MOUNTAIN HOME PATROL
Trusted Local Care While You're Away
Serving Lake Arrowhead & Surrounding Communities
Your Trusted Neighbor
in Lake Arrowhead
Hi, I’m Rolanda.
I created Mountain Home Patrol to give Lake Arrowhead and the surrounding communities something simple but hard to find these days: a caring, trusted neighbor who keeps an eye on things when you can’t.
After 30 years with the San Diego Police Department, I learned how much peace of mind comes from knowing the right person is paying attention.
These days, I bring that same steady presence in a more personal way through home watch services for second-home owners, full-time residents, seniors, and families who want someone local they can trust.
Whether you’re away for a few days, need someone to check on your home, want an extra set of eyes on things, or just need a little help with the small but important details, I’m here to help.
From home check-ins to pet visits, plant watering, and thoughtful support while you’re away, Mountain Home Patrol is built around care, trust, and peace of mind.
I’m not a big company, and that’s the point. I’m your neighbor. I believe in being reliable, respectful, and noticing what others might miss.
No stress. No corporate security run-around. Just calm, practical help from someone who genuinely cares.
