Who has that kind of access to your car? Unless its shared.

Battery tender would seem the best solution for now, you will more than likely need it again, seeing as you store it in the winter

Take your battery out and get it charged/load tested. Install new or freshly charged battery and have fun!

I would pull it and have it charged and load tested if I were you. Take it to vato zone or any other parts house and they will do it for free. Better safe than sorry..
