Trusted by Chicago Professionals, Executives & Professional Athletes

 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“We were extremely satisfied with the services of Home Watch Chicago. We relocated from Chicago to Boston, however we were not able to sell our Chicago condo for almost a year. Home Watch Chicago took care of our property the entire time it was on the market. With a dual-career family and twin babies on the way, we could not have gotten through that year without them. We highly recommend their services to anyone who needs their assets cared for while they are away.”

Why We Exist

People deserve the privilege of not having to worry about the place they love most.


A home is more than a structure.


It is where life happens.


It holds your memories, your routines, and the people and things you value most.


Entrusting someone with its care is a deeply personal decision.

It should never feel transactional.


At Home Watch Chicago, we believe every homeowner deserves the confidence of knowing their home is being thoughtfully cared for by people who understand the responsibility they've accepted.

Home Watch Chicago provides professional residential property oversight for absentee homeowners, seasonal residents, and second-home owners throughout Chicago and surrounding communities. Through scheduled, checklist-based visits, we help identify visible concerns early, document our observations, and keep you informed while you're away.
