What My Concierge Florida can do for you
Traveling to these destinations requires plenty of busy planning and budgeting in themselves, so once you embark on your journey, you should be leaving all your worries behind you. That’s where we come in. Leaving during hurricane season? Don’t worry! Our attentive team will be your eyes and ears during the time you’re gone, taking any preventative measures to protect against damage and constantly checking on your home before, during, and after the storm. Don’t want your pool to turn green and gross when you leave? Tell us about your specific maintenance needs and we’ll take care of it all for you.
