Murphy11/8/2012 My friend recommended Beth to us and we are so thrilled that we chose Dog Gone Walking to take care of our dog, Murphy. As brand new puppy owners, we have a ton of questions about how best to train him, what to feed him, what toys keep them occupied, etc. Beth and her staff are always responsive and timely in answering our questions. We have someone come in twice a day as part of their puppy package to take care of Murphy. They send us updates every day on how he is doing, which really helps us learn Murphy's habits etc when we aren't around to see them. Having a puppy and a full-time job can be challenging, but with Beth's help it is much easier and we feel at ease that Murphy is getting the care and attention he needs. I highly recommend Dog Gone Walking!

Lukas11/28/2012 We are so happy to have found Dog Gone Walking & Pet Care! Beth has been excellent with our energetic, adolescent German Shepherd rescue. From Day 1, Beth has been reliable, accountable, and caring. She consistently communicates via email, text, and/or handwritten notes in our dog's "journal." She even sends photos of our dog on his walks! Most importantly, every workday we come home to a happy dog--that is priceless!

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.
