We surveyed over 20,000 pet owners and asked them about the quality and value of products and services in 68 categories ranging from food and treats to grooming they had purchased or researched themselves and whether they would recommend those brands to friends and family. We then made 308 awards to 203 brands (a brand could be awarded in more than one category). Americans spend a lot of money every year on companions with fur, feathers or scales. According to the American Pet Products Association, Americans spent a total of $123.6 billion on their pets in 2021, a new record, up from the previous record high of $103.6 billion in 2020.
It's probably no wonder, given the state of the world these days. When we asked survey participants if they thought owning a pet improves mental health, 94 percent answered, "Yes." Additionally, 80 percent told us they thought emotional support animals should be permitted in the same public spaces that services animals are. We hope you find our ranking useful as you shop for your pet or pets.

Methodology
The America's Best Petcare Brands 2022 rankings were identified from the results of an independent survey of over 20,000 U.S. pet owners who have either made purchases, used services or gathered information about relevant products or services in the past three years. Respondents evaluated several brands; in total more than 100,000 evaluations were collected. The awarded brands each received on average 60 evaluations each from respondents.
The survey was conducted on petcare products and services from 68 categories, providing results for a broad-spectrum of product experiences in a wide variety of categories. For each category, the most relevant brands were included in the scope of the survey according to reputation, turnover or market share.
