CHANHASSEN, Minn., Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Life Time (NYSE: LTH), the nation’s premier healthy lifestyle brand and one of North America’s largest providers of pickleball, is expanding its strategic alliance with Dynamic Universal Pickleball Rating (DUPR), the world’s most widely adopted pickleball rating system, to deliver an enhanced playing experience for members. Through the Life Time app, members are now able to connect their pickleball DUPR ratings, making it easier to measure progress and find the best competition at their club. Life Time also introduced nationwide DUPR-based programming, including rating-gated leagues, open play and other competitive opportunities to connect players of similar skill levels. The rollout began this summer at select clubs and is now complete across Life Time’s network of pickleball courts nationwide.

DUPR is a rating system from 2.000 to 8.000 that groups players by ability using match results, coach input, and video and artificial intelligence analysis, so games stay balanced and competitive.

Members can link their Life Time member ID to their DUPR account directly in the app, then see their rating alongside the tools they already use to book courts, removing the guesswork from setting up an even game. Clubs can offer DUPR-gated Open Play for members with linked accounts, as well as leveled and all-level Open Play for members without a rating, and Life Time Pickleball Pros remain the primary resource for DUPR questions and guidance. Players can track their progress over time as their rating updates.

DUPR serves as the official rating system of Major League Pickleball (MLP), the Professional Pickleball Association (PPA) and is used by millions of players worldwide.

“As pickleball continues to grow at Life Time, many of our members are seeking out opponents at their skill level for more competitive matches and to grow their game,” said Ryan Brister, Vice President of Racquet Sports at Life Time. “Bringing DUPR into our app does exactly that. It takes the friction out of matchmaking and helps our pickleball communities grow stronger.”

“Life Time has been an incredible partner in growing pickleball, and this integration brings the value of a trusted rating directly into the member experience,” said Tito Machado, CEO of DUPR. “The best pickleball experiences start with finding the right people to play with. Integrating DUPR into the Life Time app removes friction for players and gives members access to the same trusted rating system used across all levels of the sport.”

From apartment searches and office attendance to vacation bookings, pets are increasingly influencing where Americans go and what they spend.

MOORESVILLE, N.C., Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Pets are no longer influencing only household routines. They are shaping major decisions about housing, work, travel and spending, according to PetScreening’s newly released 2026 Pet Influence Report.

The findings show just how central pets have become in Americans’ lives. Nearly all pet owners surveyed (97%) say owning a pet improves their mental health, while 88% say their pet has helped them build friendships or social connections.

That influence begins at home.

Sixty-nine percent of pet-owning renters say pet-related benefits shaped their most recent apartment search. Among renters under 30, the figure reaches 76%.

Renters are also willing to pay for a better experience. Eighty-five percent say they would pay a fee for premium pet amenities such as fenced yards, lost-pet services and pet waste stations. Fifty-eight percent would pay at least $25 more per month.

At the same time, renters want clear expectations. Sixty-nine percent say requiring vaccination records and behavior history is reasonable, while 69% believe tracking pet behavior history is important. Even residents without pets are paying attention: 58% of non-pet owners say they feel more comfortable in communities where all pets are documented.

“Pets are becoming an important part of the customer journey across housing, work and travel,” said John Bradford, CEO of PetScreening. “Businesses have an opportunity to respond with experiences that welcome pets while maintaining the structure and accountability people expect.”

Pets could also influence the return to the office. More than half of pet owners (54%) say they would visit their workplace more often if pets were allowed. Among employees ages 18 to 44, that number climbs to 76%.

Travel decisions are shifting too.

Nearly two-thirds of pet owners (64%) say their pet is likely to shape their travel plans. Pet accommodation challenges have led them to avoid trips, shorten their stays, change transportation or cancel travel altogether.

Those challenges also affect where people book. Fifty-five percent of pet owners have chosen one hotel over another because of their pet, and 48% have selected a vacation rental instead of a hotel. Sixty-seven percent would pay at least $25 more per night for a pet-welcoming vacation rental.

The influence carries directly into consumer spending. Eighty-one percent of pet owners are willing to spend more on products and services that better accommodate their pets, while 51% say businesses that accommodate pets earn greater loyalty.

The takeaway is clear: pet inclusivity increasingly influences where consumers live, work, travel and spend. For businesses, meeting those expectations with welcoming experiences and consistent policies can create meaningful opportunities to build trust and loyalty.

About the Study

PetScreening’s 2026 Pet Influence Study examines the relationship between pet ownership and consumer behavior through surveys conducted in the first and second quarters of 2026. The study includes responses from 6,052 current pet owners, past pet owners, and non-pet owners living in pet-friendly housing communities across the United States. A separate travel-focused survey, conducted by Veridata Insights, gathered responses from 1,000 U.S. pet owners ages 18 and older. The complete report is available here.

Across the long-term rental housing and vacation rental industries, PetScreening standardizes pet-related workflows, helps reduce operational risk and creates better experiences for residents, guests and property teams.
