Hi, I’m Julie Brooks — founder of Hill Country K9 Club and lifelong dog lover.

In 2009, after a successful career as a mechanical engineer in the semiconductor industry, I followed my heart and stepped into a completely new adventure: creating a safe, joyful, and natural boarding experience for dogs in the

Texas Hill Country.

I’ve always believed dogs deserve more than a cold kennel and a concrete floor. I started this business because I wanted to give dogs a better boarding experience — one filled with sunshine, socialization, and safety.

No rows of cages. No lonely days. Just a relaxed, loving environment where well-socialized dogs can play, rest, and feel like they’re part of a pack.

At Hill Country K9 Club, your pup gets to be a dog — interacting naturally with others, enjoying fresh air and freedom, and going home tired, happy, and stress-free.

With 16 years of experience and over 2,500 dogs served, I’ve developed a deep understanding of dog behavior and pack dynamics.

Our techs lives on-site and we work as small eam to care for the dogs ourselves — which means your pup is never left alone with strangers or shuffled between staff.

This is personal for us. We care for each dog as if they were our own.
