Pet Wearable Global Market Report 2024

Pet wearables are devices designed to be worn on the body of pets, including dogs, cats, and other animals, serving various purposes such as identification, tracking, monitoring, control, medical diagnosis, treatment, facilitation, safety, and security. These devices collect data that is then tracked through a companion app installed on the pet owner's smart device. Pet wearables are utilized to monitor information related to pets, including their fitness, activity levels, sleep patterns, behavior, and steps.

The primary types of pet wearables include smart collars, smart cameras, smart harnesses and vests, and other specialized devices. Smart cameras transmit audio and visual feeds wirelessly to pet owners, allowing them to remotely monitor their pet's activities. These wearables employ various technologies, including RFID devices, GPS, sensors, Bluetooth, and others, for purposes such as identification and tracking, monitoring and control, medical diagnosis, and treatment.

The pet wearable market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3.44 billion in 2023 to $4 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.4%.
The growth in the historic period can be attributed to pet owners' concerns for the health and safety of their pets, the increase in pet ownership and humanization, the adoption of wearable technology in other sectors, veterinary recommendations for monitoring, and regulatory standards for pet safety.

The pet wearable market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.61 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.4%.
The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the expansion of telemedicine for pets, customized pet health and wellness plans, AI-driven pet behavior analysis, growth in pet fitness and activity tracking, and smart pet products and accessories. Major trends in the forecast period include wearables for specific pet species (e.g., cats, birds), wearable tech for pet emotion recognition, augmented reality experiences for pets, and pet data marketplaces and analytics, as well as subscription-based pet monitoring services.

The growth of the pet wearable market has been fueled by a global increase in demand for pet monitoring. Pet owners, considering their pets as family members, are increasingly investing in pet-related products and services. According to the 2023-2024 APPA National Pet Owners Survey by the American Pet Products Association, 86.9 million U.S. families adopted new pets during the pandemic. Additionally, in the UK, 3.2 million households acquired new pets during the COVID-19 pandemic, as reported by the Pet Food Manufacturers Association. This surge in pet adoption signifies a heightened demand for pet-related goods, including pet wearable devices.

The expansion of pet insurance is anticipated to drive the growth of the pet wearable market in the future. Pet insurance policies provide financial coverage for veterinary care, medications, surgeries, and other services in case of a pet's illness or injury. Pet wearables play a role in pet insurance by monitoring animal health, tracking activity levels, and supplying data that can support claims and encourage preventive care. The North American Pet Health Insurance Association reported that the pet insurance industry in North America exceeded $2.83 billion by the end of 2021, with substantial growth over the past four years (2018 – 2021). Therefore, the rise of pet insurance is a significant factor contributing to the expansion of the pet wearable market.

Companies in the pet wearable market are increasingly incorporating Internet of Things (IoT) technology into pet tracking devices, allowing pet owners to seamlessly monitor their pets' activity and location. IoT-enabled pet trackers utilize GPS or cellular tower triangulation to precisely locate the tracker. The data collected can be accessed through a companion application on the pet owner's smartphone, offering benefits like accurate location tracking, geofencing notifications, and extended battery life. For example, Vodafone Group PLC launched the Curve Smart GPS tracker pack in September 2021, showcasing IoT-enabled tracking capabilities for pets.

Leading companies in the pet wearable market are introducing eco-friendly products to address environmental concerns. Eco-friendly pet wearables are sustainable and environmentally conscious accessories designed for pets, such as collars or harnesses, to minimize their environmental impact. NITE IZE launched the SpotLit Rechargeable Collar Light in August 2021, featuring Disc-O Tech LED technology for color-changing effects and rechargeability, transitioning from single-use batteries to eco-friendly rechargeability. This emphasizes the industry's commitment to sustainability and responsible pet ownership.

In November 2021, Life360 Inc., a leader in family location and safety services, including pet tracking, acquired Jiobit for $37 million. With this acquisition, Life360 Inc. aims to establish dominance in both hardware and software products for families and pets in the US market.
