Unleaxshed Canine Performance

Hey there, I’m Kristian, a NYC-based dog fitness trainer and founder of Unleaxshed, a canine exercise and cardio-based training service helping NYC dogs burn energy the right way. Most dogs don’t just need “a walk” — they need structured movement that challenges their minds and bodies. That’s where we come in. With us your pup doesn’t just stretch their legs — they train like an athlete. Every session blends endurance, agility, and mental stimulation to build confidence, focus, and happiness. Whether it’s a high-energy sprint session, agility drills, or an uptempo group walk with other well-mannered dogs, we customize each program to your dog’s personality, breed, and goals.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for every dog as if they were my own — with structure, attention, and consistency. Whether in my home or a client’s, I focus on creating a safe, calm environment where dogs can relax, exercise, and follow their normal routines. From feeding and hydration to play, training, and cool-down walks, every visit is about keeping your dog comfortable, happy, and cared for like family.

Kristian and Jay went out of their way to walk Bailey when I found myself in a pinch. The communication was great and you can tell they are wonderful with dogs. Will be rebooking!

Schedule

Pet care isn’t just part of my routine — it is my routine. I structure my days around exercise, training sessions, and enrichment for dogs across New York City. Whether it’s early-morning runs, mid-day walks, or evening training sessions, every part of my week is dedicated to helping dogs stay active, happy, and fulfilled.

It’s important for me to know each dog’s personality, energy level, and any specific routines or triggers they have. I like to understand their comfort zones — things like how they react to other dogs, preferred walking pace, favorite rewards, and any medical or behavioral notes. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can tailor our sessions to keep your dog safe, comfortable, and fully engaged.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
