Tucker4/14/2014 When we got our new puppy, my husband and I were going to try and come home once a day, but of course in the DC area, that can be tricky and we knew we needed help. I was very nervous about having someone we didn't know very well in our apartment and taking care of our puppy, but Dog Gone Walking and Pet Care walkers are wonderful. We met our specific walker before he started. They have a puppy package where they come twice a day which is exactly what we needed and I have total peace of mind while I am at work that our puppy is in wonderful hands with our walker. Every night we get a journal of what happened along with pictures. I am a bit of neurotic dog Mom and they have answered my every need and then some. When our regular walker is out of town, we know beforehand that another walker will be in. I can't say enough good things about our specific dog walker and the other walkers we have had. In fact, I think sometimes our puppy is disappointed if we are off work and his dog walker doesn't come! Thank you to Beth and DGW!

PennyI have been working with Dog Gone Walking for almost two years. Beth has done a great job taking care of my dog and I trust her 100%. I've had to call her a few times last minute and she has happily hopped in and taken care of Penny. She's always professional, her prices are very reasonable and I know that whether she's just walking Penny once a day or taking her while I'm on vacation I can rely on her to take special care of my dog.

Olive4/2/2014 I've used Beth & DGW for about 9 months now. My pup LOVES staying over at Beth's! My dog (Olive) is a rescue, and she absolutely hates cages--so staying at a kennel is generally out when I go on vacation. Olive has a blast at Beth's; she gets to play with other dogs all day and romp around in the large backyard. I also use DGW for dog-walking services. They are very reliable, prompt, and always leave a note after the walk. DGW has been able to accommodate some last minute requests as well--one morning Olive was sick, and Beth responded to my urgent email within the hour and sent someone to check on Olive that day. Could not recommend more highly!
