Puberty is started by the Pituitary Gland (part of the Endocrine system) in the brain sending signals to release testosterone in boys and oestrogen & progesterone in girls. This mass release of the hormones is recognised by the body and begins the process of puberty.
Also note that both boys and girls have testosterone and oestrogen, just in different amounts. Boys produce more testosterone and girls produce more oestrogen.
