Meet Kate Pentelow
Welcome to our website Neapolitan Home Watch. I'm Kate and here is a little bit about me.
In short, we love Naples!
We’ve had a family home here since 2014. Our dream came true for Mark and I to marry at the Ritz Carlton in 2015. In July 2022 we finally transitioned here full-time to raise our family. We feel the opportunities in Naples are second to none, plus it’s paradise! Our children are now proud students of St Ann’s and St John Neumann catholic schools. All three have immersed themselves into their new school life and as a family we are enjoying investing our energies into voluntary events within the schools and community.
Prior to Naples and Neapolitan I worked in financial services for 25 years; banking, life insurance and a financial advisor. Most recently I'm on Instagram as the founder of @moneymindsetmother. So many moms do not have the benefit of working with a financial expert yet they do have a desire to learn financial education to create security, freedom and independence. This is an educational entity showing women easy strategies they can implement into their own personal finances. Once they have the basics nailed they can start their financial game-plan to build wealth. Coaching , mentoring , interviewing and podcasting are my fortes, when I have the time!
I also love to workout before the kids go to school (to set me up for the day )!! and as a family we enjoy the Naples water community.
I participate in charity events where I can . Earlier this year I ran a 10k run for The Red Cross Ukraine Crisis Appeal raising $5,058 and prior to this I ran a half-marathon for a local children's hospital which holds a special place in our hearts raising just over $6,000 in 10 days.
Mark and I look forward to serving the residents of Naples with a first class Home Watch Service.
Please feel free to call us! Mark: 239-206-6692 or Kate: 239-206-6183
Meet Mark Pentelow
Mark first visited Naples on a family vacation in 1987. Back then Naples was just a small fishing community with beautiful beaches. Over the years he returned on dozens of occasions witnessing the growth and expansion which has resulted in the town we now recognize, love and enjoy. The beaches are still as beautiful but boy has everything else changed! Marks parents purchased a property in the Kings Lake area of Naples in 2009 and spent 6 months of the year visiting as “snowbirds” to escape the cold U.K winters. It was then that Mark was introduced to the concept of Home Watch as his parents needed someone to check their property on a regular basis when they returned to the U.K. He witnessed first-hand their frustration over many years of trying to put in place a reliable and trustworthy Home Watch. Each season they would be forced to change to someone new but nothing ever really changed. He witnessed the stress and worry this caused, not knowing what state the property would be in upon their return. Even back then Mark was convinced that he could build a professional, high quality and trustworthy Home Watch business if ever the opportunity presented itself.
After purchasing their family home and marrying his beautiful wife Kate at the Ritz Carlton Hotel April 2015, the bond between Naples and the Pentelow Family was sealed. The next natural step was to relocate permanently from the U.K to Naples. Mark, his wife Kate and three children Abbie, Lucia and Max (plus Monty the family dog) are now very much part of the Naples community. They are the proud owners of Neapolitan Home Watch. Their two youngest children attend St Ann Catholic School, whilst their eldest attends St. John Neumann Catholic High School.
Prior to relocating to Naples, Mark had an extremely successful three decade career in Financial Services. He was responsible for managing hundreds of millions of funds under management of behalf of his clients. During these many years he developed a reputation amongst his clients and peer group for honesty, integrity, hard work, excellent client communication and customer service. These values are now integral to Neapolitan Home Watch.
