The U.S. pet travel services market size was estimated at USD 659.90 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 1.37 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 8.66% from 2025 to 2033. The industry is growing significantly, driven by rising pet ownership and humanization of pets, expansion of pet-friendly infrastructure, and technological advancements in pet safety and monitoring. According to a Forbes Media LLC report, as of 2024, 66% of U.S. households (approximately 86.9 million homes) own a pet, reflecting the nation’s strong pet culture. Notably, 97% of pet owners consider their pets part of the family, highlighting the deep emotional bond between people and animals. Dogs remain the most popular pet, with 65.1 million U.S. households owning one, followed closely by cats, owned by 46.5 million households. This widespread ownership fuels demand for products and services that support pet health, comfort, and lifestyle.

The growing number of pet owners in the U.S., coupled with the trend of treating pets as family members, is a major driver for the pet travel services market. Pet parents are increasingly willing to invest in safe, comfortable, and premium travel arrangements for their animals. This includes everything from airline pet cabins and chauffeured ground transport to luxury pet resorts.
