What We Do

At Delightful Dog Minds, our goal is to make life easier for owners while giving their dogs the freedom, enrichment and guidance they need to thrive. We offer a range of services including group walks, dog sitting, training and behaviour modification.

Our structured group walks are designed for busy owners, giving dogs the chance to explore beautiful off leash spaces, socialise appropriately and engage with different forms of enrichment so they return home happy and fulfilled.

We also offer group training classes and in home private sessions, covering everything from general obedience to behaviour modification. We specialise in reactivity and aggression, supporting dogs and owners who need more thoughtful and experienced handling through a force free, trust based approach.

Everything we do is built around helping you and your dog feel safe, confident and understood.

“Rhi truly knows and loves dogs! Our beautiful big lab Farley has been loved and cared for by DDM one day a week for several years - the business is a huge help to our busy family. When Farley started having recall issues, Rhi promptly addressed these with some tailored one-to-one training. We are so thankful to Rhi and her business for making Farley part of the pack!”

“Highly recommend Delightful Dog Minds for dog walking as well as dog sitting. Rhi is fantastic, she takes the dogs on wonderful off lead adventures around Melbourne leaving you with one very happy and sleepy puppy! The picks up and drop off are super smooth and we’re convinced our dog likes Rhi more than us ☺️.”
