General Info
My name is Cori Priebe. I am the owner of 4 Paws Unleashed, Inc. I started in the animal field as a graduated Veterinary Technician with a degree in Veterinary Technology in 2005. With my veterinary technician background and 2 years experience at a local veterinary hospital, I envisioned a place where your pets are treated as one of my own family, I envisioned a place where dogs were excited to go to the front door, instead of pulling in the opposite direction. I opened my first location in North Des Moines, in May of 2007. In December of 2008, I opened my second location in Clive to share the high standards that my facility sat with the west side of Des Moines. In 2011, 4 Paws was fortunate enough to move our North Des Moines location to a much larger and permanent building (located just down the street from the original location) to where it currently stands. In 2012, we were excited to join up with Paws & Effect, a Des Moines non-profit organization that raises and places service dogs for veterans suffering from PTSD and children with Autism. Pictured with me is Miss Bliss, my service-dog-in-training as we showed our support at the Iowa Capital. Not pictured with me is Dawson (Lhasa Bichon), Landon (Labradoodle- North Des Moines house dog), Cody (Flat Coated Retriever- Clive house dog), and Boo (American Pit Bull Terrier). I am proud to be the owner, manager and operator of two facilities that are dedicated to pets and their families. I look forward to meeting you and your four (or two) legged friends!

I've been taking my dog to 4 Paws Unleashed since he was 10 weeks old. He is now 1 1/2 years old, and he still gets really excited whenever he goes for daycare/boarding. As soon as I pick him up, he falls asleep in the car from playing so hard all day. I adore everyone who works there, they are always friendly, and it makes me happy that they know my dog by name. It is also very convenient that they have a groomer available for nail trims that can be done while he's there during the day.

Moving from the country to the city was tough for my puppy Barkley. Luckily we found 4 Paws Unleashed! They provide a great atmosphere to work off some major energy during the day! Barkley loves playing with other dogs all day while I enjoy the personable touch of staff knowing all the dogs by name and treating them as their own. Anyone looking for pet heaven, look no further than 4 Paws Unleashed.

We Love 4 Paws! The staff are very friendly and always greet Rylie by name! We have utilized Doggie Daycare and Boarding. I've been taking Rylie to the north side location for a little over a year now and she loves being able to run and play all day. I never worry about leaving her there because the staff are so in tune with the various needs of each dog. Prices are reasonable and I love the convenience 4 paws offers and won't take my dog anywhere else for daycare or boarding!

We highly recommend 4 Paws! My Rottweiler's love to play and stay there. The staff is great and caring. They have convenient hours and offer bathing/grooming . I love being able to have them bathed when they are being boarded. Saves me time.

We find the facility to be spacious, clean and well kept. I love that they have a kennel large enough to accommodate all 3 of my large dogs, so they don't have to be separated.

My basset hound, Cassie, LOVES going to doggie daycare! It's exactly what she needs to socialize and stay active during the day. The staff at 4 Paws are fantastic- super friendly, and always greeting Cassie by name when we walk in. With the grooming services, I can get her nails trimmed while she's there during the day, which is so convenient! I have also boarded Cassie at 4 Paws, and I feel confident that she is safe and well cared for while in their care. Take your dogs to 4 Paws Unleashed- they will love it!

We take our German Shepherd, Dakota to 4 paws unleashed and she can't wait to get out of the vehicle by the time we get there. Would highly recommend for socialization of a dog.

Overall

I have an extremely hyper Siberian Husky (Maya), and daycare at 4 Paws is my lifesaver. At least once a week, if not more, I drop off my hyper girl in the morning and pick up a very tired, happy girl at the end of the day. She loves this place so much that every morning she is standing at the door "talking" to us - telling us she's ready to go, and once in the car she continues howling and talking the entire ride to 4 Paws. The staff is great and caring and seems to genuinely love what they do and all the dogs they are caring for. I've used 4 Paws for daycare, boarding and grooming. I love that I can watch my pup on my laptop during the day if I choose, but actually, I'm so comfortable leaving her there that I don't worry about her at all while she is there. I highly recommend 4 Paws and oh- they have these great customer appreciation days with a variety of ways to save money on their services.

4 paws unleashed has a great facility with dedicated and compassionate staff members that we have trusted them since June 2008 with our "fur babies". My 3 dogs are regulars there and highly recommend to all pet owners looking for a place that will treat your "fur baby (ies)" as one of their own!

4 Paws Unleashed takes the best care of my dog. He loves going to daycare and playing

with his pals. The staff knows him and warmly greets him each time he visits. 4 Paws is reasonably priced and offers on site services for grooming, training, boarding, etc. My dog is excited every time we pull into the 4 Paws parking lot, and that gives me peace of mind!
