Our Story
Sunset Safety Agency was founded in 2022 on a straightforward premise: private patrol in Southern California had become reactive, transactional, and disconnected from the operational realities of the properties it served.
Boards were paying for visits that may or may not have happened. Property managers were calling generic dispatch lines and getting generic responses. Officers were rotating through properties so quickly that nobody learned anything about the communities they patrolled.
We built Sunset Safety Agency to be the opposite of that.
- Real visits, documented in real time — every patrol is time-stamped, photographed, and visible in the client portal as it happens
- Officers who know your property — same officers, same routes, same familiarity with your residents and staff
- A partnership model, not a vendor model — boards, managers, and institutional contacts work with one point of contact who knows your operation
- Free parking enforcement bundled in — because charging extra for the most-requested service made no sense to us
Three years in, we serve HOAs from Lake Forest to Tustin, property management portfolios from JD Property Management to Sares Regis, institutional clients including Concordia University Irvine, and mobile home parks across Orange County under the KMCMH portfolio.
We're proud of what we've built, and we're still building it.
The story so far
From Explorer post to founder-led agency
Private patrol wasn't a pivot for us — it's where the founder started. The operation grew, but the standard never changed.
1
It starts with an Explorer post
Years before the agency existed, founder Evan Gauvreau got his start in a Sheriff's Explorer program — learning patrol procedure, radio discipline, and community service the department way.
2
2022 — Sunset Safety Agency is founded
Licensed as California Private Patrol Operator #121577 and headquartered in Orange, the agency launches on a simple premise: every patrol visit should be provable.
3
Building the operation
A marked patrol fleet. A 24/7 dispatch desk running 10-8 Systems CAD. Axon Body 4 cameras on every officer. Time-stamped photos and digital activity logs, visible to clients in the portal.

Today — and still building
100+ properties across Orange and Los Angeles County — HOAs, apartment communities, commercial sites, and mobile home parks — with a founder who still answers the phone.

Evan Gauvreau
Founder & President
Evan founded Sunset Safety Agency in 2022 to bring founder-led accountability to private patrol in Orange County — where property managers and boards could reach a decision-maker, not a call center.
He oversees operations, client relationships, and the technology stack that keeps every patrol documented — from 10-8 CAD dispatch to body cameras and client reporting.

Uniformed, body-camera-equipped, and trained to de-escalate first. Every officer holds an active California Guard Card — and every one of them represents your property when they step out of the vehicle.
Three Principles
Every Sunset Safety officer is trained to operate by three commitments — printed on the back of every business card and reinforced in every post-order document.

What "Proactive" Actually Means
Most operators describe themselves as proactive. For us, it is an operational standard — not marketing language.
Proactive means visible
Marked vehicles. Uniformed officers. Patrol routes designed to be seen, not hidden.
Proactive means documented
Every visit time-stamped, photographed, and logged in the client portal. If an incident occurs, the evidence is already there.
Proactive means predictive
Officers note conditions that lead to problems — broken lighting, malfunctioning gates, abandoned vehicles — and report them to property managers before they become incidents.
Proactive means in-relationship
We attend board meetings, meet new property managers in person, and learn the specific dynamics of every community we serve. By the time a problem appears, we already know how you want it handled.
