Animal Digital Health Market Report 2026

The animal digital health market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $6.92 billion in 2025 to $8.33 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing adoption of digital tools in veterinary clinics, increasing awareness of animal health and welfare, rise in pet ownership globally, advancements in veterinary diagnostic technologies, limited integration of real-time health monitoring systems.

The animal digital health market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $17.31 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of wearable and implantable devices for animals, increased investment in AI-driven veterinary solutions, integration of cloud and big data analytics in animal health, rise of telehealth and virtual veterinary services, growing demand for precision livestock farming. Major trends in the forecast period include remote health monitoring, predictive analytics for disease management, personalized treatment plans, cloud-based veterinary data integration, mobile and wearable health applications.

The increase in pet ownership is expected to drive growth in the animal digital health market. Pet ownership involves caring for animals such as dogs or cats for companionship, emotional support, or recreational purposes. This trend is rising due to the growing humanization of pets, where animals are treated as family members and provide emotional well-being to their owners. Animal digital health supports this shift by allowing pet owners to remotely monitor health, track activity, detect early signs of illness, manage vaccinations, and access veterinary care efficiently, all contributing to improved pet well-being. For example, in March 2025, the American Pet Products Association reported that 94 million U.S. households owned at least one pet, up from 82 million in 2023. As a result, the rise in pet ownership is contributing to the growth of the animal digital health market.

Companies in the animal digital health space are developing advanced technologies such as AI-powered urine sediment analysis to improve diagnostic accuracy, accelerate disease detection, streamline veterinary workflows, and enhance animal health management for both companion and livestock animals. This technology uses artificial intelligence to automatically examine urine samples for abnormalities, leading to faster and more accurate diagnostics. In January 2024, Zoetis Inc., a U.S.-based animal healthcare company, introduced Vetscan Imagyst, an AI-driven diagnostic platform that supports efficient in-clinic testing. The platform applies deep learning algorithms to analyze fecal, blood, cytology, and urine sediment samples, helping veterinarians identify parasites, infections, and other conditions with improved accuracy. Its cloud-based system enables real-time data sharing and remote specialist consultation, facilitating better collaboration and decision-making in veterinary practices.

In September 2023, Mars Incorporated, a U.S.-based producer of pet food, confectionery, and other food items, acquired SYNLAB Veterinary Diagnostics for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition expands Mars’ veterinary laboratory operations across Europe and enhances its diagnostics portfolio, supporting a wider range of veterinary professionals and pet owners with advanced healthcare solutions. SYNLAB Veterinary Diagnostics, based in Germany, offers digital health services including telemedicine, digital cytology, and at-home diagnostic tools.
