Key funding trends in the Pet Tech market
Insights
- Pet Tech funding is highly concentrated, with the ten largest companies capturing approximately 69% of reconstructed capital, which suggests investors have placed unusually large bets on a relatively small group of category leaders.
- Technology-enabled veterinary clinics have attracted roughly $991M across eleven major companies, making software-supported physical care delivery one of the Pet Tech market’s largest capital pools despite the operational complexity of building clinic networks.
- Digital pet insurance companies have raised about $871M, but ManyPets, SantéVet and Lassie account for nearly 89% of that capital, showing how strongly Pet Tech insurance funding has concentrated around a few scaled platforms.
- Veterinary software has attracted only about $267M across ten major companies, less than one-third of the capital raised by leading clinic operators, highlighting the much greater financing requirements of physical veterinary expansion.
- Petvisor, Vetcove and Digitail represent around 70% of identified veterinary software funding, suggesting investors favor platforms embedded deeply in clinic workflows rather than narrowly focused software products.
- Several leading Pet Tech companies depend heavily on one transformative financing, with SantéVet's latest round representing about 94% of lifetime funding and Embark Veterinary's Series B representing roughly 82%.
- Large funding rounds have not guaranteed durable outcomes in Pet Tech, with Wag!'s $300M SoftBank financing accounting for about 83% of its lifetime capital before the company ultimately shut down.
- Connected pet hardware is also concentrated, with Petkit's roughly $96M of funding exceeding the combined capital raised by Fi, Companion, Petcube, PetPace and Inupathy.

A few word about our methodology
As you can see, we built a database that ranks startups in the Pet Tech market based on their total cumulative fundraising. To create this ranking, we reviewed many sources and cross-checked information across multiple places.
Whenever possible, we prioritized official company communications, since they are the most reliable source for funding amounts. When those were not available, we relied on reputable industry sources such as TechCrunch, Crunchbase, Financial Times or Forbes (to name a few).
We excluded random blogs, unverified websites, and any sources that could not be validated.
When Pet Tech funding rounds were announced in other currencies such as euros, Swiss francs, Singapore dollars, Australian dollars, or rupees, we converted them into approximate USD equivalents for consistency.
Sometimes different sources report slightly different numbers, or the exact round size is not fully disclosed. In those cases, we flag the uncertainty and assign a confidence label to each Pet Tech startup, visible in the last column.
Here is what they mean.
Full confidence: The company’s equity fundraising history can be reconstructed completely from public sources. The rounds, dates, amounts, and key investors are clearly identified, with no meaningful gaps.
Strong confidence: The fundraising history is largely complete and reliable. There may be a small missing detail, such as incomplete investor information or a minor round with limited data, but the overall record is clear.
Partial confidence: The main fundraising rounds can be identified, but the record is incomplete or somewhat mixed. Some rounds may be missing or certain funding events may be difficult to separate clearly.
Low confidence: Public information is too limited, inconsistent, or ambiguous to reliably reconstruct the company’s equity fundraising history.
When the confidence level is too low, we take a conservative approach and exclude the company from the ranking. We don’t want to include data that cannot be reliably verified.
This reflects how we conduct all our research, including the work behind our report covering the Pet Tech market.
In a world where LLMs hallucinate and unreliable information is everywhere, our goal is simple: provide data you can trust.
If you want the full detail on a specific calculation, feel free to contact us and we will gladly explain.
Finally, know that we update the dataset once per month, so come back here if you need fresh information.

NEW MARKET PITCH TEAM
We track new markets so founders and investors can move fasterWe build living “market pitch” documents for emerging markets: from AI to synthetic biology and new proteins. Instead of digging through outdated PDFs, random blog posts, and hallucinated LLM answers, our clients get a clean, visual, always-updated view of what’s really happening. We map the key players, deals, regulations, metrics and signals that matter so you can decide faster whether a market is worth your time. Want to know more? Check out our about page. You can also follow us on Instagram or on Facebook.
How we created this content 🔎📝
At New Market Pitch, we kept seeing the same problem: when you look at a new market, the data is either missing, paywalled, or buried in 300-page reports that feel like they were written in the 80s. On the other side, LLMs and random blog posts give you confident answers with no sources, and sometimes they just make things up. That’s not good enough when you’re about to invest real money or launch a company.
So we decided to fix the experience. For each market we cover, we build a structured database and update it on a regular basis. We track funding rounds, fund memos, M&A moves, partnerships, new products, policy changes, and the real activity of startups and incumbents. Then we turn all of that into a clear “market pitch” that shows where the opportunities are and how people actually win in that space.
Every key data point is checked, sourced, and put back into context by our team. That’s how we can give you both speed and reliability: fast coverage of new markets, without the usual guesswork.
