The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of ai-powered predictive analytics platforms, growth of deep learning and computer vision applications, adoption of on-farm ai monitoring systems, increasing use of ai in drug discovery and development, integration of managed ai services and consulting in animal health. Major trends in the forecast period include predictive analytics for animal health, ai-based disease detection and diagnosis systems, on-farm monitoring and livestock management tools, ai-enabled animal nutrition and health monitoring, veterinary practice management software.

The growing pet ownership is anticipated to drive the expansion of the artificial intelligence in animal health market in the coming years. The pet-owning population includes all households that have one or more companion animals, representing the primary segment for specialized animal healthcare and technology-enabled solutions. Pet ownership is increasing as more households consider pets part of the family, leading to greater demand for advanced health monitoring, diagnostics, and preventive care for animals. Artificial intelligence in animal health addresses this growing population by offering predictive analytics, remote monitoring, disease detection, and data-driven insights that enhance animal wellbeing and improve the efficiency of veterinary care. For instance, in June 2025, according to The American Pet Products Association (APPA), a US-based organization, pet ownership continued to rise, with 94 million US households owning at least one pet, up from 82 million in 2023. Therefore, the growing pet ownership is fueling the growth of the artificial intelligence in animal health market.

Key companies operating in the artificial intelligence in animal health market are emphasizing the integration of wearable and smart sensor technologies to enhance real-time monitoring of animal health and strengthen preventive care efforts. Wearable devices and sensors collect data on vital signs, behavior, and activity levels, which are analyzed by AI algorithms to identify early signs of illness, stress, or abnormal behavior, thereby improving animal welfare. For example, in 2023, PetPace, a US-based animal health technology company, introduced an AI-powered smart collar that tracks pets’ heart rate, temperature, and activity patterns, providing real-time alerts to veterinarians and pet owners when irregularities are detected. The objective of this innovation is to enable continuous, non-invasive monitoring, facilitate early disease detection, improve treatment outcomes, and lower veterinary intervention costs through predictive health management.

In July 2025, Vetted Pet Health, a US-based digital pet wellness company, acquired the AI technology assets of Dogiz, an Israel-based pet health startup, for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, Vetted Pet Health aims to enhance its upcoming mobile application with AI-driven features such as personalized habit tracking, preventive care insights, and community engagement tools for pet owners. Dogiz is an Israel-based company specializing in AI solutions for monitoring and analyzing pet health behaviors to generate actionable wellness recommendations.
