Dog Grooming Insurance FAQs
What does Dog Grooming Insurance cover?
Dog Grooming Business Insurance cover typically includes the following:
- Dog Grooming Public Liability Insurance: This provides you with financial protection if a claim is made that you, an employee or a dog has harmed someone or damaged their property.
- Employers’ Liability: If you employ someone, whether paid or voluntary, you legally need to have this insurance in place. This will help you to pay legal fees, damages and compensation if an employee claims that they were injured or made ill while carrying out work for you.
- Product Liability: If a client claims that a product you have supplied has injured them or their dog, or damaged their property, this insurance cover can help you to pay both legal costs and damages.
When deciding on which insurance to get, make sure you also think about how your dog grooming services will be delivered. For instance, will you have a mobile operation or will you be operating from a premises or your home? Additional insurance for commercial premises and your equipment may need to be considered too.
You should also check what grooming activities, such as clipping, nail cutting and teeth cleaning, will be covered under the policy as there may be exclusions.
Do I need Pet Groomer Insurance?
Unless you employ people to work in your dog grooming business, there is no legal obligation to get insurance for your dog grooming business.
However, it can give both you and your clients valuable peace of mind. This is because you are working in a position of trust – your clients are handing over a member of their family into your care. Once in your custody, you are then responsible for their pets and any harm that they could cause to other people, dogs or property.
With insurance in place, you have vital financial protection should something go wrong. A dog may run out of a door and into the road, a shampoo you use could cause an allergic reaction, or a client could even slip and hurt themselves on a wet floor in your business premises. Without financial protection you could face expensive damages and compensation costs, not to mention legal fees.
How much does Dog Grooming Insurance cost?
The cost of Dog Grooming Business Insurance depends on several factors.
These include the size of your business and its turnover, the level of cover you are looking for, the number of employees you have and your business postcode. This is because some locations may be deemed as higher risk than others. For instance, there may be a high crime rate in the area.
