Holistic Approach to Animal Care

Ilona and Vicky set up Move Unleashed to focus on pet rehabilitation. As the owners of Noah’s Ark Vet, we believe in a holistic approach to animal care. Our rehabilitation, pain management and holistic treatment services are designed to help your pet recover from injury or surgery, improving their quality of life – just like going to the physiotherapist!

We also go the extra mile to help animals feel less scared and anxious when they visit us. Based in Medowie, we serve the entire Hunter Valley region, including Port Stephens, Newcastle and Maitland.
