Ulrike Heflin-Shakya

Ulrike Heflin-Shakya provides ground animal transport services based in Paris, Arkansas, serving the wider Arkansas River Valley region near Fort Smith. She works with a broad range of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, cattle, sheep, goats, and pigs, making her a flexible option for households and agricultural operations alike.

She holds an active USDA APHIS Class T registration as a registered animal carrier, with the registration active through December 2026.

Her transport work supports everyday needs like moving livestock between farms, relocating pets during a move, or assisting breeders and small producers who need animals brought to new pastures, sales, or veterinary appointments. For rural Arkansas communities where hauling options can be limited, having a dedicated ground transporter familiar with a variety of species offers real practical value. Whether it's a single horse headed to a new barn or a group of goats joining a growing herd, she approaches each trip based on the specific animals and distances involved.
