In one word: ‘Fantastic’. Paula was my very first introduction to ‘Trustedhouse(pet)sitters’ and she gave me confidence that this concept really works. She is a pleasure to deal with and organising for her visit beforehand was easy. Paula is a reliable, conscientious and caring person. My cats can be very demanding indeed and will let me know instantly when something was not to their liking. I came back to a clean, tidy and calm house and the cats were more than ok with the situation (no stress symptoms at all; and that is quite unusual). I am very grateful that she was able to catsit for me and would welcome her back in my home any time. I can definitely wholeheartedly recommend Paula.
Elisa was perfect. I had an emergency come up. She responded to my need for a sitter within hours and was at my home the next morning! The cats loved her, (including the shy one who acted like she had known her for years), my place was left clean and neat and I was given the time and support to handle my situation. She sent pictures and kept me informed along the way. I highly recommend Elisa. She is kind, intelligent, responsible and responsive. I would be completely comfortable with her in my house taking care of my kiddos absolutely anytime.
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?

What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
My puppy had a great time at Doggy Strides! Cayce has a beautiful home and property with special areas for the doggies to play and sleep. She was so sweet and patient with my puppy and sent photos and updates throughout the stay. There were a few other dogs there at the time so my puppy got to make new friends too. I can't recommend it enough!
Cayce and her family are great. I was nervous about having to board our Collie when away. Reading reviews on Doggy Strides I was impressed on the 5 star reviews. I was not let down at all. This isn’t a kennel… oh no, that is a derogatory word for this service! This is a full service family doggie resort with a beautiful property and home. Thank you Cayce for loving on Skye when we’re away and not having to worry for a second that she’s in great hands. PS, thank you for the chamomile and lavender brushing :)
We had an awesome experience with Doggy Strides! We had a last minute trip and needed overnight care for our 5 month old pup at short notice. Doggy Strides was highly recommended and now I know why! Cayce was super sweet and professional. We scheduled a visit to get to know Mila before the trip and discuss details. During our trip, we received periodic updates and pictures which helped us feel more at ease. Mila was well cared for while we were away and as an unexpected bonus, has been behaving better (at least my husband seems to think so 😂). We will definitely be a long term Doggy Strides customer.
I was a little hesitant at first to have to board my seven month old puppy-- she's very attached to me and has anxiety, so I wasn't sure what to expect! But, I'm so glad I found Cayce and Doggy Strides. We did a tour to see the place and have my puppy get introduced. We then did an overnight test and it went great! So great that I had no hesitations about having Cayce watch my pup while I went away on vacation about a month later. I looked forward to Cayce's daily (p)updates with photos to give me peace of mind that my pup is in the best hands while I am away.
We had our one and a half year old Golden Retriever (Harper) stay at Doggy Strides for eight days while we were away on vacation. I truly love my dog with all my entire heart, so finding a great place for her was super important to me. I began researching boarding locations about three months before our trip. I found some local non-crated boarding locations that had good Google reviews in my area; however, they would not accommodate large dogs. I did not want Harper locked up in a crate for most of the day. I was also considering an in-home service, but Harper is active and having someone over to our house a few times a day would not meet her required level of energy. I looked on the Main Line at very expensive boarding locations that had different add-on packages (swimming, doggy day care, daily updates, 15 minute one-on-one time). I did not get the feeling (especially based on the add-on packages) that Harper would truly be loved and cared for. I found Doggy Strides at the recommendation of our dog trainer. Cayce has been amazing to work with. Her home is a loving and active location for Harper. Harper had an amazing time while we were away, and I felt confident she was in great care. She has been sleeping all day today from all her play time at Doggy Strides. I am truly thankful I found Cayce and her family and will use her for future vacations. Her prices are extremely reasonable for the service she provides. You can truly tell she cares about animals. Knowing Harper was in her and her family’s loving care made my vacation all that much better. If you love your dog, consider checking out Doggy Strides. Thanks Doggy Strides for coming into my life at the perfect time!
We had a wonderful experience with Doggy Strides! We were very nervous to leave our dog so soon after we adopted him. Cayce was so sweet, calm, and gentle with our Sammy that she put our worries at ease. She has a beautiful home and property for the dogs to enjoy. We loved getting pictures and updates twice a day. Sammy made some great new fur friends and was treated like part of the family. We will definitely use Doggy Strides again!
My pup had a BLAST at Doggy Strides. Cayce watched my dog while I was away on vacation. I was looking for a place with a home-vibe rather than a kennel. Doggy Strides nailed it! My dog was given LOTS of attention and made new friends. Cayce followed all of my instructions and provided me with daily updates (including pics). Doggy Strides will now be my go-to for when I need someone to watch my dog.
We had the BEST experience leaving our sweet little 8 month old puppy girl Ori with Cayce!! Cayce has a wonderful personality & lovely family. We left Ori for 9 nights…while we went on vacation! We were very much at ease to do it. Reason being…we did a trial. We did (2) 1/2 days & 1 overnight to ease our minds. She had a great time & was so happy!! Ori got to meet other friendly dogs & made human friends too! We knew it would be a great decision to leave Ori with Cayce for 9 nights. Doggy Strides’ environment is VERY clean & welcoming! Cayce is very organized! She fed & administered Ori’s daily requirements with no problems. I portioned off Ori’s food & supplements in baggies to simplify her daily feeding. As you can see Ori is white…we feared that she would be VERY dirty when we returned home. Ori was just as white when we returned home! ♥️ We had NO issues at all…once we were back home! Ori was healthy and was drinking, eating, & pooping just fine. Ori transitioned well back in her own environment with us! Cayce we are so happy we found you!! 🐶💖🐾
Cayce and her team are incredible! Our first time boarding our dog with Doggy Strides it was a last minute request and Cayce went above and beyond to accommodate us. Since then our dog has stayed two additional times and we wouldn't go anywhere else! Cayce and her team truly enjoy and care for the dogs they are sitting. We get daily updates with pictures that put a smile on our face! If you are looking for a new dog sitter, look no further and book with Doggy Strides! :) :)
Doggy Strides is absolutely the best pet sitting service! They’ve been taking care of my dog for over a year now. Cayce, the owner of this business is caring, smart and has a genuine passion for the dog business. She hires only dog sitters who are responsible, devoted and loyal. They let me know daily how my dog is and always include fun pictures of my pup. It’s nice to be able to go to work and not have to worry but instead know that my dog is in capable hands when I can’t be there for him. I was lucky to find Doggy Strides!!
