About Find a Dog Minder

We're passionate dog lovers on a mission to help every Australian dog owner find the perfect place for their furry friend to run, play, and socialise.

Our Story

Find a Dog Minder was born from a simple frustration that every dog owner knows: trying to find a good dog park shouldn't be this hard. As dog owners ourselves, we spent countless hours searching for reliable information about off-leash areas, only to arrive at parks that were closed, lacked basic amenities, or weren't suitable for our dogs.

In 2026, we decided to change that. We created Australia's most comprehensive dog park directory, cataloguing every detail that matters to dog owners: fencing, water stations, shade, off-leash hours, and real community reviews.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple: to connect every Australian dog with the outdoor adventures they deserve. We believe that regular exercise and socialisation are essential for a dog's physical health and mental wellbeing. By making it easier to find suitable dog parks, we're helping create happier, healthier dogs across the nation.
