Battery Tender or other such float charger. Starting the car periodically isn't helpful and probably is counterproductive.

Agreed. Paying someone to start your car. Almost certainly does more harm than good. Not necessary for battery maintenance, and unless the engine comes up to normal operating oil temp, all it will do is facilitate condensation of water in the engine without the time or temps necessary to boil it off. Bad idea.
