Ltd.10.26689/ssr.v8i4.14856ArticleA Study on the Symbiotic Business Model of the Pet Economy and Public Welfare Assistance under a P2P Frameworkhttps://artdesignp.com/journal/SSR/8/4/10.26689/ssr.v8i4.14856XieYi,WuZhiheng,ChiYuqi,RenHuihui2026842026-05-25The burgeoning pet consumption market in China is experiencing continuous expansion, concurrently escalating the pressures of stray animal governance. Existing conventional pet service frameworks are generally characterized by low supply-demand matching efficiency, a disconnect between commercial operations and public welfare assistance, and a lack of standardized service protocols. This project leverages a P2P (peer-to-peer) service model to establish a comprehensive platform integrating temporary pet boarding, regulated adoption, health and wellness care, and public welfare support. This initiative aims to organically unite market-driven pet services with animal protection advocacy. Through multi-dimensional industry analysis utilizing PEST, SWOT, and Porter’s Five Forces models, the project clarifies the platform’s overall positioning, service architecture, operational strategies, and developmental trajectory. It also constructs mechanisms for risk mitigation, compliant operations, and synergistic collaboration between commercial and public welfare endeavors, thereby achieving a unification of economic, social, and ecological value. Practical analysis indicates that this model can effectively enhance the operational efficiency of pet services, reduce instances of pet abandonment, and optimize urban stray animal management structures, demonstrating significant market feasibility and promotional significance.
