The popularity of pet insurance has surged in recent years. According to the North American Pet Health Insurance Association (NAPHIA), the pet insurance sector in North America experienced a growth rate of 27.5% in 2020. This growth is driven by rising veterinary costs and the increasing number of pet owners who view their pets as family members.
With 70% of U.S. households owning a pet, the demand for pet-related benefits is substantial. Employees are looking for benefits packages that reflect their lifestyles and values. Pet insurance is a unique benefit that resonates with many employees, providing them with financial security and peace of mind.
Unexpected veterinary bills can be a major financial burden. A single emergency vet visit can cost anywhere from $800 to $1,500, with some treatments costing even more . By offering pet insurance, employers can help alleviate this financial stress for their employees. Fetch Pet Insurance provides comprehensive coverage that includes accidents, illnesses and preventive care, ensuring pets receive the best possible care without straining their owners' finances.

Pet insurance is a unique benefit that can set employers apart, making them more attractive to potential hires and helping retain existing employees.
Offering pet insurance can also have a positive impact on company culture. It shows that the employer cares about the holistic well-being of their employees, including their pets. This can lead to higher employee morale and a more collaborative and supportive work environment. A positive company culture not only helps in retaining employees but also attracts new talent who value a supportive and caring work environment.
