Hire a Temporary Security Guard

There is no minimum. You can book a single shift as short as a few hours, a one-day event, or coverage for up to 30 days — whatever your situation requires.

Yes. Same-day deployment is available in most markets. Because Calvis pulls from a multi-agency network in each city, we can usually have a licensed guard on-site within hours of your booking.

Yes. Every guard we deploy is fully licensed in the state where the shift takes place, background-checked, and insured. Temporary doesn't mean lower standards — it just means a shorter booking.

Traditional contracts lock you into months or years of coverage with one agency. Calvis lets you book shift by shift through a network of vetted agencies, with no long-term commitment and no upfront payment. You can switch to a recurring plan later if your needs grow.

Pricing is transparent and quoted per shift. Rates depend on location, guard type (armed vs unarmed), time of day, and duration. You see the full rate before you book — no hidden fees or surprise invoices.

Yes. You can extend an active shift directly from the Calvis dashboard, subject to guard availability. Most extensions are confirmed in minutes so coverage continues without a gap.
