Welcome to
The House Watchers

In business for half a decade, House Watchers was founded to fill a void that existed due to the scarcity of home-watching services licensed by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Based in Winchester, MA, House Watchers aims to serve the home watching, housesitting needs of all homes throughout the Route 128 area (including such towns as Winchester, Medford, Arlington, Lexington, Woburn, Stoneham, Wakefield, Reading, Wellesley, Weston, Melrose, Wakefield, Belmont, Cambridge, Somerville and Wayland). Clients include seniors who have chosen to remain in their home, individuals who travel seasonally, snow birds or people who travel regularly for work. In addition, House Watchers monitors and maintains homes that are owners’ secondary residences or are under their care as a result of unique family circumstances. Our home watch and concierge services include plant care, light repair or installation, package retrieval, storm preparation, automotive care, and grocery shopping.

For many, a home is their most valuable asset. The House Watchers are licensed Home Watchers by Massachusetts and professionally trained to keep homes safe. Fully accredited by the National Home Watch Association, House Watchers remains committed to keeping Massachusetts’ homes safe and their homeowners at ease while they travel. To guarantee the security of your home, trust the professional House Watchers.

    Summer 2024 was our first use of House-Watchers to keep an eye on our Winchester home during two several-week vacations away. John & Frank provided us with bi-weekly, detailed, thorough email reports, covering everything I would keep an eye on myself if I were at home, and more. John even handled a couple landscaping issues that arose during our absence. The peace of mind this afforded us was well worth it and we'll definitely engage them again when we next travel.

    We have worked with Frank and The House Watchers numerous times to help us better serve our real estate clients. We have always been extremely pleased with his professionalism, efficiency and ability to problem solve. Highly recommend and look forward to working with him again!

    In differing capacities, I have been a client of The House Watchers for a number of years, ever since good friends of ours (now former Winchester residents) recommended Frank and his team to us. We initially used them seasonally when out of state. More recently, upon our recommendation, the company became full time for my parent's Winchester home after my father's fall and their, believed to be temporary, move to respite/assisted living. HW monitored my parent's home weekly for what turned into two and a half years. Weekly reports were provided and my parents, and later us family, were able to feel confident that the house was in good hands. My father has now passed, and the house recently sold, but The House Watchers continued to check on it until just days before the RE closing. Thank you!
