Running a doggy day care centre means providing a safe, fun, and caring environment for your clients’ pets. But with great care comes great responsibility, so having the right insurance is essential. Our tailored doggy day care insurance protects your business, your team, and the dogs you look after, giving you peace of mind when the unexpected happens.
Why do doggy day care businesses need insurance?
Caring for someone’s beloved pet is a big responsibility. Accidents, injuries, or unforeseen situations can happen, no matter how careful you are. With proper insurance, you’re covered for the unexpected, so you can focus on running your business with confidence.
