Canada Veterinary Services Market Overview, 2028

Canada's veterinary services market has experienced remarkable growth and transformation in recent years. As a nation of pet lovers, Canada boasts a diverse and dynamic veterinary industry. The increasing number of pet owners has led to a surge in demand for veterinary services. Pet owners are more inclined than ever to seek routine checkups, vaccinations, and preventive care for their beloved animals. This trend has significantly contributed to the growth of veterinary practises across the country. Veterinary clinics in Canada have embraced advanced medical technologies and equipment. From digital radiography and ultrasound to advanced surgical techniques and laboratory diagnostics, Canadian veterinarians have access to state-of-the-art tools for diagnosing and treating a wide range of conditions. This commitment to technological advancement ensures that pets receive the best possible care. Canada has witnessed a proliferation of specialised veterinary clinics and referral centres. These facilities cater to specific medical fields such as cardiology, oncology, dermatology, and orthopaedics. Pet owners now have the option to seek specialised care for their pets, often leading to improved treatment outcomes. Canadians have a deep-rooted tradition of compassion and respect for animals. This tradition extends to the practise of veterinary medicine, where veterinarians are expected to provide care with empathy and consideration for the well-being of animals.

According to the research report ""Canada Veterinary Service Market Overview, 2028,"" published by Bonafide Research, the Canada Veterinary Service market is projected to reach a market size of more than USD 5 billion by 2028. Preventive care is a tradition that emphasises the importance of regular checkups and vaccinations for pets. Canadian pet owners often follow a preventive care schedule to ensure their animals remain healthy and free from preventable diseases. Canadians take pride in responsible pet ownership. This tradition includes providing proper nutrition, exercise, and socialisation for pets, as well as seeking veterinary care when needed. It also involves spaying and neutering to control pet populations. Canada's rich biodiversity and commitment to wildlife conservation are reflected in the tradition of veterinary care for wild animals. Wildlife rehabilitation centres and veterinary professionals work together to rescue and rehabilitate injured or orphaned wildlife. Based on the animal types, which include production animals and companion animals, the production animals lead the market. Canada is known for its large and diverse herds of livestock. Cattle, in particular, are a significant part of the agricultural landscape. Managing the health of these herds requires ongoing veterinary care. Veterinary services in Canada focus on preventing diseases among production animals. Regular check-ups, vaccination programmes, and disease surveillance are essential to safeguarding herds and flocks from diseases that can lead to economic losses. Canadian consumers and regulators place a high value on the welfare of production animals. Veterinary services are instrumental in ensuring that animals are raised and managed in ways that prioritise their well-being.

Based on the service types segment, it includes physical health, monitoring, surgery, diagnostic tests and imaging, artificial insemination, grooming, vaccination, and others (biosecurity, dental care, etc.). Many veterinary clinics and hospitals in Canada offer specialised surgical services. This includes soft tissue surgery, orthopaedic surgery, neurosurgery, ophthalmic surgery, and more. Specialisation allows veterinarians to provide advanced surgical care for specific medical conditions. Canadian pet owners increasingly expect a high standard of care for their animals. They are willing to invest in surgical procedures to improve their pets' quality of life and address health issues. Canadian veterinary hospitals, especially those offering emergency services, are equipped to handle surgical emergencies, such as trauma cases and life-threatening conditions. This capability ensures timely surgical intervention when needed. The ageing pet population in Canada requires surgical interventions for age-related health issues, including dental problems, tumours, and degenerative joint diseases. Furthermore, vaccination is growing as veterinary services expand; Canadian pet owners increasingly recognise the importance of preventive healthcare for their animals. Vaccinations are a cornerstone of preventive care, as they protect pets from a range of infectious diseases. Regular vaccinations are seen as a proactive way to ensure the health and well-being of pets. Many pet diseases can also affect humans (zoonotic diseases). Canadian authorities emphasise the importance of vaccinating pets to protect both animal and human populations from diseases like rabies and leptospirosis.

Based on the end user segment, which includes the veterinary hospital, veterinary clinic, outdoors/ambulatory, and online, among them the veterinary clinic is a growing market. Veterinary clinics provide comprehensive care for pets, offering a wide range of services beyond routine check-ups, including vaccinations, dental care, surgical procedures, and preventive medicine. This approach ensures that pets receive all the care they need in one location. Veterinary medicine has evolved significantly with advancements in diagnostics, treatments, and surgical techniques. Veterinary clinics are equipped with state-of-the-art equipment, allowing for more accurate diagnoses and advanced treatments. Government regulations and licencing requirements ensure that veterinary clinics meet specific standards of care, which instill trust in pet owners and maintain high-quality services.
The Canadian Veterinary Medical Association (CVMA) and provincial veterinary regulatory bodies oversee the licencing and accreditation of veterinarians. Veterinarians must meet specific educational and professional standards to practise in Canada. Furthermore, the federal and provincial governments have regulations and laws in place to protect the welfare of animals. These laws address issues such as animal cruelty, neglect, and proper care standards. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) also plays a role in ensuring the welfare of animals in various industries. The government provides funding for research related to animal health, welfare, and veterinary medicine. This support contributes to advancements in veterinary science and medicine. Government initiatives support veterinary education and training programmes, ensuring that the next generation of veterinarians is well-prepared to meet the evolving needs of the veterinary services market.
