Frequently Asked Questions
No. Reimbursement under the PawSpace Assurance is generally paid out of our own pocket—though we reserve the right to refer a claim to our insurance carriers when necessary or appropriate.
The PawSpace Assurance exists to fill the gap when the responsible party—usually the pet care provider—is unable or unwilling to pay for costs arising from damage or injury attributable to their negligence, and when insurance is not available. It is a contractual agreement from PawSpace to protect its users, enforceable in accordance with the PawSpace Assurance Terms and Conditions.
The process may vary. We’ll work as quickly as possible with hopes of resolving all claims within 14 days of receiving all appropriate documentation.
Refunds and reimbursement are considered on a case-by-case basis. When it comes to refunds for services, PawSpace requires that owners and pet care providers attempt to work together before filing a reimbursement claim.
We’re here for both pet owners and pet care providers, and we take concerns from both parties seriously. Safety is a top priority for us, and results for parties found at fault can range from coaching to removal from the community. We’ll always do our best to come to a fair resolution.
