About us

Let's Shake Paws

Dogs have always been the center of our world. My Husband Greg and Myself (Krista) have 4 dogs of our own. We devote all of our free time providing enrichment, training, and affection for them. We originally moved to the farm to provide an enriching lifestyle for our dogs and quickly realized that more pups than just our own craved the adventure of farm life. Also included on our farm in Olympia is alpacas, chickens, and sheep! Animals will continue to be the heart of our family.

We are so excited to be able to offer professional, positive reinforcement only, and personalized dog-adventure services to pet owners in the Olympia, Lacey, and Tumwater area! There's truly nothing like experiencing the outdoors in the Pacific Northwest while also enriching the lives of animals, and we're grateful to share it with your dog.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: We are currently booked to capacity, but if you'd like to learn about our waitlist/standby list, please feel free to
