General Liability

Yearly Policy Limit: $2,000,000 (included)

Yearly Policy Limit: $5,000 (included)

Pets are your passion. A part of your job is keeping them protected. Also known as Animal Bailee, Pet Protection Coverage is essential for all pet professionals. It covers your business if you are legally liable for injuries pets sustain while in your care, custody, or control.

Yearly Policy Limit: $2,500 (included)

Sometimes an emergency happens, and you need to take a pet to the veterinarian while you’re on the job. Those trips aren’t cheap. Included in your policy, Veterinarian Reimbursement helps with those out-of-pocket, unexpected expenses.

Also known as Inland Marine Insurance, Equipment and Inventory Coverage protects and pays for equipment, inventory, or supplies that suffer damage or theft.

Comparing Employee Dishonesty Coverage & Bonding

PCI’s employee dishonesty coverage is similar to a bond, but there may be some key differences to consider.

Employee dishonesty coverage:

  • Can be purchased in the same transaction
  • Doesn’t run credit checks
  • Provides $10,000 per occurrence and $25,000 aggregate coverage

Bonds may differ from our dishonesty coverage by:

  • Checking your credit during the application process
  • Having a “Conviction Claus;” Often bonds won’t pay on claims unless there is a conviction
  • Many require you to reimbursement the bonding company after a claim is paid
