Hello! My name is Arica. I have been taking care of pets for many years. I love animals, especially dogs. I don’t have any kids and most of my time is spent at home. I do have a job but it is all remote and I can control the days and hours I work. I will treat your fur babies like my own and will make sure your house is looking as good as you left it. If you agree to let me take care of your babies I will do the best in my power to make sure they are safe and comfortable. Message me if you have any questions. Thank you 😊

Safety, trust & environment

I make sure to treat them like family. I take care of the home as well. I would follow all of owners guidelines for walks, crating, and administering medication. Always making sure your pup is safe, having a tight hold onto leashes when walking!

Arika is a professional and wonderful pet sitter. I have a senior dog with several health issues and a cat with a cat personality, and Arika took excellent care of both of them while I was out of town. She sent me plenty of photos and updates and left my apartment very clean. Most importantly, my pets were in caring and very capable hands. I am thankful to have found Arika for pet sitting needs.

Arica has watched our two senior huskies twice now and she is just awesome! Our old boy requires lots of medications and has some special needs and she’s so kind and gentle with him, making sure he gets some walks around the yard. Our old girl is still spunky and is tricky to give a pill, but Arica was quick to understand the best method and had no issues. She sent pictures, updates, and my old fluffs were so relaxed and happy when we came home. She made sure our house was ready for us as well. I recommend Arica to anyone who wants their pups in good hands while away. She’s wonderful.

Arica has great communication and is very responsive. She provided plenty of great pictures of my fur babies. I felt very relaxed while away for the night knowing they were in good hands.

Arica is the best of the best. She is so sweet, leaves the house so clean, and sends the best pictures. Have used her before and would absolutely use her again.
