India's Pet Creator Economy
India's pet ownership grew 35% between 2020 and 2025, with dogs and cats being the primary categories. India's pet care market crossed ₹5,000 Cr in 2025 and is growing at 20%+ annually. Pet creator content — dogs, cats, exotic pets — consistently generates some of Instagram's highest organic engagement. Pet brands have recognised this and are investing heavily in creator marketing.
