The Pet Detective follows the story of Tony Jose Alula, a private detective who takes over his father Jose Alula’s failing detective agency. Since the agency mostly receives cases involving missing pets, Tony eventually earns the title “Pet Detective.”
Despite having no interest in detective work, Tony accepts the job to impress his love interest, Kaikeyi’s father, an army veteran. Meanwhile, their former schoolmate Rajath, now an inspector, is also determined to win Kaikeyi over.
Hoping to earn her hand in marriage, Tony longs for a big case while he continues investigating missing pets. However, things take a serious turn when he unexpectedly finds himself pursuing a sinister crime far more grim than anything he has handled before.
The film explores whether Tony is able to use his skills to solve the case and how these events impact his personal life.
