Why do You Need Dog Grooming Insurance
Most pet parents are very sensitive towards their dogs and want to ensure they get the best care and life possible. It also includes making the dogs look their level best.
This poses a lot of pressure on dog groomers to ensure everything looks the best. Following are some of the things you need to care for while dealing with dog grooming.
Pet Safety
Working with dog grooming requires paying attention to detail and grooming dogs in the best way possible. However, this requires using sharp tools like scissors and trimmers. You may harm the pet while doing these simple tasks.
Dog owners can pose a lawsuit on your business because of this. Therefore, dog grooming insurance can help you pay for these extra expenses, without making you financially insecure.
Public Liability
Public Liability includes all sorts of expenses because of damage by a dog under your care. This includes injury or damage to another person or their property by that pet. We understand that it is quite rare, but still a possibility.
It also covers you in case a client gets injured in your business place. For example, it covers you if a client slips and hits themselves because of a wet floor in your salon. Most of this liability coverage starts from £1 million.
Product Liability
Product liability covers damages caused by any products you use or supply to your clients/customers. For example, if a toy or grooming product you sold to the customer injures them or their pet.
Employer’s Liability
This kind of coverage provides support if an employee gets injured during working hours. For instance, if a dog bites any of your employees and they start pursuing legal action against you. This would cover the court fee and the compensation amount that you would pay yourself otherwise.
Theft of Taking
Running a dog grooming business requires dealing in checks or cash both. This policy covers owners in case of theft or stolen items from you or anyone you are working for.
Building Coverage
The building coverage plans provide financial support in case your building takes damage because of a flood or a fire. It provides for the cost of repairs and reinstatements. Additionally, you can include equipment breakdown coverage for items that aren’t part of your standard building.
For example, you can get coverage for broken boilers and fire/burglar alarms, unless caused by wear and tear.
Content Coverage
Dog grooming business owners can also choose content coverage for equipment that they need to run your business. This includes washables, shampoos, chew toys, or other essentials for your dog grooming.
You can also insure the furniture, electrical items, and other integral electrical components of the shop stay in optimal shape too.
This kind of damage can come from an unpleasant event like a flood, fire, theft, or others. However, it does not include any damage from a pet directly.
