A paw cleaning apparatus includes a basin for holding a cleaning liquid, the basin having end and side walls extending upwardly from an inclined inner bottom wall. A grate is supported on ledge portions on the side walls above the inner bottom wall and is constructed to support an animal thereon. Spaced apart arms of a support rack are supported on additional ledge portions on the side walls intermediate the grate and inner bottom wall. A brush head is coupled to the support rack and extends transversely between the rack arms, the brush head being selectably positioned longitudinally therealong. Bristles extend upwardly from the brush head and through the grate. A vibration device coupled to the rack causes the rack and brush head to reciprocate when energized. A water pump draws water from the basin and discharges it through the brush head for cleaning the paws of an animal positioned thereon.
