Pet insurance is a form of insurance policy to help pet owners manage the financial risks associated with veterinary care. It offers coverage for various expenses that may be incurred due to accidents, diseases, and, in some cases, routine wellness care for pets such as dogs, cats, and sometimes other pet animals. This specialized insurance is similar in structure to human health insurance, with policyholders paying a monthly or annual premium in exchange for coverage, subject to deductibles, co-pays, and policy limits. The rising pet ownership population and inclination toward pet care services are encouraging pet owners to adopt pet insurance services globally. However, a lack of awareness regarding pet insurance policies may impede their adoption by the pet owners. Moreover, the inclusion of various services and the availability of pet insurance policies are expected to encourage their adoption by pet insurance companies worldwide.
