A Keys Doggie Day Camp!

Pet care experience

I manage a doggie day camp, boarding & pet sitting business, BTA Big Dogs -- named for our "Behind The Airport" neighborhood. We've rescued cats, Labs, bulldogs and mutts for 25 years and fostered dozens of large-breed dogs as respite from crowded animal shelters or hospice comfort. Former Florida Keys SPCA board member. Active foster for FKSPCA and MarrVelous Pet Rescue. Insured through Pet Sitters Associates. We have three Lab mixes of our own, all rescues, and they are LOVING the socialization of new day campers and four-legged friendships we've already established. We offer a large, safely fenced yard with ample room for exercise and play with other dogs, toys, doggie pools, healthy treats and hydration. If kennels are needed, we can provide, as well as a detached den that serves as a comfy, "private" slumber room with separate entrance/exit. Half day (up to 4 hours) and full day (up to 8 hours) day camp.

Julie was wonderful and gave me so much piece of mind. Riley loved her and we are so grateful to have someone we could trust to check on our girl.

Julie did an amazing job with Kona!!! Allowed us to take a trip to dry Tortugas and went the extra mile when we needed it.
