Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
•Safety Trust and Environment For boarding in my home, I really focus on providing supervision at all times. I also will frequently let you know how your dog is doing, to make sure you feel as comfortable as possible being away from your dog, I send a lot of photos as well!😊 I like to let the dogs play with each other but if I notice that they are playing unfairly or that someone is being too rough I have the ability to temporarily separate them with a baby gate. I don’t have a problem with them sleeping on my couch or even in bed with me, I actually really enjoy cuddling with dogs. For potty breaks, depending on their regular schedule I set timers to make sure they go out every few hours. When playing outside, even though my yard is fenced I still like to supervise just in case. For feeding, I always separate dogs from each other just in case they try and eat each others food, and to prevent any squabbles over food. Also for allergy reasons too. Lastly depending on your dogs quirks and specific behaviors, I can add in certain things that will make them feel more at home.

Information Bella C. would like to know about your pet
• Things I would like to know prior to booking -If your dog has a history of aggression towards humans or other dogs then I unfortunately cannot provide any service for you. -If your dog struggles with resource guarding, I can usually work around this with separating your dog from my dog while they eat or play with toys. -I’d like to know what personality type they have, if they are a high energy high drive type of dog or a dog that prefers to cuddle on the couch. Either one is completely okay, it just gives me a heads up on what to expect. -Id also like to know what their favorite activities are, so that I can keep them entertained while you are gone. -Allergies are another big thing that I would need to be aware of. -If they normally sleep in a crate, dog bed, or in bed with you. -Lastly, certain routines they are used to. I like to try to replicate their routines in my home so they feel more comfortable in my home.

Pet care experience
I am full time 24/7 supervising, playing, or cuddling with your dog. I do college from home, I usually only work on my computer for about 2 hours a day and I do it at night when everyone is already asleep. I am extremely dedicated to making your dog feel safe, and have the most fun possible in my big yard! I am very active and enjoy going on walks on my property, preferably with a fur buddy😊. I have one dog of my own who is a 2 year old golden retriever who is so sweet but has an attitude when you don’t give her pets. She does really well with dogs of all ages and sizes, she is especially good with puppies, (she treats them like they are her babies). I have a lot of experience with dogs, and I really focus on making sure that the dogs are being respectful to each other, as it can be stressful for a dog to be in a new space. I also would love to take your naughty puppies!!! I have a lot of experience, specifically german shepherd puppies which are the hardest level of puppy.😂 My house is their home as soon as they walk in my front door, I let them on couches, beds, you name it. I want the dogs to feel comfortable, and if they do that at home they can do it here! I keep my home very clean, between each booking I deep clean my carpets, couch, my bed, and floors also wash all of the dog bedding and blankets. I’ve been helping my best friend train her german shepherd puppy, I’ve taught her; drop it, leave it, heel, to sit and wait for you to open any door and wait for her food. I would say that I have been pretty successful with puppy training for many dogs over the years. If you’d like me to do a training session with your puppy during daycare I would love to!! Senior dogs and dogs with special needs are so very welcome and I would try my absolute best to make them feel loved and comfortable while you are away. I have experienced administering medication into ears, mouths, pills, and even shots (I’ve given humans shots but not dogs yet but I’m sure that I could.) I have a doggy ramp for dogs that have a hard time jumping, and rugs to prevent slipping on hard floors.
Reviews
Our 2nd stay w/ Bella went as smoothly as the first! Our dog clearly had a wonderful time and will miss running around her big yard!
Bella took great care of Percy. She is very communicative and sent us regular updates and pictures. It was clear that he got lots of love, attention and exercise throughout his stay. We would be happy to book with her again!
Bella was great! She watched our pup and updated us frequently about everything.
Bella was super attentive and caring with our anxious small dog Violet. She took extra time to get Violet to warm up to her and asked good questions. She gave regular updates, which made us not have to worry so much while traveling knowing Violet was with someone we trust. Totally would book again!
