Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) Jobs in Sarasota, FL — In-Home
Posted August 14, 2026 · PT Near Me · Contract / PRN / Part-time · Pay $60–70/hr
Sarasota's mix of retirees and post-crash patients along US-41 and I-75 makes it a steady market for in-home PT, and PTAs here often build longer-term, lower-intensity caseloads with strong patient adherence.
From a Sarasota home base, our PTAs typically cover Downtown, Gulf Gate, Siesta Key, the Palmer Ranch corridor, Lakewood Ranch, and into Bradenton and Venice when the route fits. The shorter drives and concentrated patient base make this a favorite PTA territory.
