About this tool

US pet owners spend roughly $1,400–$4,000/year on a dog and $900–$2,500 on a cat — food and routine vet are just the base; insurance (~$30–70/mo dogs), grooming, boarding ($40–75/night) and the surprise $2,000 emergency fund decide the real number. This calculator totals your inputs, shows first-year extras (shots, neutering, supplies), and converts it to a monthly amount you can budget.
