Why the pet industry?

The pet industry allows animal lovers the chance to not only play with dogs, but also the ability to work in a field they feel good about – providing positive experiences to all breeds of dogs and their pet parents. Spending your days doing something you have a passion for makes the entire work experience more rewarding, increases personal gratification and boosts overall happiness. As the old saying goes, “Love what you do, and you’ll never work a day in your life.”

The pet industry’s growth rate is impressive and shows no signs of slowing down. In 2020, $103.6 billion was spent on pets in the U.S., which is up 6.6 percent year over year in an industry that has grown steadily since the mid-’90s, says the American Pet Products Association.
