(PRESS RELEASE) PARRISH, FL — DOGPerfect, the Sarasota-based pet specialty retailer known for its focus on premium nutrition and whole-dog care, has opened a new location in Parrish. The store is independently owned and operated by Linda and Rob Emery, marking the brand’s continued growth and the next step in its franchise expansion.
DOGPerfect Franchising, the parent company, owns and operates four established locations in University Park, Lakewood Ranch, The Landings of Sarasota, and Southside Village. The Parrish store represents the first locally owned franchise within the system.
The new Parrish location offers DOGPerfect’s curated selection of premium dog food and treats made with responsibly sourced ingredients, enrichment-focused toys, professional grooming services, and self-serve wash stations. The store is designed around how dogs naturally move and experience their environment, creating a calmer and more confident visit for both pets and their people.
“Parrish is a fast-growing community filled with families who truly care about their pets,” said Linda Emery, owner of DOGPerfect Parrish. “I’m excited to bring this level of personalized guidance and premium products to local pet parents and to build strong relationships within the community.”
Founded in Sarasota, DOGPerfect has built its reputation on individualized nutrition support, carefully curated assortments, and knowledgeable team members who help pet parents make informed decisions. The company has received national recognition, including being named America’s Coolest Pet Store by Pets+ Magazine.
With five locations now operating across Florida, DOGPerfect is expanding its footprint nationally through franchising. Company leadership points to refined systems, established supplier partnerships, multiple revenue streams, and sustained consumer demand as key drivers behind the expansion.
