Segment Analysis

By Service Type:

In 2023, care visits emerged as the most prominent service in the pet sitting market, contributing significantly to overall market sales due to their tailored and flexible nature. Pet owners now prefer care visits over traditional board-and-care services, as pets experience less anxiety and lower risk of illness in their own homes. Care visits held a 42% market share in 2023, driven by the increasing number of city-based households with full-time workers who need midday check-ins or evening care.

The fastest-growing service category is overnight stays, as pet owners increasingly seek comprehensive 24-hour care. Many are willing to pay a premium for services that provide added companionship and supervision, particularly for elderly or infirm pets.

By Pet Type:

In 2023, the dog segment accounted for the largest share of the pet sitting market, representing approximately 81% of total market revenue. Dogs typically require more physical attention, exercise, and social interaction than other pets, boosting the demand for professional sitters. Furthermore, the strong emotional and behavioral bonds between people and dogs increase the willingness of owners to invest in reliable pet care services—whether they are traveling or simply busy.

Cats represent the fastest-growing segment by number, particularly among urban dwellers who appreciate their low-maintenance needs. This trend is expected to continue, especially with the introduction of services like Upfront Cat Services on pet care platforms, addressing a market that had previously overlooked feline-specific care.

Regional Analysis

In terms of market share, North America dominated the global pet sitting market in 2023, thanks to high pet ownership rates, strong consumer awareness, and a well-organized ecosystem of professional pet sitters. The U.S. leads the region with a robust infrastructure that includes mobile applications, insured pet sitters, and digital scheduling platforms. The rise of “pet parenting” has transformed animals into family members, further increasing demand for personalized care.

The Asia-Pacific region is the fastest-growing, driven by rapid urbanization, rising middle-class incomes, and a cultural shift toward pet companionship. Structured pet care services are increasingly in demand in countries such as China, Japan, and India. For example, China has become a hub for pet care services, with young professionals acquiring more pets and busy families adopting mobile van pet-sitting models.
