Our family owned and operated business came about after searching for a professional Home Watch business in PEI to look after our home when we were away. We were not able to find a single business in Prince Edward Island that offers this much needed service.
We were shocked when we called our insurance company and discovered that we were required to physically have someone check our home so often. Even with a fancy alarm system that measures heat and moisture, it is still recommended that you have someone physically check your house at least twice a week. Alarm systems can't replace what the human eyes and ears can detect. All insurance companies have different regulations, so you need to ask just what your particular insurance policy requires.
We didn't want a house sitter ( someone we didn't know ) coming and staying in our home and sleeping in our bed, and using our things, and maybe even damaging our home or belongings. We also didn't want to burden friends, neighbors or relatives to take time out of their busy schedules to look after our home.
We were looking for a reputable, professional company. A company who would come and do visual checks of our home while we were away, according to our insurance policy's requirements, and report back to us on a regular basis so we could enjoy peace of mind when we were away. Just as we make sure we take out out of the country medical coverage when we travel to insure ourselves, we felt that hiring a professionally trained business to look after our most important asset when we were away was well worth it.
Sadly, our in depth investigation didn't turn up any Home Watch companies in Canada east of Ontario, and we decided we needed to change that !
After a lot of research, and a lot of training, we opened PEI Home Watch Professionals , as we felt Prince Edward Islanders deserved to have the benefits of a professional home watch service just as was being offered in Ontario and western Canada.
Allow us to introduce you to our current team....
Kim Monteith is no stranger to business and customer service. Kim was a senior loans officer for years with CIBC, and then started a long and successful career in the world of travel , eventually opening up her own Travel/Tour company in 2007 called Coronation Travel. It continues to be a highly trusted and reputable business, with a very large following across Canada, and into Australia. Exceptional customer service and attention to detail are two areas about which Kim is adamant. She is a true perfectionist with exceptionally high standards and an entrepreneurial spirit, and genuinely cares about her clients. Many of Kim's clients have become lifetime friends.
Martin Stearns, Kim's husband, had a long career with the City of Charlottetown, primarily in the Water Department. His extensive knowledge of water systems and experience with the many issues surrounding just what can and often does go wrong and the resulting devastation , provides our company with a wealth of expertise. Taps, fittings, boilers, furnaces, thermostats, toilets, faucets, pipes, and hoses are all on Martin's radar, in looking for areas of concern. In addition to being a "water wizard ", Martin is one of those truly nice guys who goes out of his way for people. He has a gentle and quiet demeanor, and is a highly respected, true "salt of the earth" kind of guy . He brings a lot of experience about a lot of systems to our team.
Shannon Morriscey is Kim's daughter. Always kind, helpful and professional, Shannon has proven time and again that hard work and determination bring rewards and satisfaction. Shannon is a certified RCW, and has been working in nursing and healthcare for 20 years between nursing homes, group homes and dental clinics. Always there to pitch in and give a helping hand, she is highly regarded by clients and co-workers. Shannon has amazing organizational skills, and a superior work ethic that has earned her high accolades throughout her career. An eye for detail and keen observational skills enable Shannon to identify issues before they become problems .As a previous single homeowner Mom for many years, Shannon was responsible for understanding and recognizing faulty systems and potential concerns, and learned a lot through experience and necessity.
Kent MacDonald is the other half of the Morriscey-MacDonald union. Kent works in the home heating industry in PEI , after many years of working in the petroleum supply industry in northern Alberta. Kent brings many skills to our team with his vast knowledge of mechanical and home maintenance systems. Kent is no stranger to hard work and excellent customer service, and can often be found on the road late in the evening helping a client or family member in need. Kent has a big heart and an even bigger smile, and can always be counted on to get a job done. Looking after two of his own properties has given Kent lots of first hand experience with the various issues needing attention that can arise on a property.
