Why us

Why dog groomers choose us

Grooming is all we do

DogGroomingInsurance.co.uk arranges insurance for professional dog groomers, grooming salons and grooming businesses — not a generic trade policy with grooming bolted on.

Cover built around the real risks

The claims groomers get are grooming claims: a nick from clippers, a reaction after de-matting, a quick on a nail. Treatment risk and care, custody and control are part of the policy.

Specialists on the phone

A UK team who understand salons, vans and home-based setups, and who will explain the wording before you buy.

Trusted by the industry

Recommended by leading groomers including Colin Taylor and Abbie Toogood.
