1/9/2014 We were very uncertain about what to do with our Chihuahua when we moved to VA. Previously friends and family stepped in to watch him. He is very shy and isn't very friendly towards new people so it's nerve racking to find a place where you feel he will be cared for properly and loved in all of his grouchy Chihuahua glory! Once you get through that part he is a love bug. We went to the local PetsMart and had a bad experience just talking to the people there and knew he couldn't go there. That's when I looked on Yelp and found this place! It had great reviews and I saw that they had experience with Chihuahuas!
It's nice to know my dog would be staying in a home(with lots of space and a big back yard) with experienced people who loved animals! So much better then a cage! I was very nervous when I dropped him off....ok I cried! Do you think he's spoiled???!!!
Beth helped me feel so much better because she took the time to send me photos, tell me how he was doing, and talk with me while he was staying with her. After the first photo I immediately felt at ease and thankful we made the decision to leave our dog here. I really appreciate that Beth takes the time to do this and it really shows that she cares about animals and her job. I feel comforted to know that my dog has a safe place to go the next time his "parents" are away!– Jessica
Dear DGW,
I wanted to send you a brief note to let you know how much I appreciated the recent dog walking services arranged by your organization. Due to a family illness, my sister requested that I keep her dog, Parker, during her recuperation. I brought Parker back to Virginia with me from Connecticut and I knew (due to my work schedule) that I would need some help. From the moment Parker and I met Brittany, I was confident that she loves dogs and that he was in very good hands! I never had to worry about him. Brittany was reliable and always left me a nice note on what they did that day. Brittany even gave me solid advice when I was worried about a potential digestive issue that I had noticed with Parker. She was a joy to work with and Parks was very content too! He is now back with my sister and I wanted to say a huge "thank you" to you and to Brittany for the excellent services you provided to me. Take care.– Kathleen
11/12/2012 I can't say enough positive things about Dog Gone Walking & Pet Care. At first, I was nervous about giving someone access to my apartment. But after meeting Beth and many of her happy clients (seriously--everyone in my building uses her services!), I was put at ease. The first thing I noticed about Beth is how much she genuinely loves pets--in my case, my dog. And the feeling is mutual--Charlie loves Beth back! She's always responsive and flexible. I especially love when she send me a pic of Charlie having a blast at the dog park!
