Safety, trust & environment

I happily provide care whether it’s my home or yours -keeping your pet’s routine, playtime, comfort, and environment as consistent as possible while you’re away. I provide attentive, loving care in a calm home environment where dogs can feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while you’re away. To help keep my home clean and comfortable for everyone, I ask that dogs be house-trained before booking. I completely understand that accidents can happen, especially in new places. Pups still learning potty habits are okay as long as they’re comfortable being crated when unsupervised. I also kindly ask that dogs arrive clean and free of strong odors at drop-off so I can maintain a fresh and comfortable environment for all pets. Meet-and-greets are encouraged for first-time bookings to ensure it’s a great fit for everyone.

We had a wonderful experience and we look forward to rebooking in the future. I have never felt so comfortable and reassure while I was traveling, and someone else was with our fur baby. I will add that he was happy when we got back, but I could tell that he thoroughly enjoyed himself. Thanks again for your services. We look forward to working with you again.

Wonderful service . She made our fur baby feel very much at home and took his separation anxiety away . She was sharing pictures often and she definitely has a great soul and love for pets . Definitely will be booking with her again .

La DAYIJA did not follow the feeding and walking schedule I gave for my pet. She also crated my puppy against my wishes for 8hrs a day. Because of her complaints we had to cut our vacation by 4 days and drive back to Jacksonville to rescue my baby. If you want customer service without an attitude or complications I DO NOT recommend using this sitter. I worried about my Honey from day one and every day I was on our cruise. She likes to say we misled her about our pup being house trained, but she took it upon herself to change her daily schedule and NOT follow our specific instructions. She is house trained for us, but she is also on a routine which I explained to her! She should not have been surprised that she had issues bc she decided to switch up Honey's routine! And even if she was surprised she could have handled the situation better with a better attitude and better customer service! If I were you I'd keep scrolling, her heart isn't in this, just a side hustle as far as I could see. Our fur babies deserve better care than that!

La Dayija was awesome! She was very flexible when we couldn't make it back to the states on the end of Reno's stay. She had no problem changing the booking schedule through Rover to accommodate us for the next day. She kept complimenting Reno on how sweet he was. She found him no trouble at all and loved having him.

Ladayija Nichols stepped up to provide care for our dog under emergency circumstances when an injury occurred while we were out of town and we needed immediate assistance. Ladayija was caring, responsive, attentive, and was willing to even run to the pet store to pick up emergency supplies that we needed (which I of course reimbursed). She immediately came through in our moment of need and I felt right away that I could trust her to provide the special care our dog needed after the injury. She was willing to administer medication and followed up with the vet, removing a bandage when needed and taking pictures of his condition for the vet to see. We are so grateful for how Ladayija came through for us, providing great care for our beloved dog!
