About Paws-N-Pines Pet Resort
Paws-N-Pines Pet Resort offers dog boarding and dog daycare on private wooded acreage in Little Rock, Arkansas. The resort was built from scratch by Kristie, who lives on the property and personally oversees each guest's stay. Overnight rates run $70 to $93 per night, and the resort is open seven days a week from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
What the resort offers
Boarding centers on the Pawsitive Pathways trail system, a set of wooded paths with scent stations, texture paths, and exploration zones. Every overnight stay includes a daily trail excursion, structured rest cycles, and an enrichment plan built around the dog's breed and temperament.
- Three suite collections: Woodland, Evergreen, and Grand Lodge, the last with private outdoor patios
- K9 Academy daycare with guided excursions and curated social groups
- Grooming, from exit baths to a full spa ritual
- Medication administration for dogs who need it
- Behavioral observation and development tracking through the Academy program
What makes it different
Suites include calming music, aromatherapy, soft lighting, and fear-reducing color palettes. Play groups are matched by temperament and size rather than mixed at random, and rest cycles are built into the day to prevent overstimulation. Dogs with anxiety receive modified plans with more one-on-one time, quieter spaces, gradual introductions, and extra decompression time on the trails. Kristie is Pet-Tech CPR and First Aid certified and an AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator.
Practical details
The property sits at 18939 Westlake Dr, roughly 15 minutes from downtown Little Rock, and serves surrounding towns across Pulaski and Saline counties. Boarding drop-off runs 7:00 to 9:00 AM Monday through Friday and 9:00 to 11:00 AM on weekends, with an evening drop-off window of 4:00 to 6:00 PM for boarding guests. Pickup is between 9:00 and 11:00 AM. A security gate stays locked outside scheduled windows, and the trails and play areas sit inside that secured perimeter. Every dog starts with a Resort Readiness Evaluation before a first stay, and booking is handled by phone at (501) 200-9696.
