I was wondering if someone knows if there is a foot/feet symbol available in any of latex packages that I could use in my text? I would appreciate any hint.

I do really mean a foot/feet icon as in the picture below.

Welcome to the TikZ section of TeX.SE!

documentclass[tikz,border=3.14mm]standalone
usetikzlibrarydecorations.footprints
begindocument
begintikzpicture[decoration=footprints,foot length=20pt] 
draw [decorate] (0,0) -- (0,1.5);
endtikzpicture
enddocument

ADDENDUM: A version for tikzlings. ;-)

documentclass[tikz,border=3.14mm]standalone
usetikzlibrarydecorations.footprints
begindocument
begintikzpicture
foreach X [count=Y] in human,gnome,bird,felis silvestris
beginscope[xshift=2.25*Y*1cm,decoration=footprints,foot length=20pt,foot of=X] 
draw [decorate] (0,0) -- (0,1.3);
node[font=sffamily] at (0,1.5) X;
endscope
endtikzpicture
enddocument

2nd ADDENDUM: How to create your custom footprints? I assume you have some black/white picture of a left foot, which you can legally use for that.

1. Convert this picture to the pnm format. For instance, on Linux/Mac
   OS you can use pngtopnm pic.png >pic.pnm.


2. Then use (e.g.) potrace to make it a vector image, potrace pic.pnm.


3. You can open that with inkscape and save it as tex, which
   yields a document in the pstricks format. Remove the preamble and end.


4. Next you only need to do a regex search and replace that convers
   converts curveto to pgfcurveto, similarly for lineto and
   moveto. And a coordinate (x,y) needs to become
   pgfqpointxptypt (the outer braces are important).


5. Then get rid of all newrgbcolor, pscustom and newpath
   statements and extra braces, but end all paths with pgfpathclose.

Finally wrap this into

makeatletter
defpgf@lib@foot@of@critter{
 % Coordinates extracted from 
 % license... Unknown author.
 % 
 % Flip and rotate
 pgftransformcm0-110pgfqpoint0pt0.8pt
 pgftransformscale0.005 

 <result of your conversion>

makeatother

Of course, you may have to adjust the transformations, e.g. by dialing a different scale factor in pgftransformscale0.005.
You can then access these foot prints by saying foot of=critter. I will be happy to supplement this by an explicit example if someone points me to an image of a foot print that is free to use.

A version for when it's cold in the winter and one needs shoes (a problem unknown to marmots, because they hibernate):
