Dog walking is definitely a good alternative to dog daycare, especially in this area where there are so few good daycares.
I would definitely hire a dog walker from here vs. taking my dog to someplace like A Dogs Day Out. Almost all daycares have webcams so you can be sure your dog is safe. But A Dogs Day Out does not. Reviews of ADDO mention how dogs have been mauled there, and other reviews are from owners questioning why there are no webcams. Since 2009, owners have been asking ADDO why there are no webcams. Makes me wonder what they are trying to hide?
For the same amount of money, if not less, I'd rather get the personal service from these fine dog walkers (who can also take my dog to the dog park for canine interaction). Plus my dog walker will usually get the mail for me, pick up the paper from my stoop if I forget it, and generally make sure the house is Ok. Take my advice, use this good reliable company instead of a risky daycare where dogs get attacked by other dogs.
I started using Becky's Pet Care for my puppy a few months ago and have been very pleased. The dog walker is very nice and thorough in her job. There is always a detailed note and she has been good about adjusting to my and my puppy's changing schedule and needs. I would certainly recommend Becky's Pet Care to others in need of a dog walker.
I recently moved to Virginia and needed someone to watch my cat while I went back home to visit family. A friend recommended Becky's - he said he had been using their Pet Sitting service for years. I would have never thought to trust a "stranger" to watch my cat (my pride and joy in my life), but my friend's rave reviews of Becky's professional and trusting service led me to give them a call. I was greeted by helpful and kind office staff when I first called to schedule my first kitty sit. This process couldn't have been easier. A pet sitter came to my house for a "meet and greet" with me and my cat "Norman". When the pet sitter arrived to meet us, Norman and I both immediately took a kind liking to Tommie, a friendly and very personable lady with a passion for caring for animals. Norman had a chance to play with Tommie during the initial greet, and spent most of his time playing on his back (a sign of trust displayed by cats). This visit made me exited to leave the care of my cat in trusting hands during my vacation. While I was gone, Tommie came to my house for a 30 minute kitty sit. It was clear from here thorough report card that Tommie and Norman had a great time together. They played fetch (Norman's favorite game), and she did a great job performing the feeding/other usual "cat sitter" duties. I can't wait to go home for Thanksgiving - I already booked with Becky's and requested my usual sitter, Tommie. Thanks, Becky's. They really do offer quality service from a trusted friend.
