The growing pet population is expected to drive the growth of the pet mobility aid market in the coming years. Pet population refers to the number of domesticated animals kept by humans as companions, typically within a specific geographic region or country. This population is increasing due to the rising popularity of pets as household companions. Pet mobility aids support this growth by enhancing the quality of life, independence, and longevity of aging, injured, or disabled animals, allowing more pets to remain active, cared for, and comfortably integrated into households despite physical limitations. For example, in April 2025, according to the Canadian Animal Health Institute, a Canada-based trade association, Canada was home to an estimated 7.2 million dogs and 8.2 million cats in 2024, making pets a central part of over half of Canadian households. Therefore, the increasing pet population is driving growth in the pet mobility aid market.

For instance, in January 2024, Walkin’ Pets, a US-based veterinary products company, launched its Vet Exclusive Line of mobility products.
