Why Dog Sitter Insurance Matters (And Why I Have It)

When you leave your dog in someone else’s care, you’re doing more than hiring help, you’re trusting someone with a member of your family. That’s why I believe professional pet sitting should come with more than just experience and good intentions — it should come with real protection.

At Speckled Snout Sitting, I’m proud to be fully insured through Pet Care Insurance (PCI). This isn’t just a formality, but a commitment to safety, accountability, and professionalism.

Here’s what that means for you as a pet parent:

• General Liability Coverage: If an accident occurs during a visit, you won’t be left footing the bill.

• Veterinary Bill Reimbursement: If your pet is accidentally injured in my care, this coverage helps cover vet costs.

• Property Damage Coverage: Things happen. This protection gives you peace of mind if something goes wrong in your home.

• Lost Key and Pet Transport Coverage: From misplaced keys to car accidents while transporting your dog, this policy backs up the unexpected.

Rover and similar platforms don’t always guarantee this kind of comprehensive, direct coverage from sitters. But I do… because loving dogs isn’t enough. Being prepared, protected, and professional is what sets Speckled Snout Sitting apart.
