Tina7/12/2014 I have NEVER filled out a Yelp review before, but Beth and Stacey are incredible and Dog Gone Walking is so great that I had to write one for them! I adopted a beagle at the end of March and needed dog walking services and boarding services when I traveled for work. Stacey helped me set up the monthly dog walking services, was always able to accommodate all of my last-minute boarding requests, and helped with anything else I needed.
My dog was always happy with her walks and was always happy when she had to be boarded. There was never a time when I picked up my dog that she wasn't a little upset to be leaving Beth's house. Beth also texts pictures of your dog every day when you have them boarded, so you know your dog is always in good care. As for the walking, the couple times that I took a sick day and was home when the daily dog walker came, Tina was super excited to see them and was always happy with the way she was treated.
Their website is also great because you can schedule things yourself, make requests and add comments, and sign up to receive information about your dog's walks.– Ben
Lola5/7/2015 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.

SundaeBeth is your girl! I liked her as soon as i met her, and so did my dog Sundae! Even though i found her last minute, she still was able to accomodate me, and even came over that same day to meet us. Sundae took to her right away.. and i felt very much at ease! Usually i have the luxury of taking my dog with me when i travel, but it was blessing to find Beth, because i now have a reliable option... You cant go wrong with Dog Gone Walking! :)
