A MARN pet detective is trained in proven search techniques created by Canadian based, Kat Albrecht. Kat is a retired police officer and dog handler, and is an expert in searching for missing persons and missing pets.

Our New Zealand based Pet Detectives help owners by providing advice on what pets are likely to do when they go missing, as well as expertise on how to search for a pet using a variety of investigative methods.

As well as the free advice on this site, we can also offer one on one advice based on how your missing pet will react based on your pets personality. Factors such as your pets indoor/outdoor experience and its knowledge of their local area are factors to be taken into account. This advice is based on historical and statistical research of other pets that have been lost and then found.

We can also offer advice on what to do if you believe your pet has been stolen. In these cases there are additional steps an owner should take, including documenting all steps taken to locate their pet, in case there is a dispute over ownership at a future date.

The most important goal is to get your lost pet home.
