Pet Care Market Analysis

The Pet Care Market size is estimated at USD 20.86 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 25.63 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 4.20% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

In recent years, the pet care market has experienced significant growth, driven by evolving consumer preferences, the humanization of pets (treating them like family members), and innovations in pet products and services. The global market is anticipated to continue expanding, particularly in developed economies, but also in emerging markets as pet ownership becomes more common.

A significant driver of the pet care market is the increasing number of pet owners worldwide. More people are adopting pets, driven by factors like companionship, emotional well-being, and social bonding. As pets become integral parts of families, the need for specialized pet care products and services rises. According to the 2024 APPA National Pet Owners Survey as cited in APPA's State of the Industry Report, 82 million U.S. households own a pet. 

Besides, pet humanization, where owners treat pets as family members, influences purchasing decisions for pet care products and services. This trend increases the demand for premium and specialized offerings, including organic pet food, advanced healthcare products, and personalized grooming services. Pet owners demonstrate higher spending on quality-of-life products, such as gourmet foods and custom accessories. The preference for organic and grain-free pet food reflects this shift toward humanized care, while grooming establishments now provide specialized services, including spa treatments, to enhance pet comfort.

Innovations such as pet tracking devices, health monitoring gadgets, and smart pet feeders have emerged in response to growing consumer interest in technology-driven solutions for pet care. Products like GPS collars and automatic pet feeders not only offer convenience but also enhance pet safety and well-being. Brands like PetSafe and Whistle have introduced products that allow pet owners to track their pets’ activity levels, location, and even health statistics via mobile apps.
