Bravo K9 Tampa

Bravo K9 Tampa is an owner-operated dog boarding and daycare business in Lutz, FL, set on more than five acres with multiple securely fenced play yards. The facility is licensed and insured, and the owner is a retired deputy sheriff who provides overnight supervision on site. Dogs of every size are accepted, from small breeds up to giant ones.

Services and amenities

• Overnight boarding available every night of the week
• Daycare with small, structured play groups
• Individual play sessions at no extra charge
• Baths and nail trims through the on-site dog spa, for existing clients
• 24/7 supervision and acres of fenced outdoor space

What makes it different

Play groups here are kept small and structured rather than large and open, which suits dogs that get overstimulated in a crowd. Dogs that would rather skip the group setting can take a one-on-one play session instead, at no additional cost. The yards leave room for dogs who want to run and quiet corners for dogs who would rather sun themselves.

Because the owner stays on the property overnight, someone is on hand with the dogs around the clock. That tends to matter most to owners heading out of town for several days, or to dogs who take a while to settle somewhere new.
