General liability (GL) insurance, also known as business or commercial liability insurance, covers claims made by others that arise from normal business operations, including bodily injury, property damage, and non-physical personal injury, such as libel or slander.

General liability insurance is a way to help protect your business and cover your costs if a non-employee gets hurt at your place of business, you or your employees accidentally damage another person’s property, or you harm someone’s reputation.

Why do pet care businesses need general liability insurance?

As a pet care business, there’s always the risk your business could face a claim of bodily injury, property damage, or non-physical personal injury. For example, if a visitor to your business gets hurt and needs medical treatment – say, by slipping on a puddle – your general liability policy can help cover the costs. It can also help pay for repairs and other costs if you damage someone’s else’s property, such as accidentally ripping a hole in a client’s furniture or knocking over a vase.
