About Don
Hi! My name is Don, and I’m a 24-year-old Master’s student at Swinburne University in Melbourne. I recently moved to Hawthorn from Dubai to continue my studies in engineering. While I love my academic journey, I’ve always had a deep passion for animals—especially dogs! Back home, I have two wonderful dogs whom I miss dearly, and being around dogs has always brought me a sense of joy and comfort. That’s why I’m offering my services as a pet sitter and dog walker—to help care for dogs while also getting my daily dose of furry companionship!
I have years of experience caring for dogs of different breeds and sizes, including German Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, and Labradors. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, washing, or simply spending quality time with them, I truly enjoy being around dogs. I understand that every dog has unique needs and personalities, so I always prioritize patience, attention to detail, and creating a safe and comfortable environment for them.
Since my university schedule is quite flexible, I am available at different times of the day to accommodate various pet care needs. My services include dog walking, washing, and house sitting, ensuring that your dog gets the care and attention they deserve. I take my responsibilities seriously and always follow any special instructions you have for your pet’s routine.
I believe dogs deserve not just care, but companionship and attention, and I always strive to give them a positive and enjoyable experience. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, experienced, and passionate pet sitter, I’d love to help! Feel free to reach out—I’d be happy to discuss how I can take care of your furry friend. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup soon! 🐾

Walks typically last 30-45 minutes but can be adjusted based on your pet’s energy level and needs.
I usually take dogs to local parks, pet-friendly areas, or quiet residential streets around Hawthorn.
If your dog has specific walking preferences or habits, I’ll be happy to follow them!

I will stay for 30-60 minutes per visit to feed, play, and care for your pet.
If needed, I can also water plants, bring in mail, and check on home security.

I can stay overnight or for extended hours to keep your pet comfortable at home.
I ensure your pet gets regular walks, meals, playtime, and lots of attention.
