I’m currently a part-time student and part time employee at a boarding facility. I go on runs, walks and hikes and would love to bring your pet for a stroll. I am also able to just hang out and spend quality time with your pup or cat if they have separation anxiety.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and pool. If your animal needs to be kenneled, a crate will need to be provided. Three people in total live in my household, so someone will always be present to keep an eye on everything. Feeding will be done separate as a safety precaution and playtimes with my personal dogs will be monitored. I treat every animal as though they are my own; furbabies are exactly as the name suggests- babies!!

Information Belle M. would like to know about your pet

Please alert me to any special or behavioral needs your pet may need. In the circumstance of doggy-daycare, I have 2 male dogs. I will need to have my main male meet your dog before any commitment of dates.

A typical day

I take my dogs to Carter Road hiking trails for walks. Lake Hollingsworth is another favorite of the family. I think teaching dogs new tricks is mentally stimulating and fun. Pup cups are always a must and if your pup is well behaved I’d love to take them on a Home Depot or Lowe’s trip! With cats I usually bring a little flirt toy to play with and of course a little bit of catnip never hurt anyone (right?). I currently don’t offer Boarding!!

I have 2 friendly active dogs of my own as well! I currently work at a dog training/boarding facility so I have experience with all breeds from all types of backgrounds :)

Belle helped us out last minute when our original sitting plans fell through. She updated with photos daily and worked through hesitation with our older dog.

Belle did a wonderful job attending to our 3dogs and 3 cats while we were away for vacation. The house was taken care of as well as the animals.
