We have known Julia for the past 8 years as a family friend. For the past 2 years, my husband and I have also had the opportunity to work alongside her as our respective veterinary hospitals. We have both found Julia to be a responsible, kind and sociable person with the ability to jump into new situations and to quickly make herself valuable and respected. She has proven her ability to interact with and handle cats and dogs of all sizes. I trust her with our own pets when we are away and do not doubt that she has the skills to do the same for others. I highly recommend Julia Kappauf for this position.

I don’t know anyone who has a love for pets quite like Julia does. She has a natural ability to connect with any dog she meets on the street, as well as every other animal she comes across. I fully put my trust in her any time she has taken care of my three cats and I always know that she will take the extra time to show them care and affection. She has plenty of knowledge and experience from working in a vet office for many years. Your pet will be in the absolute best hands with Julia.

Julia is my friend from college and she’s great with pets, she’s a very kind and compassionate person towards other people but especially animals, I would have no hesitation leaving any of my pets in her hands.
