Tracy Carathanasis
Tracy is the proud owner of Benjamin Biscuit Club, and she loves her business! She earned her Masters Degree in Counseling and worked as a children's counselor and social worker. Tracy has always loved dogs and wanted to pursue a career working with them. In March 2014, she purchased The Dog Dorks, and made it into her own, Benjamin Biscuit Club. Her experience with dogs began as a teenager in Michigan, where she managed a large boarding facility. She has participated in dog training classes, Fly-ball, and Canine Good Citizen with her own dogs. Tracy has 3 kids, 2 dogs, and has fostered hundreds of dogs with FARR (Florida All Retriever Rescue).
Angel
Angel has been around Benjamin Biscuit Club since he was a little boy, because his mom is Krystel! We are lucky he has been officially working with us since 2024 since he was a junior at Alonso High School. Angel has a wonderfully kind and calm energy, that dogs and humans love!
Katrina
Katrina has been our Shift Leader and House Mother since 2013! She stays overnight and weekends and is dedicated to making sure all the dogs (and humans!) are well cared for. She utilizes nursing skills, chef duties, and is always on safety patrol. She is also our webmaster and seamstress, making cute dog beds and covers! Katrina's pride and joy is her boy Scrappy! He is a Yorkipoo, born approximately 2011, and she tells him on a regular basis that he is the "smartest, handsomest, most awesomest boy in 15 galaxies!"
Krystel
Krystel has been a Pack Leader with us since April 2017. Krystel has experience in Pre-School and Childcare, which is valuable knowledge to use with our 4 legged kids! She is an excellent, experienced dog handler, and is also our Artist. Krystel's fur crew includes Storm, Ash, and Blue! Storm is a hound mix born in 2021. She was Tracy's foster puppy, visiting BBC, and Krystel fell in love and adopted her! Ash is a kitty born 2019, and she was part of a litter of kittens discovered by the BBC daycare dogs along our back yard fence! That was quite a day! Blue is a Doberman mix, born approximately 2019, and adopted as a puppy.
Tilda
Tilda has been a Dog Handler with us since 2025, but she first came to BBC 10 years ago with Tracy's daughter to play with the dogs! Tilda graduated from Alonso High School and is currently taking classes at USF. She loves dogs and has a Parson Terrier, Oz, and a hound mix, Taz!
