About Ultimutt Dog Care
Ultimutt Dog Care is a boarding, daycare, and grooming facility on South 73rd Place, offering dog boarding in Fort Smith, AR every day of the year. The business opened on August 17, 2009 to serve dog owners in the River Valley. Overnight guests stay in a climate-controlled building and play in six outdoor AstroTurf yards.
Services
- Overnight boarding 365 days a year at $42 per night, with 10% off stays of 10 nights or more
- Daycare at $20 per day, $19 per day on a 10-day card, or $14 per half day on a half-day card
- Daycare included with boarding Monday through Thursday
- Full-service grooming: haircuts, baths priced by dog size, de-shedding, nail files, and gland service

What sets it apart
Boarders get staff attention and social time with other dogs, including on weekends. Dogs staying Monday through Thursday get daycare with their boarding, so they play during the day and sleep at night. Any boarder can add a bath or groom before going home, though extra services may cost more. House food runs $6 a night for two feedings, and owners who bring their own food pay nothing extra.
Hours, check-in, and booking
The facility is open 7:00 AM to 6:30 PM Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM Saturday, and 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM Sunday. Boarding dogs must check in by 1:00 PM on weekdays. A $30 fee applies after that, and dogs are not accepted for boarding after 3:00 PM. Every dog needs current vaccinations and a pre-entry demeanor test before a first stay. Booking is handled online, and the facility can be reached at 479-242-1186 or info@ultimuttdogcare.com.
