Hi, I’m Bella!

About Me

Hello, my name is Bella Burdette and I am a certified animal behavioralist and professional dog trainer. I’ve dedicated my entire career to helping dogs and their owners live happier, more connected lives.

With over 6 years of professional training experience and 8 years in the animal care field, I specialize in creating customized, balanced training programs that meet the unique needs of every dog and their family.

From basic obedience, behavior modification, off leash, public socialization, and specialized service dog training, my goal is to strengthen the bond between you and your dog. I’m proud to say I’ve successfully helped countless dogs thrive and I’d love the opportunity to do the same for yours.

How I Got Here

Ever since I was little, animals have been my world. Growing up in SD, I worked with horses, riding, competing, and taking care of them. After graduating high school I decided to pursue animal behavior tech school, finishing with a degree in professional dog training and an animal behavior specialist.

I immediately started my career of dog training in FL where I worked alongside a great mentor. With four years of dog training in FL, I decided to move somewhere more permanent where I could start a business. AZ ended up being the perfect place for me to start my business. My first year of training in AZ I accumulated a total of 90 clients with the partnership of another dog business helping me get my name out there.

What You Can Expect

I believe that every dog is different, which is why I take a personalized approach towards every client I take on. By using a mix of positive and negative reinforcement, but also a very well established relationship and communication between dog, owner, and trainer. I adapt my techniques to fit your dogs personality and learning style, but also what your lifestyles needs as well. My mission is to not only train your dog, but empower you as an owner. to feel comfortable in the way your dog preforms.

Personalized in-home training

Every dog is different. I tailor my approach to match each dog and their owner in the place it matters most - your home.

Results you can see everyday

When looking for a dog trainer, it’s important that the results don’t end after training. With my training and methodology, you will see results that stick no matter the situation or environment.

Ability to bring your dog anywhere

One of the biggest joys of having a dog is being able to bring them with you anywhere you go. Whether it’s hiking, a friends house, the park or a cafe, you won’t have to worry about how your dog behaves so you can both enjoy each others company.
