4/16/2013 Dog Gone Walking is an amazing company that provides very personalized services at affordable prices. You meet your walker before they enter your home, are sent photos of your pet during services and also are guaranteed to be provided top-rate service whether it be grooming, walking, or overnight care. Another great thing about Beth is that if she is unavailable to provide a service or if a request is out of DGW's service area, she willingly refers clients to other pet care businesses (this is very rare in small businesses!) she also is very knowledgeable about dog training and behavior and, if requested, can make suggestions to owners regarding their pet's diet, routine and healthcare needs!
I recommend Dog Gone Walking to anyone with Pet Care needs!– Hannah
Great company!!
I've been using dog gone walking pets since I moved to the DC area in August. I met Beth when I was out walking my dog and she was walking one of her client's dogs. She has been very friendly from the start. She sends me pictures and texts when Winston stays with her, which is so comforting because I hate leaving him in a place he isn't familiar with. But, he seems to love staying with her! She is also very helpful and accommodating to my grad student budget. She always responds to my emails and texts, answering any questions I may have. Additionally, she helped me get my bundle of energy set up with an excellent dog trainer, Colleen. You can tell she loves what she does and is willing to bend over backwards to help her clients in anyway she can. I definitely recommend Beth and her company, Dog Gone Walking Pets, to anyone who wants a knowledgeable, extremely friendly and animal-loving person caring for their pets!!

5/7/2015 DGW is great. We've used their walking and boarding services for the past 4 years and we've honestly had no complaints. The dog walkers are all professionals who love their furry customers and we love that when we board Lola it's at someone's house and not in a kennel. Their prices are quite consistent with, if not cheaper than, other pet care companies. We love receiving our daily pet journal with pics of our dog from our great walker Dave. And we love the regular updates we receive when we board her at Beth or Dave's house.
As any pet owner knows responsiveness is critical when you're dealing with a vendor who is charged with caring for your animal. In four years we've, of course, had questions about various services, logistics surrounding walks and/or boarding, etc. DGW has been responsive and answered all questions with either an email or a phone call within at least an hour of sending a question in. Management has been professional, timely, and accommodating. In the rare cases where a problem or inconvenience was identified for us, DGW has worked with us to find an amenable solution for everyone - and that's the best part - the personal nature of their service.
All in all, DGW is tops in our book and we'd highly recommend them to anyone else.
2/21/2014 Dog Gone Walking is fantastic. We've been using their services for daily walks and boarding of our little French Bulldog for over 2 years now. Beth and her walkers/boarders are professional, friendly, attentive and patient. They offer very personalized services tailored to meet your and your furry child's schedule and needs. I highly recommend them to anyone in Northern Virginia and wouldn't trust the care of our dog to anyone else.
