The Watcher

Ashley Mitek, DVM, MS, Board-Certified Anesthesiologist

Anesthesiologist turned Watcher

I've spent the last 15 years working in some of the world's biggest and best veterinary specialty hospitals. Along the way, I've met incredible people, especially in the great state of Montana.

I have come to love the land and the people who live here. Whether you own a second home, bought land, or are a long-time 5th generation Montanan, we probably have a lot in common -- we love this place.

Meeting people, building relationships, and being outside are some of my favorite things. I'm thankful that this job allows me to do all of that. We're looking forward to working with you!

The Watcher's Helper

Winston

Bird lover and trail running companion. Occasional trash panda and everyday co-pilot. He has proven himself quite useful in the home watch business.

IF there's a carcass on your property, he'll find it! If there are creepy crawly creatures in your home, he'll find it. The nose always knows!

The Why behind Yellowstone Home Watch

How we got started

I fell in love with a septic pumper. Isn't that how every good love story starts? He has pumped septic tanks commercially and residentially in Shields and Paradise Valley for nearly 3 decades.

Through him, I have come to meet some incredible tradesmen. Men and women who are good humans, and also exceptional at their craft.

Every home needs maintenance. Things break and need to be fixed. If you live out of state, it can be challenging to coordinate these things. And even more challenging to have someone with boots on the ground to help streamline it. That's where we come in!

What we believe in

Property is more than just a house or a piece of land. For most of us, it represents a dream of a life we've always wanted. You probably worked incredibly hard for that dream house you built or bought. You're looking forward to making memories there with the people you love.

Our goal is to help you enjoy your home more and stress less about maintenance or the thousands of other issues that come along with home ownership.

We'll make sure all of your home's maintenance needs are completed, the septic tank is pumped, the leaky faucet gets fixed, and your car starts before you get here. That way you can just enjoy the peace and serenity that Montana has to offer when you're here.
