DELRAY BEACH, Fla., Aug. 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The global Pet Insurance Market, valued at US$12.51 billion in 2024, stood at US$14.35 billion in 2025 and is projected to advance at a resilient CAGR of 15.7% from 2025 to 2030, culminating in a forecasted valuation of US$29.80 billion by the end of the period. This growth is mainly driven by changing consumer preferences, increasing veterinary care costs, and the growing adoption of digital technologies throughout the insurance industry.
A key factor driving market growth is the ongoing increase in pet ownership, with people who see pets as family members being more likely to invest in their long-term health. This trend leads to higher demand for comprehensive insurance policies that cover accidents, illnesses, and preventive care services. Additionally, the rising cost of veterinary treatments, including diagnostics, surgeries, and chronic disease management, encourages pet owners to choose insurance products to manage financial risks.
Moreover, growing awareness of pet insurance benefits, including pet coverage in employee benefits programs, and expanding adoption in emerging markets further reinforce the market's growth trajectory.

By product type, In the pet insurance market, the private segment held the largest share in 2024. This dominance is mainly driven by their wide reach, flexible policy options, and strong brand recognition. Unlike public or government-backed programs, private insurers can quickly innovate and customize plans to meet different consumer needs, including accident and illness coverage, wellness add-ons, and customizable deductibles. These companies also invest heavily in digital platforms, marketing, and partnerships with veterinary clinics, pet retailers, and tech startups, boosting customer acquisition and engagement. Additionally, private insurers often provide faster claims processing and more responsive customer service, resulting in higher satisfaction and retention rates among policyholders.
By animal type, Cats are the fastest-growing segment in the pet insurance market due to increasing cat ownership, especially in urban households where limited space makes cats a more practical pet choice. Growing awareness among cat owners about the benefits of preventive healthcare and the rising costs of veterinary treatments for common chronic conditions like kidney disease and diabetes are boosting demand for insurance coverage. Additionally, insurers are expanding their product options with cat-specific plans that include wellness add-ons and lower premiums, making coverage more affordable and attractive to cat owners.
By geography, in 2024, Europe held the largest market share for pet insurance due to high pet ownership rates, a strong cultural focus on animal welfare, and widespread acceptance of pet insurance, especially in countries like Sweden, the United Kingdom, and Germany. The region benefits from a mature insurance infrastructure and supportive regulatory frameworks that promote the development and adoption of pet insurance products. Furthermore, increasing veterinary care costs and a growing tendency among Europeans to treat pets as family members have boosted demand for financial protection through insurance. The presence of established insurers, along with ongoing innovation in policy offerings and digital distribution channels, continues to bolster Europe's leadership in the global pet insurance market.
