Alarm system for your flip, if you don't live in the area?

Hi everyone,

I just listed my flip, and I bought an alarm system, but the sheriffs office wants 2 referrals for people who can be there within 20 minutes of it being triggered.  I live over an hour away!  How do you handle this situation?  It's an alarm that has a siren for 5 minutes, and notifies the sheriff office, and my cell phone.  And it works when someone is IN the house.  
Thoughts??
