Fear-Free Certified Boarding Expert

I'm a top-rated Bentonville sitter with 400 + 5 star reviews, 9 years of dog sitting experience, and additional certifications in pet first aid, dog language and behavior, pet nutrition, and fear free dog sitting. I’m an extremely reliable, trustworthy person who enjoys and loves dogs and all animals! Currently I own French bulldogs! With me, you get reliability, tons of experience, and I am a patient person who is great with animals! I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all breeds, personalities, and medical needs. I specialize in home-style boarding where your pup is treated like family—and where safety, comfort, and structure come first. As a dog mom to French Bulldogs and a former owner of two English Bulldogs, I’m especially familiar with the unique needs of flat-faced (brachycephalic) breeds—including temperature sensitivity, breathing precautions, feeding safety, and activity moderation. I also have secure fencing and a dedicated dog run that’s been bulldog-tested and approved! I work from home most of the time and only go into the office two days a week. On those days, I return home at lunch to check on the pups. I’m very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, but I do prefer to set scheduled windows to help things run smoothly. Inside, I use baby gates to allow slow introductions if needed, which helps new dogs feel safe and prevents overwhelming situations. ________________________________________ 🐶 What Makes My Home Unique • Large fenced yard with a bulldog-friendly dog run • Baby gates for safe, slow introductions • Clean, cozy, and structured home environment • Experience with flat-faced breeds and their needs • Safety-first: I verify and track all vaccination records • Crate-free options available if your dog is more comfortable outside a kennel ________________________________________ ✂️ Extra Services- Uptown Dogs LLC • Grooming for boarding clients • Comfortable administering medications and insulin shots for diabetic dogs • I also handmake stylish dog wearables and am a vendor at the Bentonville Farmers Market—maybe you’ve seen me there! ________________________________________ Let’s Connect! Whether your pup needs a safe space while you travel or just loves making new friends, I’d love to be their home away from home. Feel free to reach out with questions or to set up a meet-and-greet! Please try to give me at least one week notice for a meet and greet. I can also do face time.

Christy did a great job with our pups. One requires meds 5 times a day and Christy handled it like a pro. Also sent us pictures daily and a quick status on how they were doing.

Christy took the time to really understand my dog and how she can provide the best care for him. When I picked him up he was extremely happy and Christy had recommendations for me based off her time with him. If we have to go out of town again, I will definitely be calling Christy!

Schedule

I am currently working from home 4 days a week and in the office one day - coming home at lunch on that day. I am very flexible, but always discuss with you what time you need to pick up and drop off. I do require a scheduled time for pick up and drop offs.

Safety, trust & environment

I have 2 bedrooms just for dogs that I use just for them for bedtime, breaks, meal time, or when I am out. I also have 2 hallways with baby gates for time outs or dogs that get tired, older dogs, or for some reason need a break from the pack. Most of the time they have access to the whole house. I have a large fenced back yard as well as an 8 by 8 outdoor steel kennel that's covered - some dogs just like to be in there, but I don't just leave them in there really. I have used it for people that bring me outside only dogs. I also have a separate fenced in dog run in my back yard for extra active dogs.. they love it!

Pets

A typical day

We get up early and let everyone outside to potty, eat breakfast, then play! Some choose to nap. Then usually around lunch we take a break. In the afternoon same thing - play if they want or nap if they want. Everyone eats dinner, plays more and then we go to bed! Usually the dogs play so much that walks are too much but I do walk them if needed.
