I built my own, and run it from my home DSL connection using a spare CF Pro license 
I'm not using (i'm legal :D).  Before that I used a $30/month hosting connection to 
run it.  Either approach saves a *bundle* over a close-interval commercial service.

The above tag will monitor your site at any interval you specify.  I use every 5 
minutes, and test http (and db), https, smtp, pop and web mail.

This tag will track downtime over time, and generate a pretty nice downtime report.  
Here's an actual one, from back in the bad old days when I was using Interland:

If using a commercial hosting acct, access to cfregistry is helpful so you can get a 
close-interval event scheduled.  When I used a Media 3 host acct they were very nice 
in letting me do that on a cfregistry-enabled box ($29.95/month cf acct), after I 
asked nice and told them exactly what I was up to.
