The Global Petcare IoT Platforms market size was accounted at USD 5.64 Bn in 2021; It is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.90% from 2022 to 2030. The IoT (Internet of Things) technology is extensively emerging for pets. Currently, several IoT devices and applications such as GPS collars, smart collars, telemedicine apps are available for pets and owners to help track activities, collect health data, protect, feed, follow, and monitor pets, even if owners are not with their pets.
The key driving factors of the Petcare IoT Platforms Market include the advances in digital technologies, fast adoption of pet IoT platforms, a growing number of pet ownerships, increasing preference of pet owners towards petcare digital apps, and the rising consciousness about pet health and fitness. Many players operating in this market are continually updating and launching different pet IoT products, likely to surge the Petcare IoT Platforms Market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in September 2020, Petcube released a new Petcube Cam, an affordable smart camera with built-in live vet chat. The new device pairs the advanced pet monitoring functions with online veterinarian advice, making on-demand pet care accessible to every pet parent. However, the lack of knowledge about IoT petcare services and the expensive IoT services are anticipated to restrict market adoption in the upcoming years.
