Consequently, the demand for pet insurance has considerably surged in the last few years.

Pet food is the largest segment of North America’s pet care. Growing attraction towards healthy, nutritious, and organic foods has been experienced as a major trend in the market. The North American pet food market has grown significantly during the historic period, where the revenue from dog and cat food has been registered the highest. The region’s pet service segment such as healthcare, accessories, and grooming products has diverted the attention of consumers to provide the pets with new aged facilities. Pet owners nowadays are more inclined towards taking the utmost care of their pets, which has resulted in the consumer’s attraction towards pet grooming services. For such a growing attraction, the grooming segment of the pet service sector has grown at the fastest pace historically and will continue to show the same trend in the coming years.

The North American pet grooming market growth evaluation includes the analysis of Canada and the United States. In the United States, dogs are the most popular household pet. As per the AVMA (American Veterinary Medical Association), more than 76 million pet dogs are cared for by 48 million households. The other preferred animals include reptiles, rabbits, and fish. Fish are the third most popular pet in the country, with almost 12% of households having at least one fish.

COVID-19 Impacts:
Most of the consumers in the market grappled with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, in terms of stockpiling pet food products, by switching to the e-commerce retail platforms after being compelled by several restrictions levied on the brick-and-mortar stores and the disruption of the overall supply channel in general. However, major players have shifted their focus from retail stores to e-commerce platforms by increasing their investments in developing their websites. Thus, this pandemic did not affect the market much.
