The digital pet care products and services market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size for digital pet care products and services has seen substantial growth in the past few years. It is projected to escalate from $96.52 billion in 2024 to $105.67 billion in 2025, portraying a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.5%. Factors contributing to this notable growth during the historic period include the humanization of pets, heightened knowledge about pet health, convenience and easy access, pet insurance provisions and wellness programs, and an increase in pet ownership.
The Digital Pet Care Products and Services market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market size for digital pet care products and services is anticipated to witness swift expansion in the coming few years, projected to reach $162.94 billion by 2029, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.4%.
This expected surge during the forecast period is credited to factors such as telehealth and remote veterinary services, emphasis on mental health and well-being, subscription-based services, customized nutrition solutions, attention towards the elderly pet population, as well as pet fitness and exercise. The period also expects to see the increasing popularity of smart pet products, pet care mobile applications, the implementation of IoT in pet tracking and monitoring, personalized pet health records, and the impact of social media on pet trends.
The growth of the digital pet care products and services market is anticipated to be fueled by the rising pet adoption rates. Acquiring a pet from a rescue center or a shelter is what pet adoption entails. This trend is increasing the demand for high-end pet care products and services needed to keep these pets healthy, safe, and content. For example, a survey conducted by the American Pet Products Association (APPA) and the human society of the United States, a non-profit organization based in the U.S., revealed that there are 128.451 million U.S. households with pets. Of these households, 54% or roughly 69 million own at least one dog. As such, the escalating rates of pet adoption are contributing to the expansion of the digital pet care products and services market.
