From bites and scratches to slips and repetitive strain injuries, running a grooming salon involves more hazards than most people think. That’s why dog grooming insurance quotes should always include workers’ compensation coverage. At Gild Insurance, we help dog groomers get fast, accurate quotes for the protection they need, including coverage for the people who help keep tails wagging.
What Makes Workers’ Comp Essential in Dog Grooming Insurance Quotes?
Dog grooming is hands-on, physical work, and injuries are not uncommon. If you have employees on staff, workers’ compensation is essential to protect against:
- Employee injuries like bites, slips, or strains
- Lost wages while recovering
- Medical bills from work-related accidents
- Employer liability for workplace injuries
Without it, you risk paying out-of-pocket or facing a lawsuit. Groomers who work with sharp tools, heavy dogs, and unpredictable animals can’t afford to skip this coverage. It’s more than a policy—it’s a financial safety net.
Included in Your Dog Grooming Insurance Quotes
When you request dog grooming insurance quotes through Gild, we tailor your plan to your team, tools, and daily risks. A typical quote may include:
- General liability insurance
- Professional liability (for grooming errors)
- Business property or equipment coverage
- Workers’ compensation
We simplify the process, so you know exactly what you’re paying for—and why it matters. Schedule a call with a Gild agent today for your tailored quote.
When Workers’ Comp Becomes Legally Required
Most states require workers’ comp as soon as you hire an employee, even part-time. It’s not just a legal box to check—it’s a vital safeguard for your team and your business.
Don’t wait for an accident to reveal gaps in your protection. Get ahead by asking for dog grooming insurance quotes that include workers’ comp upfront.
