Pet care experience

Your pet, my responsibility!

Hi, I’m Arica! I’m a caring, dependable animal lover who treats every pet like family. I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and truly couldn’t imagine it any other way. I currently have one cat, three dogs, and a few birds—and yes, they’re absolutely spoiled because they’re family to me. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their daily routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I know every pet has their own personality, and I enjoy taking the time to earn their trust and make them feel at ease. I’ve cared for pets of all ages and personalities, including cats, dogs, birds, and more. My goal is to provide the same love, patience, and attention that I’d want for my own pets. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and in good hands. I’d love the opportunity to become your trusted go-to pet sitter. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets!

House Sitting • Jul 20, 2026

Arica was an incredible dog sitter, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She was so kind, patient, and caring with our dog, who can be a little anxious at times. She kept us updated throughout our trip with pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her communication was excellent, and she was always reliable and thoughtful. It was obvious she genuinely cared about our dog like he was her own. We’re so grateful for everything she did and are already looking forward to having her watch him again in the future. 100% recommend!!

To Whom It May Concern, I am happy to recommend Arica, who has been my regular dog sitter for four years. She is exceptionally reliable, trustworthy, and caring. My dogs adore her, and I have complete confidence in her ability to manage their needs responsibly and attentively. Her professionalism, communication, and genuine love for animals make her stand out. I would recommend her without hesitation for any role requiring responsibility and dedication. Sincerely, Ashlynn I.

I had the pleasure of having Arica Morrison watch my cat, Willow, and she did an absolutely wonderful job. Arica was kind, reliable, and attentive, she made sure Willow was not only well cared for but also felt comfortable and loved while I was away. She followed all the instructions perfectly, kept me updated, and went above and beyond to make sure Willow had playtime, fresh food, and plenty of affection. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my cat was in such good hands. I would highly recommend Arica to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Willow and I are both so grateful for her! Sarah

Schedule

Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life! Caring for my own pets is part of my daily routine, so looking after yours fits in naturally. I have a flexible schedule and plan my day around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they get the attention, exercise, playtime, potty breaks, and love they deserve. Whether your pet enjoys being active or prefers a quiet day full of cuddles, I’m happy to match their routine and keep them comfortable while you’re away.

Happy to care for any age, range, and breed. Disabled fur babies are also not a challenge for me. Experience with blind and deaf animals.
