Witney Carson says she can’t play matchmaker for her Dancing with the Stars partner, Robert Irwin — but has an idea of where he can go to meet a new significant other.

Following Carson’s hilarious TikTok — in which she said she would help Robert, 21, go through his DMs after tons of interested women messaged him about going on a date — the DWTS pro, 31, said Robert received so many messages that she can’t sort through them all herself.

“Girls, I love ya, thank you for the applications through somehow my email and flooding the DMs,” she wrote in an Instagram Stories post on Saturday, Sept. 27.

“If I could line you all up with Robert, I would because you’re all 10/10 perfect cuties,” she continued, before recommending that Robert go on a certain reality TV show to find a new partner. “We are currently dancing our lives away so we are unable to respond. Robert for The Bachelor?! Idk this is too stressful for me to handle lol!”

After yet another impressive showing in the ballroom for week 2 of the ABC competition series on Sept. 23, as he and Carson earned 22/30 points for their tango — Robert shared that he’s eager to find a life partner to experience things with.

“My life is a whirlwind. It’s an adventure. And I would love to be able to share that with someone and to share those little moments,” he told E! News after the episode.

Robert said he’s “still looking for the American girl” who’s gonna steal his heart, and revealed that Carson “has been helping” with the search.

“Well, you have to go through a screening process,” Carson chimed in. “So submit your applications through my DMs, and then I will forward them to [sister] Bindi [Irwin], and then — then we will see about the American tourist.”

After hearing his partner’s high standards for him, Robert quipped, “I’ve got another protective older sister now.”

In true older sister fashion, Carson then teased, “You will be single forever!”

In an interview for his PEOPLE cover story earlier this month, Robert said he hopes to emulate his parents’ relationship.

“I look at my mom, I look at my dad and I’m like, ‘That’s it. That’s who I want to be. That’s a perfect relationship,’ ” he said of mother Terri Irwin and the late Steve Irwin.

“My mom and dad met when she was this American tourist coming over to Australia, and that’s also how my sister met her husband,” he said, referring to Bindi, 27, and her husband, Chandler Powell.

“I’ve been saying, when is that going to happen for me?” he quipped. “I’m still waiting for it. That American tourist is not quite lined up.”

After Robert posed for a racy Bonds Australia underwear ad in April, he joked that there was suddenly an uptick in American tourists visiting the Australia Zoo, where he works as a wildlife conservationist.

“Oh yeah, it was very funny… it ended up creating, well, let’s just say the visitation at the zoo was really good and it was a lot of Americans. It was great,” he told PEOPLE.

When Carson reunited with Robert for the first time in years — after she competed alongside sister Bindi in DWTS‘ 21st season in 2015 — she joked that she watched him grow up.

“I honestly couldn’t stop hugging him,” Carson recalled of their reunion during an episode of Good Morning America. “I was just so excited because of the same thing. He’s just a little kid, and now, like, I’m a mom.”

“I just feel like a sense of responsibility, kind of even though you’re grown,” she said to Robert, before cheekily referencing his underwear campaign. “I’ve seen the underwear ads, so I understand you’re grown!”
