Travel Tip #3: Home sitter and timers

It is always a good idea to have someone check on your home if you are gone longer than a weekend. However, timers can play a important part if they set up appropriately. You aren’t fooling anyone if the same lights turn on at exactly the same time every day. But now you can find timers that can duplicate your daily activities. It can save your habit when turning on and off your lights for a couple days. And when you leave your home, it will turn your lights on and off exactly the way you do in the last few days.

If you are comfortable with it, having someone stay at your home provides great peace of mind. They will be there in case the furnace or air conditioner shuts off, the water tank bursts or a storm hits the area. Plus more and more insurance agencies are requiring that a minimum someone must walk through your home every few days. Double check with yours to see what expectations are.
