Police are reminding home owners to lock their doors after a house in Upper Tantallon was mistakenly cleaned.

The homeowner was contacted by a concerned neighbour after they say they watched two unfamiliar women in the home with a vacuum and a mop.

Halifax District RCMP was contacted by the homeowner and responded to the complaint around 3 p.m. Tuesday.

Police say they have determined the house was left unlocked for a neighbour to walk the owner's dog but instead two woman cleaned the house and left without knowing they had cleaned the wrong address.

Nothing has been reported missing.

Although it was a free cleaning, RCMP ask home owners to keep their houses secure.
