Premium care.
Disciplined growth.
Lasting purpose.
A real-estate-backed investment opportunity in a multi-location pet services platform — built on established cash flow, a five-entity holding structure, and conservative, operator-led execution.
A large, resilient market —
built on recurring demand.
The U.S. pet services industry continues to expand — driven by rising pet ownership and a decisive shift toward premium, full-service care. Demand is recurring, stable, and supported by strong customer retention.
These are the conditions that reward disciplined operators: a market large enough to scale within, and durable enough to plan against.
The Indianapolis-area market is fragmented. Most operators are limited in scope or constrained by franchise systems.
| Operator Type | Limitation |
|---|---|
| Franchise Boarding | Constrained by franchise systems |
| Independent Facilities | Limited scale & consistency |
| Specialized Providers | Narrow service offering |
Few integrated, multi-service platforms operate with consistent standards — precisely the position this platform is built to hold.
Acquire a proven base.
Reposition. Then expand.
Rather than building from scratch, the platform begins with an existing operating business — an integrated pet services platform combining facility operations, transport, and specialized care — and grows from a proven foundation. The result: revenue from day one, and materially reduced execution risk.
Acquire an established facility
Enter through an operating business with existing revenue, an established customer base, and infrastructure already in place — not a concept on paper.
Transition from franchise to independent brand
Reposition the facility as an independent, premium operation — freed from franchise constraints, fees, and rigid operating models.
Optimize operations & expand services
Strengthen margins, raise service standards, and broaden the revenue mix across boarding, daycare, grooming, training, and transport.
Scale through a multi-location model
Extend the proven model to a second location and beyond — compounding value across a coordinated portfolio of assets.
| Location | Role | Function |
|---|---|---|
| Southport | Core Revenue Driver | High-frequency services |
| Gosport | Specialized Operations | Boarding, training & flexibility |
A phased path —
capital aligned to milestones.

Acquisition & Stabilization
Phase I centers on the acquisition and repositioning of an established pet care facility in Southport — the platform's core revenue engine.
Repositioned as Paws & Claws Pet Resort — Southport.
Expansion & Integration
Phase II introduces a second location for specialized services not optimally delivered at the primary facility — complementing and expanding the platform.
Established as Paws & Claws Pet Resort — Gosport.
Two resort assets —
tangible, and revenue-generating.
The platform operates through two coordinated resort locations. Each is a real, real-estate-backed asset within the broader holdings structure — not a projection, but a property.
Southport
The platform's flagship and primary revenue engine. Acquired as an established, operating facility, Southport delivers high-frequency services to a dense metropolitan market — with an existing customer base, infrastructure, and trained staff providing cash flow from day one.
Gosport
The platform's specialized second location, supporting premium boarding and training in a controlled-capacity environment. Gosport integrates directly with transport operations — complementing Southport and expanding the platform's operating flexibility.
Five revenue streams.
One resilient model.
Revenue is generated across multiple complementary service lines — reducing reliance on any single stream and supporting both stability and growth.
Illustrative composition of the platform's revenue model. Proportions are indicative of a diversified mix, not a financial projection.
| Segment | Indicative Rate |
|---|---|
| Overnight Boarding | from $52 / night |
| Daycare | $20–$29 / day |
| Grooming | from $45 |
| Board & Train | $2,400–$4,200 |
| Pet Transport | from $35 |
| Multi-Species Care | from $35 |
Indicative rates illustrate unit economics; pricing varies by location, season, and program.
A conservative,
cash-flow-oriented model.
The financial model emphasizes stability, discipline, and realistic growth assumptions — structured to perform without depending on best-case conditions.
A conservative posture is a deliberate choice. By projecting moderate growth and assuming less-than-full capacity, the model is built to deliver under realistic conditions — with upside, not downside, as the surprise.
$5.0M, deployed in stages —
aligned to execution.
Capital is deployed in stages to align with execution milestones and reduce risk — ensuring each phase is funded against demonstrated progress.
Segments illustrate the phased structure of capital deployment and are indicative of sequence and discipline, not exact allocation.
A coordinated, five-entity
holding structure.
The structure separates real estate, operating businesses, transport, and mission into distinct coordinated entities — clarifying value, isolating risk, and supporting disciplined governance.
Income today.
Asset value over time.
The platform is designed to generate income while building long-term asset value — pairing the cash flow of an operating business with the durability of real-estate-backed holdings.
The investment is not dependent on a single exit. Value can be realized through more than one path — reducing reliance on any one outcome or market window.
Operator-led.
Purpose-built.
The platform is led by a hands-on operator and underpinned by a credentialed, fully insured foundation — with a registered non-profit mission at its core.
“Strong operational discipline, premium standards, and unwavering care for every animal that passes through our doors.”
Jill Murphy founded Rides 4 Paws in 2024 and built its transport and rescue operations from the ground up. Her professional background spans Ice Miller LLP, the Indiana Supreme Court, and Cummins Inc. — bringing institutional discipline, legal rigor, and operational structure to a hands-on care business. After a 2024 collision and rebuild, she returned to the road and the work without pause.
Rides 4 Paws Rescue, Inc.
A registered Indiana non-profit corporation operating within the holding structure. The rescue and transport mission is not an afterthought to the business — it is the origin of it, and a durable source of brand strength, community standing, and stewardship.
It is purpose carried alongside performance: the reason the platform exists, structured so it can endure.
