Frequently asked questions
Can pet groomers buy business insurance online?
Many eligible pet-grooming and pet-service businesses can complete an online application. The exact services, animals, location, size, losses, and requested coverage determine eligibility.
Does General Liability cover every injury to an animal in my care?
Do not assume it does. Animal bailee or other specific coverage may be needed for animals in the business's care, custody, or control. Review the offered policy terms before purchase.
Online eligibility and coverage are not guaranteed. Products, terms, pricing, effective dates, and document availability are determined during the application. Actual policy documents control.
