About
Welcome to Shake A Paw Dog Walking! Hi, I’m Karen, owner of Shake A Paw Dog Walking, and caring for animals has been a lifelong passion of mine. My love for dogs began at the age of five with my first furry best friend, a beautiful Golden Retriever named Brandy. Over the past 45 years, I have always shared my home and heart with dogs, and I understand firsthand that pets are family. Today, my own four-legged family includes a playful 3-year-old Goldendoodle and a lovable 10-year-old rescue Dachshund. They bring so much joy to my life and inspire the same level of care and attention I provide to every pet I meet. At Shake A Paw Dog Walking, my goal is simple: to treat your pets with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own. Whether your dog needs a daily walk, companionship while you’re away, or extra attention during a busy week, you can trust that they will be in caring and capable hands. With over 5 years of experience providing pet care services for clients, I take pride in being dependable, professional, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. I also understand how important peace of mind is when you’re away from your furry family members. That’s why I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I look forward to meeting you and your beloved companions and becoming a trusted part of their care routine. Shake A Paw Dog Walking Reliable • Caring • Professional Because every dog deserves a happy walk and a wagging tail.

Karen was amazing from start to finish. One of our dogs is very scared of new people and has hid from past dog walkers, but she was able to get him to go on walks and play. We received pictures and updates daily, which made being away from our dogs a lot easier. I would highly recommend using her. I know I will be in the future!

Karen was professional and communicated well from our initial contact with her. She stayed in touch about her initial visit with Winry. She warmed up to Karen quickly! We’ll definitely use her services again!

I called for a meet and greet. She lives literally right across the way from me. She seemed good for wanting to meet and set something up but when she got to my house all the sudden it was well I’m a realtor and didn’t seem to have time for me at all. I live in a really nice neighborhood and my puppy is an Australian Shepard. Said she would check her schedule never got back. It was strange. Wasn’t sure what happened? I just need some help walking my dog while I’m at work. It’s been hard to find someone for sure! I wish I could have given her 5 stars. Would have loved the help!! Any help at that. If anyone knows anyone. Let me know! Lol!! Thx.

Hi Jaime, Thank you for your review. Unfortunately your work situation with such an uncertain schedule was not a good fit for me which I conveyed at our meeting would be a challenge. I have other clients on set schedules which is my preferred method. In addition, with a 7 month old energetic puppy, my belief is that you need consistency with the same person and someone who is willing and able to help with training. I wish you the best of luck!
