16. Matthew O.
About: I’ve taken care of my own pets (cats & dogs) my entire life. I love to play with them and give a good positive energy to help them feel at ease. Changes in schedules can be so unsettling for pets, so I try to make them feel as happy and carefree as possible. I have a history of taking care of pets with all sorts of medical issues, special needs, and dietary restrictions, so I am very comfortable taking care of all of your furry little family member’s needs! I have a full time job that keeps me occupied during the work day, but I am able to go home at lunch. My wife is also often at home and can usually provide care throughout the day. I can fit any animal care needed around that schedule. My weekends are wide open! I have a fenced in yard, and lots of room to play and run at my own home. At client’s homes, pets are at their most comfortable so I try to play with them how they typically like to play with their owners. I try and have high energy and keep them excited so that they can focus on having fun, rather than missing their owner. I’m also very attentive to the details of specific routines and instructions.
17. Wendy W.
“Wendy was awesome! She was punctual and was in touch with me frequently reporting my dog’s actions and responses to her. I felt very confident in her care. I will definitely use her again! Highly recommend.”
18. Abby M.
About: I have worked professionally with animals for over 12 years. I am a vet tech and can provide any type of care from your average house pets to your more exotic household pets such as rodents, reptiles and fish. I come with a plethora of references and would love to be your go to pet sitter while your out of town, working late or your pets desire some extra attention. I am a Tuscaloosa local so I will be available during all holidays, university breaks etc. I do own one dog names Snooki who is turning 10 this year. She is use to new dogs staying at our home because we perviously fostered for local area rescues. Please feel free to send me a message with any questions you may have.
19. Hannah W.
About: I don’t have pets of my own due to my living space, so I love being a dog AUNT! Big or small, old or young, lazy or active, I love playing and snuggling fur babies. I’m working full time, but have flexibility during the day to help look after your loved one. And would love a walking buddy in the mornings or afternoons! Sadly, I can’t keep lovable furred ones in my home at this time, but I’m happy to come to your home to help with care.
20. Carolyn W.
“Carolyn W. has helped with watching/careing for my pet on several occasions. She was diligent in the duties of her job. Included she kept my pet fed and watered, let her out to the bathroom 4 to 5 times daily, played with her with her toys and loved on her. My little dog absolutely adores the attention the attention that Carolyn W. gives her and gets very excited when she knows that Carolyn W. is coming to visit.”
