Why the pet industry

JOIN THE BEST OPPORTUNITY IN THE BOOMING PET INDUSTRY

The pet sector is a booming $7 billion industry and is showing no signs of slowing down, with growth projections to over $110 billion by 2023. Forty-one per cent of Canadian households own a pet and there are over 8.2 million dogs in Canada. That’s a 10 per cent increase over the past 10 years, according to the Canadian Animal Health Institute (CAHI). Growth in this sector, not surprisingly, has coincided with a significant national increase in what pet parents spend on their pets. According to Forbes, an astounding 92% of pet owners spent the same or more on their pets during the most recent recession period. No matter the economy, people love their pets and more than ever, and dog daycare and pet services, in general, are booming!

DOG DAYCARE SERVICES ARE HERE TO STAY: RECESSION RESISTANT

The industry is stable and growing. No matter the economy, people love their pets. Even during the 2008 financial crisis, the sector was growing anywhere from 5% to 10% per year. People scaled back on some of their other discretionary spending, material possessions, vehicles, homes, even vacations, but they continued to invest in the care of their dog.

And more than ever pet parents are looking for dog daycare and services. According to Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (Ag Canada), a third of respondents in a recent study said their dog or cat’s health and well-being was of greater concern to them than their own.
