Dog Sitters in Balcones Heights, TX

Nancy

Nancy had a great connection with Franny and Ziggy and is clearly a true animal lover. She was diligent in sending me morning and evening pics, as requested, and kept me informed about my kitties' well-being. The house was clean and just as I left it on my return, with washed linens and towels. Most significantly, my fur-babies were happy, secure and well-fed. I'd have no problem recommending Nancy as your next zeewoi.

Daniel & Diana

Daniel and Diana are such wonderful people. This sit unfolded perfectly! They flew in from TX to my home in FL the same day I left on vacation. Then 2 weeks later, they flew out right before I arrived so sadly we didn’t get to see each other in person. But the sit was flawless. No problems, lots of updates. I arrived home to a clean and tidy house with clean sheets and towels, a snack and a gift! Plus, most importantly, a happy cat. Ellie’s behavior lets me know when all has gone well with sitters; she was as happy and content as could be when I got home. This is the 3rd sit with Daniel and Diana, and I hope I’m lucky enough to have them sit with Ellie again in the future. Thank you both!

Joseph

Joseph took wonderful care of our cats. He saved us as we needed a sitter last minute. He was responsive and the cats were happy. Would not hesitate to have him pet sit again!

Barbara

Barbara came in and it was like she had known our pups all her life. They took to her and she to them. She did a great job with my two fur girls, Lambert and Olive. Olive is a little fussy with food and afraid of thunder. Barbara even let Olive cuddle in bed with her when the storms came. She kept us up to date on issues and anything unusual with the fur girls. She took great care of the house and the plants. Washed the linens and cleaned the house before she left. I will definitely ask her to come care for my two pups again. She did a great job and we felt at ease knowing the dogs were being well cared for. Barbara has a great personality and loves animals. Highly recommend.

Melinda

Melinda did such a fantastic job watching our home and pets! She is very kind, and you can tell that she truly loves animals and gives them all of the love and attention that they need! She sent us pictures and videos of the pets daily and also went over and beyond to clean our home before she left! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter and we would gladly have her again!

Jo

Jo was amazing! Communication was good and fast, cats were very happy (got some amazing pictures), apartment was very clean, everything was perfect! Thanks very much for everything!

Kobe

Kobe and Cecily were tidy, communicative, and very respectful housesitters. Thanks you two!

Kate

Kate was amazing! She hit it off with the dogs as soon as she met them. She stayed with us the night before we left which worked out great so she could familiarize herself with dogs and our place. She took notes for their care and schedule and even had to give Gracie ear drops everyday. There were daily updates with pictures and the dogs seemed very pampered. When we returned..sheets were cleaned and changed and the house was spotless! We would recommend her for any future pet sit.

Michael

Michael was an excellent sitter. He was a great communicator before, during, and after the sit. He was very capable with the animals and the house, and has extensive experience traveling, with animal care, speaking Spanish, etc. Your pets will be in great hands with him. Thank you, Michael! You're welcome back any time.

ReyArmand

So great of a sitter! Very easy to reach out to and everything was spot less. Couldn’t recommend more

Alyssa & Enzo

Loved having Alyssa and Enzo stay with Nafa! They were great with her and took such great care of my place. I would host them again anytime.

Dianna

Dianna was a lifesaver for us and our four dogs! She took such good care of the dogs and our home while we were gone. We came back to a spotless house. The dogs were so sad Dianna was gone they kept going to the guest bedroom to look for her. This was the first trip we have gone on where we have not worried about the dogs. Thank you so much Dianna, you were the absolute best!

Donna

We were so glad when Jackie & Brian agreed to come back & look after the boys for a week over Christmas. Cookie & Cracker were sooooo pleased to see them & Keith & I were delighted to see them again too.

Again they did a wonderful job of taking care of the boys, the house & the garden birds. The fish don't really need much looking after in the winter which is good.
The weather was atrocious while we were away & it just rained all the time. This didn't stop Jackie & Brian though - they were still completely dedicated to looking after Cookie & Cracker. They always like to make sure that the dogs have a good run round off the leads which meant going through the fields which were very muddy. As a result the dedicated team washed Cookie & Cracker every single day - just unbelievable!!
To make matters worse their lives were made even harder because our outside spray tap, for washing the dogs, had suddenly dropped off in the icy weather a couple of days before they arrived but that didn't stop Jackie & Brian.
As before everything was absolutely ship shape when we got home, the boys were all groomed, the sheets & towels had all been washed & dried, the many bird feeders were full & not only that but Brian had fixed the hinge on one of our cupboards which was also a nice surprise.
We were completely relaxed on holiday knowing that Jackie & Brian were looking after everything at home. We like to think that they are not only house sitters now but friends too & we all look forward to seeing them again very soon.
