Increasing pet companionship rates is expected to propel the growth of the pet funeral services market going forward.

Increasing pet companionship rates are driven by factors such as growing awareness of the emotional and psychological benefits of pet ownership, urbanization, and a rise in single-person households seeking companionship. Pet funeral services provide emotional support and closure for pet owners, helping them honor and memorialize their pets. For instance, in March 2025, according to the American Pet Products Association (APPA), a US-based nonprofit industry research organization, 94 million U.S. households reported owning at least one pet, up from 82 million in 2023, reflecting a significant increase in pet companionship rates over a two year period. Therefore, the increasing pet companionship rates will drive the growth of the pet funeral services industry.

Global Pet Funeral Services Market Trends and Insights

Major companies operating in the pet funeral services market are focusing on green and eco-friendly options such as aquamation to meet growing consumer demand for sustainable and environmentally responsible end-of-life solutions. Aquamation is an environmentally friendly method of body disposition that uses water, alkali, and heat to break down the body into its basic components, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional cremation and burial. For instance, in March 2023, The Green Mortician, a Singapore-based pet funeral service provider, launched Singapore's first pet aquamation service, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional cremation. This method, also known as alkaline hydrolysis, utilizes heated water and alkaline chemicals to decompose the body, achieving natural breakdown with approximately 90% less energy and no harmful emissions. With a carbon footprint significantly lower than traditional methods, aquamation consumes about 800 liters of water per cycle, equivalent to the daily usage of a household of five.
