Meet the
Pack
We are Juliana and Alex the founders of Dirt Road Dogs!
We have spent the last 9 years traveling the country with our three dogs Sadie, Willow and Raven, working in the rescue field as Foster Coordinators for the Lawton Humane Society and generally living our life wholly centered on making amazing memories with our dogs.
After graduating from West Point Military Academy Alex went on to work in the Army, rising to level of Captain before medically retiring. Today if Alex isn’t busy building custom campervans and tiny homes at our sister company Dirt Road Campers he is managing the property for the dogs, maintaining the facility and coming up with creative dog friendly improvements to bring to camp.
If Alex is the brain of the business, Juliana is the heart. Juliana graduated from Seton Hall University with a Bachelors in Nursing. She worked as an Oncology nurse before transitioning into travel nursing. After working as a travel nurse for years and becoming burned out during the pandemic she knew it was time for a change. Ready to swap out her stethoscope for a leash she voiced her vision for a nature driven boarding and daycare facility to Alex in the Spring of 2022.
After years of working with professional trainers, boarding dogs on the side, attending workshops and seminars on dog behavior her passion for dogs hadn’t dimmed. Her dream of bringing a multi-acre boarding facility that allowed dogs to play, run, dig and swim like their canine instincts crave is starting to become a reality!
