Have some one set up a nest wired camera in a different city

I have a home in a different city from where I currently live. I currently have 2 nest thermostats at this location. A friend is going to add 2 nest wired 2nd gen cameras. How does he do this so that it shows up on my google home app?

 don't really want him to have access to my cameras after they are set up. How do I accomplish this?

I suppose one possibility is for you to temporarily add your friend to your Google Nest household and then remove them once the setup is complete. But you'd have to be able to trust them while they are a member of your Google Nest household. (Your friend would need a gmail account.)

Household members "can add new devices, use and change existing device settings, link to other services in certain cases, and add or remove other members, including you."
