Your Dog's Home Away from Home

Hi! We’re Julia and Marvens :) We are lifelong dog lovers with more than six years of dog-sitting experience, including through Rover. We know dogs are part of the family, and we will treat your pup with the same love, patience, and care we would want for our own. Julia works from home, so your dog will have plenty of company, attention, and affection throughout the day. We are happy to follow your pup’s usual routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible. Whether they love long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing nearby, we will make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. We also share our home with Billy, our mini dachshund puppy, who has made us appreciate even more how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. We will send plenty of photos and updates, so you can relax knowing your pup is being cared for like part of our family. We would love to meet you and your furry best friend! Please send us a message so we can learn more about your pup and schedule a meet-and-greet.

Julia and Marvens were a great couple showing lots of love to Sophie. They accommodated a last minute request and it worked out so well

Julia and Marvens are so lovely and warm! Our anxious dog settled in quickly with them and they gave him lots of love. Highly recommended!

Fairly certain that Huck, our ~70 lbs one year old lab, loves the two of them/you more than us, his owners! Thanks for taking such good care of him!

They’re such a wonderful couple so my pup got double the love. Quick communication, great pics and videos and I’d definitely book with them again. :)

Marvens is a surgical resident at Christiana Care and Julia works in finance and remote often so would love some pup company while she’s home!

Safety, trust & environment

We love to be active and talk long walks, but always will make a lot of time for cuddles on the couch. Whatever your dog’s preference is we can be as active or chill as they like :)
