The #1 package protection service for homeowners and apartment residents. Shop on Amazon, Walmart, and Target as usual. When you won't be home during delivery, hire a verified, background-checked Package Sitter to intercept your package after delivery—before thieves can steal it.
We also handle returns. The sitter picks up the return item, scans the QR code, and drops it at a nearby UPS, FedEx, or Amazon return hub. One platform solves both porch piracy and return friction.
