Dog Gone Walking & Pet Care
Cooper

Our pup Cooper absolutely loves Brittany! We are set up for 5x a week for 45 minutes. Cooper is young pitty and full of energy! Brittany runs with him and knows how to get out his energy. Brittany is very knowledgeable with dog behaviors, especially pit bulls and we feel very comfortable with her. I look forward to reading her notes when I get home to see how the play date went. Beth the owner is also great to work with and quick to respond. I had a hard time finding a dog walker that would stay for 45 minutes in the Alexandria/Kingstowne area and Beth was very accommodating with our needs.

Phenomenal.  Beth and her team have made the difference for my chocolate lab and me since we moved here.  Beth is obviously a pet-lover, is enthusiastic, and I trust my pup with her exclusively.  She was able to meet my dog and me the day I moved to town and we started daily walks the very next day.  Her flexibility with my changing schedule, her amazing attitude, helpful hints and tips (she gives me great advice and suggestions that I can't get from vets!), and appreciation/love for pets make Dog Gone Walking awesome.  I get pictures via text and e-mail when I'm away or when they're out for daily walks; I even saw the family-like treatment pup got when she was staying with Dog Gone Walking for a few days that made being away so much easier!  My water-loving lab even got to go swimming while I was away!  These gestures make all the difference for someone who's so attached to her dog (me) and to a dog who deserves only the best attention and care (pup).  I can't recommend them enough!

I am so glad that I found Beth!  She takes great care of the pups and is very flexible about arrangments.  I seriously think she's a dog whisperer . . .

I am so impressed. My beloved dog was put in Beth's care less than two weeks after his adoption. Within hours, I was receiving texts and e-mails with photos of him. It made my business trip so much less stressful!

Beth is absolutely fantastic! She's beyond dependable - once she even called from the ER to make sure I was comfortable with somebody helping her get into my house. I couldn't believe she was still going to walk my dog that day let alone be concerned about my comfort with somebody assisting her. She always goes above and beyond like that and my dog absolutely loves her. 
I'm a huge fan and will always be a loyal client of Dog Gone Walking & Pet Care.

If there were 10 stars to give, I'd be giving them all to Dog Gone Walking! In a last minute, holiday weekend "our regular dog sitter canceled for some unknown reason and we already had tickets to fly cross country the next day" emergency, I contacted Beth, on a recommendation, in a panic. In her wonderfully accommodating and professional way, she managed to calm me down, agreed to take Winston for 10 days, and everything worked out perfectly. She came to our house to pick up our pooch, accommodated our hectic schedules, and sent us pictures of him looking right at home on her couch :) while we were on vacation. He had such a good time with Beth and Tave (Beth's personal pet), their other sleepover buddies, bones, toys and long walks, I don't even think he remembered us when we got home! 

It's always somewhat stressful leaving your pet with someone you don't know. I've boarded Winston at several places over the past few years, from one night to two weeks, and have even resorted to flying him to CA with me once or twice because I just couldn't find someone I felt good leaving him with on a regular basis. Beth has been so much more than a dog sitter for us; she's brought that peace of mind that's always been lacking when we've had to leave Winston in a new and unfamiliar place. She treats our pooch like he's her family pet, and us like friends instead of customers. I couldn't be happier, and I'm thrilled to see her business growing and to see how many incredibly happy people she's been able to help!! Honestly, if you're unsure, uneasy or worried about your pet's well being while you're away, there is no more capable, wonderful, loving, pet enthusiast than Beth - she is BY FAR the best!!

My friend recommended Beth to us and we couldn't be happier with her service. Our dog can be difficult and sometimes gets anxiety around strangers but that proved to be no problem for Beth.  Since day one she has used great techniques to help our dog get over his fears and he loves her! What is great about Dog Gone Walking & Pet Care LLC. is that I truly feel that I'm leaving my dog with walkers that care about my animals well-being, I am not just another money paying client, rather my dog gets the personal attention that he needs. You can clearly see the passion Beth has for animal's right when you meet her. She is super reliable and communicates with you about your pet which is really important to us. I would highly recommend using her services, you won't be disappointed.

Even though my little guy can be challenging at times, Beth has always been there to take care of him when we need her the most. She understands his issues and is very accomodating when others have not been. Not only does she love animals, she is very aware of behavoral issues and you can trust her to take the best care possible of your pet. She has dedicated her life to these important family members and it takes a special kind of person to make those sacrifices for their well-being. If you need someone you can rely on then Dog Gone Walking & Pet Care is your go to company. Thanks Beth!!!!!

Murphy
Murphy

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!

Beth has been walking our little beagle for almost 2  years now and we can say- hands down that Beth is the highlight of our little dog's day.  Beth has always been available, flexible, and reasonable.  Beth has not only walked our dog, but watched her over weekends, holidays and even taken her to get her nails trimmed and even got a new leash for her at the pet store!  Talk about service!  Our house underwent some serious renovations where our family moved out and Beth was still willing to work with us in all of the places we ended living for that time.  We highly  recommend Beth and her services.  She truly loves our little beagle and will take care of your furry friends!

Cannot. Go. Wrong.

I'd never used a pet sitter company until I was connected to Beth, Dog Gone Walking's principal. I was always to nervous to leave my pets with "a stranger." My, how my life has changed. 

