In addition, there is a growing need for pet insurance to help mitigate expenses associated with serious medical conditions like accidental injuries and cancer, thereby fueling market expansion. The surge in demand for veterinary healthcare facilities is also expected to drive the adoption of pet insurance, as these services often involve significant capital investment, specialized personnel, and specialized diagnostic equipment, leading to higher treatment costs for pet owners. In addition, increasing disposable income of pet owners, especially in developing economies, has made pet insurance more affordable and accessible, driving market growth.

The COVID-19 pandemic posed significant challenges for various stakeholders in the companion animal industry, including pet owners, veterinarians, veterinary hospitals, and animal health companies. However, the industry quickly responded by implementing supportive measures to ensure continued access to veterinary care and related services. The pandemic-induced challenges also prompted pet parents to become more aware of the importance of mitigating financial risks by acquiring pet insurance policies. A survey conducted by Petplan, a leading player in the UK market, revealed a rise in pet ownership during 2020, with dogs being the most favored pets followed by cats.

Approximately 47% of respondents reported acquiring pets for the first time, and overall, around 26% of pet owners in the UK welcomed a new pet amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Three key reasons for getting a pet were identified to be work-from-home conditions, desire for companionship, and more time spent at home due to lockdown movement restrictions. One-fifth of the respondents stated that they were more likely to buy an insurance policy for their pets. Overall, the pandemic increased the demand for risk protection among pet parents. Companies, such as Animal Friends Insurance, began offering coverage for remote consultation by partnering with Joii Pet Care. This, combined with growing pet humanization and expenditure, will propel market growth.
