From just €23.17 a month
You love what you do – helping pets stay safe and giving their owners total peace of mind. But when you run a professional microchipping business, the unexpected can happen. A nervous pup might react unpredictably, a client might claim your advice was incorrect, or your expensive scanner could get damaged between appointments. That is where solid insurance comes in, giving you the confidence to focus on the animals you care for.
At CoverMy, we make getting the right protection for your pet microchipping business simple and stress-free. No jargon, no fuss, just straightforward cover designed for independent implanters, veterinary teams, and pet care professionals in the Republic of Ireland.
Why do I need dog microchipping insurance?
While you are highly skilled at handling and microchipping pets, accidents can happen to anyone. A dog in your care might experience unexpected swelling requiring emergency vet treatment, or a pet owner might claim your work caused their animal harm. You could also face a situation where your essential equipment is stolen while you travel. Without insurance, the cost of vet bills, equipment replacement, or legal fees could come directly out of your pocket.
Think of it as your business’s safety net. It protects your finances and shows your clients that you are a true professional who takes their pet’s safety and your work seriously. This peace of mind is priceless, both for you and for the pet owners who trust you.
