Reliable Dog Walker/Sitter

Update: Back in the area , have been traveling some since the passing of my pup Shadow. Please message me with any questions and more information or concerns. Meet & greets are great for both you and your dog to see if the match is perfect. You get peace of mind knowing you have made the right decision. Never had a bad match yet! I have no size discrimination, I come with treats and poop bags (if any medical conditions please let me know), I am able to give medication if needed, I have worked with animals practically my whole life. I am constantly researching new ways to be the best dog walker and pet sitter. I love walking dogs and pet sitting , when I’m not taking care of your pups , I am a LMT and work on weekends and by appointment during the week. I have been fostering and taking care of dogs for about 5 years now. Have done wildlife rehabilitation but dogs have my heart. Please message me if you would like to schedule a meet and greet. I hope to meet you and your pups ! P.S I’m able to take care of bunnies .

House Sitting • mag 07, 2026

We were a little apprehensive about having someone stay at our house at first, it after we did the meet and greet introducing Arica and our pup, we felt more than comfortable! And even with that, she exceeded our expectations with working on training exercises, and left the house cleaner than she found it!

Dog Walking • dic 05, 2020

Arica has been walking my 6 month old puppy for the last week. She is amazing with him!! She is reliable, trustworthy, patient, kind and after having a dog training session with her I can say extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I feel very lucky to have found her, you could not ask for a better person to take care of your pets. Dog Whisperer in the making.. I'd give you an 11 if I could, thank you for taking such good care of him and helping me through those hard first days, he's a better puppy with you in his life. Awesome work Arica!!!!!!!

Boarding • nov 17, 2020

If I could give Arica beyond Five Stars I would. She is amazing!! She is a gentle, kind, and loving person. Finn was obsessed with her from the first minute. We spent a weekend with family and had to leave our baby boy with a pet sitter for the first time. Not only did Arica give him a great home but also all the love and attention he needed. Arica kept us in informed, sent us pictures- she is amazing. I just discovered Rover and will continue to use this service and Arica because of the Trust and Love she offers. Thank You Arica, for taking care of our boy!

No breeds preferred. Any medical conditions, are they aggressive towards other dogs, are they on leash pullers. I can train your dog while on walks! Make it easier for you next time you walk them! Training during walks: $10.00 extra within a few walks you will see a huge difference in your dogs leash pulling. Please let me know if you are interested in adding this on to walls the day before.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
