Yourgi, an all-in-one pet care marketplace, has announced a partnership with Pet Care Insurance (PCI) to provide liability and pet injury coverage to every walker, sitter, and boarder who joins its platform. The collaboration, announced on May 20, 2026, supports Yourgi's nationwide rollout and aims to offer providers comprehensive protection from the moment they take their first booking.
Pet owners use Yourgi to hire local providers for services such as dog walking, in-home visits, and boarding. Through the partnership, coverage is offered to all live Yourgi Pros, ensuring providers can accept work without worrying about gaps in protection. PCI currently covers more than 16,000 pet professionals across the country, offering policies that include general liability, pet protection coverage, veterinarian reimbursement, and optional equipment coverage. Claims covered range from broken bones during a run to allergic reactions, grooming accidents, and swallowed objects.
“Pet care brings real responsibility, and many independent providers work without any safety net,” said Robert Lisiecki, director of marketing operations & strategy at PCI. “We built our program to give people coverage that matches the risks they face during daily work. Yourgi shares that mindset. Their team wants providers to have the tools and protection they need from the moment they take their first booking.”
Yourgi selected PCI to offer a stronger coverage model than what many online platforms currently provide. While other services focus solely on the pet, leaving providers with fewer options when property damage or other incidents occur, Yourgi partnered with PCI to create a single policy covering both the provider and the animals in their care for added protection.
“This partnership supports our goal to raise the standard for local pet care,” said Scott Bramble, President of Yourgi. “People trust our platform with their homes and their pets. Providers deserve the same level of trust from us. Working with PCI makes that possible. They understand the pace, demands and unpredictability of hands-on pet work.”
Both companies will roll out coverage across new and existing markets this month. Providers will see clear policy terms during onboarding and can contact PCI directly for support, claims help, or questions about specific situations they may face on the job.
