Inclusive Dog Boarding in Mt. Airy

Unleashing Fun and Comfort for Your Pup

At Mariah-Belle Manor, your pup will enjoy playtime with our staff in our fenced-in play yard to stretch their legs and burn off some energy. We understand that leaving your dog behind can be a tough decision, so we’ve created a warm, safe, and engaging environment to ensure they feel right at home while you’re away. Our dedicated team is committed to providing personalized care and attention, offering a range of activities and amenities to keep your pet entertained and comfortable.

Boarding Basics

A typical day at Mariah-Belle starts around 7:30am with a morning Biobreak (bathroom and exercise time outside) followed by breakfast. Snacks, exercise time, and Biobreaks are in the late morning/early afternoon. Evening Biobreak and supper starts between 5-6pm. The day ends with bed check anytime after 7pm. Intake and Output charts are maintained for each guest as a method to monitor changes in routines.

We offer a variety of kennel styles. The indoor section of the kennel has a size-appropriate canvas hammock-style or formed plastic bed with polar fleece bedding. The outdoor portion of the kennels are covered to provide protection from sun, rain, and snow. All indoor kennel areas are climate-controlled.

Exercise & Play

We offer indoor and outdoor play/exercise time. Our indoor “Play Room” is a large open area for play. The outside play yard is a fenced quarter acre.  In addition to the indoor/outdoor play areas, we are able to take guests on hikes through our wooded trails to the creek and pastures. Several of our anxious guests have been able to settle in after a long walk. Day Camp and enrichment activities are also available.

Mealtimes

Mealtimes are twice daily (unless otherwise requested), once in the morning and once in the evening. We recommend bringing your pet’s favorite food. Provided house-foods are preservative and wheat-free dry kibble and treats. We can accommodate most special diets, the exception being a raw meat diet. Special treats are offered to boarding guests with the owner’s written permission.

Medications

Medications

Medications can be administered to boarding guests during their visit. We ask that the pet owner label all medications with the pet’s name, owner’s last name, name of medication, dosage, and the storage condition. Written instructions and owners signature will be requested at drop-off. Advanced medical care and seasonal routines (heat) may incur additional fees.
