About Julspops
Walked, Loved & Cared for Because you Care!
My Story
In 1998, I was diagnosed with endometriosis, which meant I would not be able to have children. As you can imagine, this was an incredibly difficult and emotional moment—something every woman dreams of experiencing.
In 1999, I adopted my first dog, a cocker spaniel named Brandi. Brandi brought so much joy and happiness into my life. She showed unconditional love, had a wonderfully funny personality, and quickly became my constant companion.
I truly believe that we are all on this planet for a purpose. For me, that purpose is caring for animals. Perhaps this is why I wasn’t able to have children—so that my life could take a different, yet meaningful path filled with pets.
How Brandi Changed My Life
Brandi taught me the incredible bond between humans and their pets. No matter how stressful my day at work was, coming home to her wagging tail and happy kisses always made everything better. She was smart, loving, and a constant source of joy—my child in every sense I could imagine.
The lessons I learned from Brandi inspired everything that became Julspops. She showed me the pure happiness and unconditional love that pets bring into our lives—and why I wanted to dedicate my life to caring for them.
The Birth of Julspops
Sadly, Brandi passed away in September 2015 at 16½ years old. Over the years, we struggled to find a reliable dog walker, especially since she had Cushing’s Disease and required extra care during the day while we were at work.
In 2016, I officially started my pet business. It was born out of necessity, but it quickly became my passion and calling. I wanted to make sure other pet owners never had to struggle as we did, providing reliable, loving, and professional care for their furry family members.
How the Name “Julspops” Came About
For years, people have called me “Jules.” I wanted to honour Brandi, who inspired this journey, so I combined my name with hers—Julspops. This way, Brandi would always be with me in spirit, guiding me in my work.
Today, I share my life with my rescued dog, Pebbles (rescued from Helping Paws Rescue, Aylmer, Ontario) and my supportive husband Gordon. Together, we make sure that every pet in my care feels loved, safe, and part of our extended family.
