Time to set up the iOS Homey app on my wife’s phone. 1. Should she create her own homey account? 2. How should I set up people like a pet sitter or a maid service? ---

> [@Chuck](#): > > - Should she create her own homey account? She needs to create her own Homey account and you can invite her via More-\>Family and guests. To enable presence detection, she needs to enable it via More-\>Account “Use Home/Away detection”. > [@Chuck](#): > > 1. How should I set up people like a pet sitter or a maid service? You can set them up as a guest account. When you create the invite, select “Guest”. This means that they won’t be able to edit anything. You can also disable guest account from a Flow (f.e. if you only want them to be able to access Homey during specific time periods). ---
