U.S. Pet Grooming Services Market - Industry Outlook and Forecast 2021-2026

In-depth Analysis and Data-driven Insights on the Impact of COVID-19 Included in this U.S. Pet Grooming Services Market Report

The U.S. pet grooming services market by revenue is expected to grow at a CAGR of approx. 5% during the period 2020–2026.

The pet grooming market is witnessing an increasing application of natural and non-toxic products. With the increasing pet humanization trend, coupled with high adoption, several owners prefer organic or natural products to ensure their pets' safety and health. The growing consumer propensity toward organic products provides a better immune system and overall wellbeing in terms of skin, fur, hair, coat, and life expectancy. Pet enthusiasts are switching from products containing artificial additives to natural or organic-based products. In recent times, the animal owners have become increasingly aware of the dangers associated with the use of chemical and toxic grooming products. In an attempt to follow sustainable practices, several grooming service providers opt for reusable and recycled products. Shampoos used in hydro baths have a low pH level, making them recirculated wastewater, which is suitable for gardening. Therefore, the use of non-toxic, eco-friendly, and organic grooming products for bathing, massages, and ear & eye cleaning is likely to boost the U.S pet grooming services market during the forecast period.

The following factors are likely to contribute to the growth of the U.S. pet grooming services market during the forecast period:

• Growing Pet Technology
• Increasing Focus on Non-toxic and Eco-friendly Products
• Growing Business Opportunities
• Increasing Mobile Pet Services

U.S. Pet Grooming Services Market Segmentation
The U.S. pet grooming services market research report includes a detailed segmentation by type, services, operation, geography. The US dog grooming services market expects to reach over USD 3 billion by 2026. A major factor influencing these services is the increasing adoption of dogs and the pet humanization concept's popularity. Approximately 5% of the US adults adopt dogs and are willing to pay for premium care such as healthcare, organic food, training, and regular grooming. The increased awareness of pets' comfort and safety has increased the demand for several products and accessories, including grooming services. With the rise in infections, allergies, bacterial diseases, and other skin disorders, daily grooming services are growing as they reduce skin and other related infectious diseases. The US cat grooming services market is likely to grow at a CAGR of over 5% during 2020–2026. With over 62% pet ownership in the US, over 42 million households own cats. Cats are treated as part of the family, and owners are keen to spend on premium amenities such as grooming and training services. Although cats are self-cleaning creatures with limited grooming needs, regular brushing helps remove loose hairs and dead skin and prevent external parasitic infections.

The bath & dry segment expects to generate a relatively higher revenue than other segments as most grooming amenities require products such as shampoos and conditioners. The segment is growing at a CAGR of approx. 6%, which is expected to grow further during the forecast period. Regular bathing with lukewarm water and mild shampoo keeps the pet hygienic and relaxed and prevents knots and skin infections. However, bathing services come with their own set of challenges as they depend on the animal’s breed, lifestyle, and health needs.

Salon pet grooming services are the primary revenue generators and are expected to dominate during the forecast period. Salon services are affordable and can provide services to a large number of pets per day. These services can take a longer duration than mobile services and are widely available across the US. These saloons offer bathing, brushing, nail trimming, ear and eye cleaning, haircutting, de-shedding, de-matting, and flea and tick treatment services. However, these services are often stressful for pets as they are time-consuming, and standard grooming services take longer than mobile grooming services.
