Who we are

My name is Christy and I started The Unleashed Pet in 2012 with the goal of providing my community with superior pet care! We offer the perfect blend of personalized continutity of care you would expect from a single person provider and the availability and technology expected from a large corporate provider.

We are licensed, bonded and insured! As well, we are a proud member of the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters and the National Capitol Association of Pet Sitters Network.

Our staff is chosen from pet passionate applicants and they complete a rigorous hiring process that includes comprehensive vetting with background and DL checks. We require conintuing training throughout their time with us.

This training includes feline and canine handling and body launguage, signs of illness and CPR & First Aid Certification. We require a minimum 1 year commitment and our average hire stays 18 months or more.

While we take the care of your beloved pet and home very seriously, we do take time out to laugh, and lighten up with each other. Below are few photos from the many staff meetings, holiday get togethers and community events we routinely attend.
