“We are so thankful we found Juli on Rover. We especially appreciate her daily updates about our pups when we boarded them with her for the first time for 5 days. Lots of outdoor time for them as well as some cozy lounging time indoors. She genuinely learns about their personalities and adjusts to their needs. Thank you Juli for treating our fur babies so kindly. They’ll be back!”
