Frequently asked questions about pet injury coverage
Is pet injury protection the same as pet insurance?
+
No, pet insurance helps cover the cost of veterinary care to keep your pets healthy. Often, pet insurance has deductibles and maximums.
What if I’m not at-fault in the accident?
+
If someone else causes a car accident and your pet is injured, the other party’s liability coverage would cover the medical expenses of your pet or car.
