Your home is not just a physical space; it's a sanctuary where you and your loved ones find solace and security from the challenges of the outside world. By implementing straightforward yet effective security practices, you have the power to not only enhance the physical safety of your dwelling but also foster a sense of tranquility and assurance for those who matter most to you. This, in turn, cultivates an environment where everyone can thrive and enjoy life to the fullest without constant worry or fear.

Good morning, Dorie... one of my best security features is my dog, Bingo! And he doesn't ask for much except a daily meal, some treats, some toys, and a daily walk and romp in our dog park!

I grew up in a small town where we didn't even have to lock our front doors so it saddens me to see the need for so much security in the world these days.

Dorie Dillard Austin TX - wise advice and good video too! Today, more than ever, security should be at the forefront of everyone's mind.

Hi Brian England ,

We never locked our doors growing up and never thought twice about playing all day outdoors and not checking in. It's a different world out there!

Hi Patricia Feager, MBA, CRS, GRI,MRP ,

In the world we live in today and the bad actors not getting prosecuted we must stay viligant now more than ever.

Sage advice, Dorie and I agree with the fact that making sure neighbors watch out for one another when we are out of town. Our homes ARE our sanctuaries!

 

Another thing that we do, is because we have pets who have never been boarded, when we leave, we have house sitters who never leave our home while we are gone - and they take great care of our pets too!

Hi Debe Maxwell, CRS ,

My brother and wife have a house sitter for their dog and it's great because their precious fur baby never is boarded and someone is in their house while they are gone!
