Your dog’s best friend

Founder of StarDawg Training and 123PetBulls. Every dog has different needs. I am able to specifically tailor the care routine to the needs of each dog. I offer basic walks, leash training and exercise. Your dog will receive my utmost attention and there will not be a moment that goes by where your dog is overlooked. While working with your dog I am 100% connected with your dog's energy and actively learning from the experience. I thoroughly enjoy the company of all canines and look forward to working with your dog. I will give your dog the special attention it needs while you're away. I am available to assist with your pet's needs throughout the week. Contact me to schedule your dog's walk, I am often available at a moment's notice

Unreliable! He cancelled part of booking after scheduled time he was supposed to arrive to feed and let out my dog while I was out of town, almost two hours after scheduled arrival time. We were three hours away and he cancelled due to car trouble. Horrible experience and caused a lot of unnecessary stress!

Dons a lifesaver! New to the neighborhood with a pack of anxious pups and he responded right away to my inquiry, came out to meet them and a visit was set! Being Updated throughout the whole process made me feel at ease while away at work. Will definitely be re-booking and highly recommend.

Don was great! He is such a sweet and patient soul and my Lucille loved spending time with him. I can usually tell if she doesn’t like the care she received but she was as if I hadn’t left. I will definitely keep Don in mind for the next time I’m away.

Don was very professional and friendly. He sent a picture and update via text. Mora, our dog, was happy and exercised when we picked her up.

Awesome sitter. My doggies were well taken care off and updated were given regularly. Thanks a bunch. Will definitely use again.

Don knows dogs like the back of his hand. I have yet to see him fail to befriend or peacefully coexist with a dog. Don has more patience than most when it comes to a rowdy dog and with his vast knowledge in dog training there's no doubt he'd be able to handle any job given to him. He knows each dog is an individual and is careful to remember the special quirks and needs of every dog he becomes familiar with. I speak as an owner of a pack of 4 dogs he has helped me with. Each dog entirely different in character but the same in the comfort and trust they place in him.

I just need to know about your dog’s routines, so I can offer them an experience consistent with their regular routines and habits. It’s always good to know each dog’s individual needs. I have no breed preference, I love all dogs.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
