Dog Walkers in Woodcrest, CA

“Second time using Arica’s services, she was so good when we went on our last trip it was a no brainer. She’s flexible and communicative, and always good with our baby. Takes great pics that eases the pain when we missed our baby. As long as she’s available, she’s who we’d like looking after Echo and Teddy!”

About: I've been a dog sitter since my teens, which has given me a deep understanding of dog care. This long-term experience allows me to connect with dogs of all ages and personalities, ensuring they receive the best care possible while you're away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine, especially now that I'm on a school break. I have ample time throughout the week to dedicate to your pet, ensuring they get all the attention and care they need! When caring for pets at a client's home, where your pet is most comfortable it allows me to fully focus on their needs and stick to their regular routine, ensuring they're happy and stress-free. I make sure to keep their space tidy and provide lots of love and attention to make them feel secure until their owner returns.

About: Having two cats of my own, I know that every cat has a distinct vibe, and earning a pets trust is an art form. I specialize in making sure your pets feel completely safe and stress-free. I offer a level of meticulous care that goes beyond the basics. I’m experienced with the trickier sides of pet care, including keeping feeding areas and litter boxes meticulously clean. You’ll get peace of mind, plenty of photo updates, and the confidence that your fur-babies are in capable, loving hands. Summer pet care is a perfect fit for my schedule! I work for RUSD during the academic year, so I am currently off for the summer and focusing solely on my part-time nursing courses. This gives me excellent daytime and weekday flexibility. Whether that means mid-day drop-ins, walks and/or extra playtime. To give your pets the most comfortable experience possible, I care for them exclusively in your home through dedicated drop-in visits. I find that pets thrive best when they can stick to their own space and routines. You can count on me to be respectful of your property, communicate consistently, and leave your home spotless and you stress-free!

I am strict with what they need and will stick well with the routine any pet owner requires of me for their animals.

“Super “PAWsitive” experience with Marc! I am a Velcro pet parent so leaving my little guy home especially since we spend a lot of time together, is always something that gives me anxiety. Luckily I came into contact with Marc. He came to meet up, we went for a walk and I observed first hand just how caring he is with my baby dog! Kind, professional, capable, friendly and a giant smile. If you’re looking for a fabulous walker/sitter, pet transport or drop in play friend for your fur baby you’d be wise to contact Marc. He is amazing and we are grateful to have this opportunity to work with him.”

About: I love many animals, especially dogs. Growing up I raised many litters of puppies and have always been around dogs. A several years ago my senior dogs passed away. And it took until recently for me to get another dog. Since I’ve taken care of family dogs and realized that this is something I would really like to do with my spare time, and I’d appreciate it if you would let me watch your fur family member. While taking care of your dog I will treat them like them they were my own and make sure they are well-tended. I like to go on runs and hikes so if you have dogs that need that extra exercise I can provide all the exercise they need. Your buddy is my buddy. I am fully insured as a pet sitter and certified in dog and cat CPR and First Aid. *Last Drop-In time is 5pm* Although I work full time my weekends tend to be very free, so I have spare time if you work weekends or get off of work late. As I cannot pet sit at my home, I will be sure to secure all doors and fences at your residence. Please let me know of any specifics for your pet.

About: I have had 20 year experience with dogs, puppies and elderly dogs too. I care about your pets like my own and want them to be happy. I work from home and am able to care for pets throughout the day and night as needed. My day is very flexible and the dogs can come in and out as they please. I have a large fenced yard at my home and prefer to care for your pets at my place. I do prefer crate trained dogs but happy to help train them for you. Puppies are no biggy, been there done that a bunch!
