RV Shepherd

RV Shepherd is a mobile RV inspection business based in Port St. Lucie, Florida. It comes to you, inspecting rigs throughout Port St. Lucie and the surrounding Treasure Coast area, including St. Lucie West, Tradition, Jensen Beach, Palm City, Stuart, and Hutchinson Island.

It runs certified RV inspections built around the problems that cost owners the most down the road: water intrusion, electrical issues, and a hot skin test. Water damage often starts as a small hole that goes unnoticed until the materials around it have already absorbed moisture, and an electrical check looks at outlet polarity and wiring so a traveler does not find out about a frayed wire the hard way. A hot skin test checks whether the exterior skin of the RV is carrying stray voltage, which matters for anyone who touches the rig while it is plugged in.

No inspection price, hourly rate or trip fee is published, so ask about cost and what the inspection covers when you call. Hours are listed as 9 to 5, seven days a week.

David Russell runs RV Shepherd, and reviewers who hired him before buying a used motorhome or travel trailer describe a detailed, documented walkthrough rather than a quick look. Several reviews mention buying sight unseen from out of state and having David inspect the rig in Port St. Lucie or Ft. Pierce on their behalf, which matters most to a buyer who cannot be there in person before money changes hands.

This is a good fit for someone about to buy a used RV on the Treasure Coast who wants a second, trained set of eyes before signing, or an owner who wants a documented check of the electrical and water systems before a long trip.
