Pet Resort Hospitality Group (PRHG) is excited to announce the opening of Paws ’n’ Rec Sarasota. This resort now offers daycare, boarding, grooming, and training to the greater Sarasota market, marking an important milestone for the brand as it continues to expand its footprint in Florida.
Originally founded in Florida, Paws ‘n’ Rec built its reputation on an energetic culture, a membership-based daycare model, and a strong sense of community. That foundation fueled successful expansion across Tampa Bay and into Arkansas, where the brand has continued to grow and thrive. Now, with the opening of its Sarasota location, Paws ’n’ Rec is bringing that momentum back home.
The Sarasota opening brings Paws ’n’ Rec to five locations in Florida and three in Arkansas, reflecting the brand’s steady and intentional growth across pet forward communities. Each location offers a full suite of services, including boarding, daycare, grooming, and training, designed to support dogs throughout every stage of life.
“Paws ’n’ Rec has always been about creating places where dogs can be dogs and where pet parents feel confident leaving them in our care,” said Paws ‘n’ Rec founder and Pet Resort Hospitality Group COO, Taylor Wallace. “Returning to Florida with a new location in Sarasota is especially meaningful. It is a continuation of the brand’s story and a reflection of how far Paws ’n’ Rec has come.”
Pet parents at Paws ’n’ Rec Sarasota can expect the same experience that has defined the brand across its growing footprint, including structured playgroups, attentive supervision, and a team focused on enrichment, safety, and fun. The Sarasota location is designed to foster socialization, routine, and joy for dogs of all sizes and personalities.
This expansion advances Paws ’n’ Rec’s growth within PRHG’s national portfolio and brings PRHG’s total footprint to 37 locations, serving thousands of pets each day with the support of more than 1,000 pet care professionals. PRHG remains focused on partnering with pet resort brands that prioritize exceptional care, unreasonable hospitality, and team development.
