Ask about common exposure areas
Discuss injury to animals or people, property damage, lost keys, care in a sitter’s home, vehicle use and incidents involving client pets.
Read limits and exclusions

COMMON QUESTIONS
Practical answers.
Does general business insurance always cover animals in my care?
Coverage varies. Ask a licensed professional specifically about care, custody and control and every service you provide.
Do I need coverage before taking clients?
Assess and arrange the protections required for your business and location before accepting risk.
Is this insurance advice?
No. This checklist helps organize questions; coverage decisions should be made with qualified providers.
