How about 'podophile'? (Not to be confused with 'p�dophile', of course!) Most such words are made up in this way from the appropriate Greek root words

[magicdice]

"disturbing"?

[Octavius]

Paraphilia is a general term for arousal from a particular object.  Fetishism is a branch of this.  As is Partialism which is a festishistic behaviour characterized by sexual arousal by specific body parts.

I would imagine that foot fetishist, sounds better than a partialismist or a paraphiliac (if those words exist).

A foot fetish is a sexual interest in feet. In other words, feet, toes, and ankles turn you on. This particular preference for feet can vary from person to person. Some people are turned on just by looking at feet.
