2017-2018 Pet-Sitting Industry Forecast. This newly-released report shares positive news for professional pet sitters, as pet ownership remains high in the United States and abroad and pet spending increases year over year. The most recent data from the American Pet Products Association (APPA) indicates that “pet services, which includes grooming, boarding, walking, training, pet sitting, exercise and yard services for our pampered pets, saw the largest growth again this year and more than tripled the growth percentage of any other category.” In fact, spending on pet services reflected an 11.8 percent growth rate from 2014 to 2015, with pet owners spending $5.41 billion on pet-related services.
