Pet DNA Testing Global Market Report 2026

Pet deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) testing is a scientific method used to analyze a pet's genetic material to gather information about its breed, ancestry, health predispositions, and inherited traits. The process involves collecting a DNA sample, typically through a cheek swab or blood sample, and analyzing specific genetic markers. The results provide valuable insights into the pet's genetic background, helping pet owners and veterinarians make informed decisions about care, nutrition, and medical treatment.

The main types of tests in pet DNA testing include breed profile, genetic diseases, and health and wellness. A breed profile test identifies a pet's genetic ancestry by determining the specific breeds present in its DNA. These tests can be conducted using various sample types, such as blood, saliva, or fecal samples. They are applicable to different pet species, including dogs, cats, and other animals, and cater to a wide range of end users, including pet owners, breeders, and veterinarians.

Tariffs have impacted the pet DNA testing market by raising the cost of imported testing kits, reagents, and sequencing equipment, which affects both manufacturers and end consumers. Regions like North America and Europe that rely on imported DNA testing technology are particularly affected. Breed profile and genetic disease testing segments face higher costs due to these tariffs. However, tariffs have also encouraged local production and innovation in domestic genetic testing solutions, helping companies reduce dependence on imports and improve service accessibility.

This pet dna testing market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.

The pet dna testing market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $0.59 billion in 2025 to $0.65 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing pet ownership, increasing awareness of pet genetics, limited access to veterinary genetic services, rise of companion animal care, early adoption of breed profiling tests.

The pet dna testing market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $0.93 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to technological advancements in pet dna testing, increasing demand for preventive pet healthcare, rising investment by genetic testing companies, expansion of online and retail distribution channels, growing integration with veterinary and breeding programs. Major trends in the forecast period include rising adoption of pet dna testing for breed identification, growing demand for genetic disease screening in pets, increasing use of dna tests for nutritional and behavioral insights, expansion of direct-to-consumer pet dna testing kits, integration of dna testing services with veterinary clinics and breeders.

The rising rate of pet adoption is expected to drive the growth of the pet DNA testing market in the coming years. Pet adoption refers to the act of providing a permanent home to animals such as cats and dogs, most commonly through shelters or rescue organizations. Adoption rates have increased due to greater awareness of the social and ethical benefits of adopting animals from shelters, encouraging more individuals and families to choose adoption instead of purchasing pets. Pet DNA testing helps identify a pet's breed composition, uncover potential genetic health risks, and provide insights into behavioral traits, enabling owners to make better-informed decisions regarding nutrition, training, and healthcare. For example, in August 2024, according to PetRescue Ltd., an Australia-based national animal welfare charity, pet adoption in Australia remained strong in 2023, with 62,653 cats and dogs finding new homes, an increase of 10,000 compared to the 52,593 animals adopted in 2022. Therefore, increasing pet adoption rates are driving the growth of the pet DNA testing market.

Major companies operating in the pet DNA testing market are focusing on the development of innovative products such as advanced pet DNA testing kits to meet the growing demand for personalized pet care. Pet DNA testing kits enable pet owners to collect DNA samples at home for analysis of breed makeup, inherited health risks, and genetic traits. For instance, in April 2024, the American Kennel Club (AKC), a U.S.-based not-for-profit organization and the world's largest registry of purebred dogs, launched AKC DNA + Health, an advanced pet DNA testing solution that combines DNA identification with comprehensive genetic health and trait analysis. The kit integrates an AKC DNA profile with more than 328 genetic markers used to screen for hereditary health conditions and physical traits, supporting breeders in making informed decisions and helping meet AKC registration requirements. Developed in collaboration with laboratory partner Neogen, the product also provides lifetime access to canine genetic counselors to assist users in understanding results and planning breeding strategies. This solution supports responsible breeding practices, improves breed health, and delivers comprehensive genetic insights through a single testing platform.

In September 2024, Orivet Genetic Pet Care Pty Ltd, an Australia-based provider of pet DNA testing services, acquired Animal DNA Diagnostics Ltd for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, Orivet aimed to expand its presence across the UK and Europe, enhance its laboratory infrastructure and customer support capabilities, and integrate Animal DNA Diagnostics' established customer base into its global pet genetics platform. Animal DNA Diagnostics Ltd is a UK-based provider of pet genetic testing services, offering DNA-based breed identification, parentage verification, and hereditary disease testing for dogs and other companion animals, serving both pet owners and breeders.
