Pet care experience

Trustworthy, Dependable Dog-Lover

I have cared for four dogs over the past 12 years (all rescues). I have a genuine passion for providing the best quality care, and I will treat your dog(s) like they are my own. I have extensive experience caring for dogs with high anxiety levels and/or behavioral issues, along with puppies and senior dogs. I am also highly detail-oriented, organized, and understand the importance of routine and structure in your dog's life. Your instructions, requests, and/or concerns are my top priority.

Three things set Arica apart. 1) Organization. She has a binder for each pet family with everything from favorite toys and treats to feeding schedules and emergency contact info. 2) Patience. I have never heard her even get annoyed with a pet. She is always focused on positive reinforcement. 3) Experience. She has been around animals her entire life, and it shows! I can’t recommend Arica highly enough!

I highly recommend Arica for anyone searching for a pet caregiver. She has taken care of my dog and was kind, responsible and attentive. My dog loves being in Aricas care. Arica cares for three dogs of her own. She adopted a dog that was traumatized and experiencing crippling anxiety. Arica has been loving, understanding, and patient. Her dog has flourished because of her empathy and patience. I completely trust Arica with my dog and have used her services multiple times.

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs (including behavioral). It would also be useful to know if your pet has any allergies and/or health-related issues.
