Work at Home | Husky Expert | PLAY!

With us, you’ll get 2 sitters watching your pups as we are a partner duo! Mik: I've been around dogs all my life, I simply love them and I totally understand that due to reasons like work, travel, etc, we may need someone to take care of our best friends and I'm here to take care of your beloved doggie. I grew up with Siberian Huskies since I was a kid as we all know they are the kind of dogs full of energy and always ready for the next adventure. All dogs are welcome of any age. We have two friendly huskies of my own that help socialize and make the staying fun. They have had many friends over the years and are very okay with other dogs staying with us. Thankfully I work from home so I always keep an eye on the doggies. So there isn’t any unsupervised time. Auggie: I’ve wanted to have dogs all my life and even though I was unable to have one until I was an adult, there is no denying how much I love and care for my furbabies. We don’t have kids so all of our life revolves around our dogs and our little family. We definitely understand how special dogs are to every owner, and we take care of them with the same love and care we do our own. We love watching dogs because of how wonderful and pure they are! We love meeting new friends and seeing them again when they return. I am currently working on my MSE at ASU, and with the pandemic I am nearly always home while I go to class for the time being fully online. That means you will basically have x2 of us watching your pups all the time. We also live 10 minutes away from a huge dog park. We go every day in the morning, and sometimes another time in the afternoon. Having your dog join is completely optional and we have a sizable backyard anyway. In addition, we take loads of walks (usually .5 or 1 miles) especially if your dog is young and full of energy. :)

Mik and Augie were the sweetest and very loving with our dogs. I am forever grateful that they were able to stop by to let our dogs out and love on them a bit when we had a long day of work!

Mik and Auggie were great. They sent photos and kept me up on how Lincoln was doing all week. At the last minute, they were able to keep Lincoln due to an unexpected, 9 hour flight delay. Thank you!!!

These guys are such great animal people. I had another rover sitter fall through and these guys absolutely saved me. They made my dog another member of their pack and took the best care of him. They took him to the dog park, sent me daily updates and made me feel very at ease being 5 states away. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter! Thanks again!

Doggy Day Care • lug 17, 2021

Mik & Augutus are AMAZING!!!! They are not only incredibly kind and clearly love dogs, but they are flexible in their scheduling, respond quickly, and make sure your pup has the BEST time! Their 3 huskies are very friendly and all got along great with my two dogs, a Belgian Malinois puppy and a GSD x Belgian Malinois mix. Their home is spacious and my dogs clearly felt right at home! They go to the park every morning until the dogs are tired out and I can 100% vouch that they can handle rambunctious puppies no problem! They are aware of the dangers of heatstroke and are knowledgable about keeping dogs safe in Arizona. I'll be using them from here on out for all of my dog-sitting! They also sent me tons of pictures and updates throughout the day, which made me smile every time! You can't go wrong with Mik & Augustus watching your baby - highly highly recommend :)

Mik and Auggie took great care of our puppy Aspen while we were away. We loved how responsive they were and how many pictures & videos we got. It was very overwhelming when we first dropped Aspen off since all the dogs came out to meet him all at once, but it got better after that. They were very kind in soothing Aspen when he was having separation anxiety. And they took Aspen to the dog park everyday to get his energy out!

The main things to know is whether or not you want your dog going to the park with us. It’s preferable, but if you feel uncomfortable, I will respect your wishes. It would also be helpful to know how good your pup is good with other dogs, as we have 2 of our own who are very well socialized.
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.
