Our Services

At Shake Your Paws, we specialise in personalised services, focusing on one-to-one walks rather than large group walks. This approach enables us to build strong bonds with your pets and provide them with the attention they deserve. Our services include:

1. Dog Walking Services: We offer flexible dog walking services, from regular walks on a daily basis to occasional walks, based on your needs and preferences. Longer walks help stimulate and exercise your dog, whilst shorter walks can be arranged for older dogs or those who require shorter walks. The more hours we spend with your pet, the more cost-effective our hourly rates become.

• 30-minute dog walking service: This service is designed for dog owners who need their dogs taken for short walks, whilst they are unable to do so due to work or other commitments. This service may benefit dog owners who work half-days or part-time, and owners of older dogs that don't need long walks but still require some exercise and social interaction.
• 60-minute dog walking service: Aimed at dog owners who require their dogs to be taken on lengthy walks, this service prevents boredom and destruction in active dogs while their owners are away for long periods due to work or other commitments.
• Playtime/Garden Let Out: For dogs that need more interaction during the day, our playtime service allows your pet to enjoy playtime with their favourite toys or engage in activities that stimulate their natural instincts, promoting mental stimulation and providing additional social interaction.
