. If something unexpected happens during a visit, you are protected.
Do you water plants or handle other household tasks?
Yes. Plant watering, fridge checks, taking out trash, and other light household tasks can be added to your check plan. We'll go over your specific needs during the consultation.
