Knoxville, TN - PetWellClinic announced the signing of a 23 unit franchise development agreement across Southeast Florida this week, awarding the territory to a seasoned multi-unit franchise operator. PetWellClinic is excited about expanding into Florida with a proven franchise developer and his exceptional operations team.

Dr. Sam Meisler, Founder and CEO of PetWellClinic, said, “We’re very lucky to have brought in such a savvy and experienced multi-unit franchise operator at this stage in our development. I think it’s a testament to the potential we all see for PetWell’s growth throughout the country. We look forward to teaching him everything we can about PetWell’s systems, and I’m equally excited to learn from him. I’m confident it will be a mutually beneficial relationship.”

The first location is targeted in Plantation with goals to be open in the first quarter of 2021.

PetWellClinic is a first of its kind walk-in veterinary clinic, providing excellent preventative, wellness, and sick care for dogs and cats on an on-demand basis. There is no need for an appointment and PetWell’s technology, design, and operational systems provide customers with a modern day experience in an antiquated industry. 

PetWellClinic recently began franchising after the success of its company owned operations in Knoxville, Tennessee. It’s founder and CEO, Dr. Sam Meisler, has practiced veterinary medicine for more than 25 years and worked in just about every type of environment imaginable, from Amish farms to state-of-the-art hospitals. He traces his passion back to his roots, growing up in Africa amongst diverse species of animals, and falling in love with the idea of helping care for them. 

With experience in all different types of animals and veterinary practices, including ownership of his own full-service pet hospitals, Dr. Meisler saw an opportunity to get ahead of the curve in what he sees as the future of the industry. He explains it this way: 

“I’ve spent 10 years building and refining the systems that now power PetWellClinic franchisees. It wasn’t easy to figure out how to manage operations when you don’t know how many customers are going to walk in at any given hour. We didn’t get everything right in the beginning, and in fact, we got a lot wrong. But I could see our society, especially younger generations, moving toward on-demand services, and so we kept working at it until we got it right. We all expect on-demand convenience these days, and now pet owners can expect it at PetWellClinic.” 

He went on to share why he decided to grow PetWellClinic with franchisees, explaining, “I was determined to be the first mover in Knoxville, and I did it successfully. But a couple of years ago, I realized that walk-in veterinary care is still sparse throughout the country, almost non-existent. The first-mover opportunity is still ripe for the taking in every city across the country and the best way to take advantage of that opportunity is to grow with franchisees that have the ability, know-how, and experience to build and scale businesses quickly. Soon we’ll have locations open in Tennessee, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Florida.”
