Dogs are Don's Best Friends

Pet care experience

Hi, Fur-ends!! (I just came up with that. We'll workshop it.) My name is Don, D.K., Donnie-Doo, Donald Duck, Don the Singing-Cleaning-Dog-Loving Guy! ("Hi, Friend!" also works.) I am the former proud parent of a 120-lb. Pyrenees-Collie named Buddy, whom I have raised since he was two months old. (He lives with my ex… and in my heart.) I love dogs. All dogs. Big dogs. Small dogs. Energetic dogs. Lethargic dogs. Puppy dogs (who doesn't love puppies?!?). Wise dogs ('cause we all need more wisdom). Trained dogs. Not-so-trained dogs. Need to go to the dog park? Got ya covered. Wanna go for a run? Can do. Just cuddle and snuggle and play all day? (That one is a given, isn't it?) For house-sitting stays (you may want to sit down for this), I am also a housekeeper with over ten years of cleaning experience. Didn't have time to clean before your trip or before heading out for the day? I can help with that and keep your precious gift from above safe and cared for at the same time!! Is it me or is this a match made in heaven? One caveat: I am an actor / singer / writer. I tend to "rehearse" (sing and such) all the time. Constantly singing, whistling, or humming. Yeah... I'm that guy. :)

Dogs, cat and even rabbits loved him. Super communicative, adaptable and really awesome to work with. We came home to a spotless house and very happy animals. We can’t recommend highly enough.

D.K. was awesome with our two dogs. He was extremely friendly and helpful with an extra request, and the dogs really love him!

I live in at the Country Club Apartments in SW PDX in a first-floor apartment with a completely fenced-in patio. The street is quiet, clean, and full of fresh trees and gardens. Old Scholls Ferry is nearby for quiet walks, and Denney Park & Nature Trail are within a mile of where I live. So your pup and I can go for as many walkies as the day requires!

Information D.K. M. would like to know about your pet

I don’t have a dog at the moment. One of these days I will have another puppy, but for now I’ll content myself to be Uncle D?N to your precious gifts from above. (Fairly OddParents reference for those of you that speak cartoons.)

A typical day

I love to talk walks on the nature trails in my neighborhood!!! We can walk to Denney park and play fetch until we’re pooped, poop until we’re fetched — stop trying to make fetch happen — and snuggle on the couch to cartoon reruns all afternoon. Fun times, indeed.

I am actor in search of his next role. In the meanwhile, I'm writing the next Great American Play, creating a podcast, and scribbling down words for a movie. In other words, my mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends are currently free for the taking. Yay, unemployment! =)