I have two very needy little cats and I couldn't have found a better fit than this company. Beth came over just to meet well before my planned vacation. I felt right at ease. She's professional, friendly, and goes well beyond what you would expect -- sending you pictures of your pets while you're gone, uploading pictures of them to Facebook, following your care instructions to a T .... and she really did me a personal solid that was well beyond her purview while I was on a lengthy trip, which made me swoon with gratefulness.  

I wouldn't consider anyone else at this point. It just doesn't get better.

I 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.

I have been using Dog Gone Walking & Pet Care LLC's walking services for nearly 2 years. Beth is outstanding with my dog, always professional, and very flexible with my crazy schedule.  She is easy to work with, her prices are competitive and she is very good at keeping me updated with her schedule, if something comes up, or if she thinks something is off with my pooch.  She has also graciously walked other dogs when I've puppy-sat for family.  I have recommended Beth to several friends and colleagues, and they have all raved about similar experiences with her.  You're just not going to find a better dog walker in the area.

I've worked with Beth ( and Dog Gone Walking & Pet Care) for about a year and a half.  Since I help foster for a shelter, I have had a number of dogs in my home during this time and she has been great with each and every one, learning their quirks and any special wants / needs.  She is very conscientious and really great at communication.  When I hired Beth, I was fostering an older dog with some medical issues.  My main priority was having the same walker every day, someone who knew my dog and could help monitor how he was doing.  Beth was absolutely outstanding, keeping an eye on my guy, providing medicine when needed, and was willing to keep me up to date on his status via email.  My own dog is a younger pup who adores her and who has stayed with her for boarding.  He is super social but likes his rest too.  I've tried some "cageless" boarding situations, but have been disappointed.  I am absolutely confident he is in good hands when Beth is watching him.  Basically, she's great and I would recommend her to anyone looking for dog care.

Beth 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! :)

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!

Wonderful service.  Beth is a true animal lover and loves what she does. She is someone I trust completely with our dog, and she is always happy to help when we have needs beyond the standard weekday daytime walk that come up.  I highly recommend her service if you are in need of reliable, trustworthy, and loving dog care.

Beth is one of the most reliable people I have ever met! She takes great care of your pet and treats them as one of her own! It's not just your dog, its your family! Outstanding working experience with her! You think your mailman is tough? In any weather, Beth is there! From Snowmaggedon to heat waves, she has the knowledge and prepared nature to ensure your pets (and her) safety in any situation!

Beth is the consummate dog walking professional. She truly cares about her four legged clients and their people. Beth takes such great care of our Frenchie during her daily walks and we trust her completely when we board Lola with her when we go out of town. I highly recommend Beth's services!

I got my puppy about 2 1/2 months ago and; being a first time pet-owner, had no idea how hard it would be working full time and taking care of a new puppy. I thankfully met Beth while she was out walking some of the other dogs in my apartment building and hired her immediately. She is professional, knowledgeable, trust-worthy, LOVES animals and is extremely responsible. I've gone to her with many new puppy questions and concerns and she always offers excellent advice. She is great with my puppy, Penny, and has been a tremendous help to me! I would highly recommend her for pet care!!

Beth is a purrrrfect pet sitter! I'm a little uptight about who watches my two cats and felt uncomfortable with some of the other pet sitting companies. When I met Beth, I felt right at ease - as did my little furry friends. She cares for them exactly as I would like. She really is the best!

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!

Beth constantly amazes us with her professionalism, expertise, and willingness to go that extra step to make sure that Reagan is well cared for and his needs met.  He's had some problems socializing with our animals, and Beth has been incredibly patient, accomodating, and a great source of information and advice as we've worked through some of his issues.  Some simple techniques that she's shared have made a world of difference!! I would recommend Beth to anyone who's looking for someone to care for their extended family members when you can't be home. We don't even hesitate to leave Reagan with her as we know he'll be well cared for and happy.

I was looking for someone to help me take my dog out when I was away for many hours and was recommended to Dog Gone Walking by a neighbor. I am very selective over who I entrust  with caring for my dog but when I met Beth the first time it was evident that I was leaving my dog in the best care possible! She works as a professional and she is knowledgeable about animals and clearly loves them too. And best of all, my dog LOVED her. She has helped me address some behavior issues with my dog and offered so many suggestions to help improve. She goes above and beyond what is required of her and has made my puppy one happy dog and me one very grateful customer!!!!

It's so tough to trust someone else to care for your beloved pet  but I feel as if I've hit the jackpot with Dog Gone Walking. I have always adopted pets with special needs & Beth just "gets it".  She is accommodating and professional with her human clients while being a warm and comforting presence for her canine & feline clients.  With clear communication between Beth & other Dog Gone walkers, as well as a thorough understanding of each pet's needs, I trust that my dog will be in good hands with Beth or as her company grows, any other walker that Dog Gone brings onboard.

Just LOVE Dog Gone Walking & Pet Care. Beth from the beginning has always been a pleasure to work with and has always been accommodating to my crazy sometimes last minute schedule :). She has a true passion for animals so you know your pet is safe and in good hands. She is great about keeping you up to date on company news and updates as well as always sending me puppy pics to let me know my little girl Buca is okay. Not only does she give your pet some loving and quality time, she is always willing to answer any questions or give her professional advice on what my pet might need. 

If you're looking for a dog walker, look no further! Beth and Dog Gone Walking are the cream of the crop,and at affordable prices...even better :)

Beth is great with my hyper, full of energy Lab mix puppy. I use her walking and boarding services. She's great with my girl. I trust her. When I boarded my puppy with her, she picked Luna up and dropped her at my place. She's excellent!
