PetWorks for Teams
The pet benefit your people actually need.
Two thirds of your employees have a pet, and every one of them will eventually face a hard week because of it. Give your team a funded allowance they can spend with 4,766 vetted pet professionals, in all 50 states, by video or in person.
THE GAP IN YOUR BENEFITS
Your people are already dealing with this on company time.
An employee whose dog was just diagnosed is not working that afternoon. An employee who lost a pet on Sunday is not themselves for two weeks. An employee with a reactive rescue is quietly turning down every request to come into the office. None of this shows up in a benefits report, and none of it is covered by anything you offer today.
Pet insurance is the usual reflex, and it solves a different problem. It reimburses catastrophic vet bills. It does nothing on the Tuesday the diagnosis lands, nothing in the weeks after a loss, and nothing for the behavior issue that is quietly shaping where someone works. We cover the part insurance was never built for, which is why teams usually run us alongside a pet insurance offering rather than instead of one.
WHAT THE ALLOWANCE COVERS
Employees choose their own pro and book directly. You never see what they booked or who they talked to.
Pet loss & end-of-life support
Grief counselors who work exclusively with pet parents, plus in-home euthanasia and hospice professionals. Pet parents come to PetWorks during the hardest week of their pet's life, and in the weeks after it. This is the part no one on your team currently knows how to help with.
Training & behavior
Certified trainers and behaviorists for separation anxiety, reactivity, and the adjustment problems that follow every change to a work schedule. Often the difference between an employee who can come into the office and one who can't.
Nutrition & wellness
Clinical pet nutritionists, senior care planning, and wellness consults. The everyday use of the benefit, so it earns its place long before anything goes wrong.
HOW IT WORKS
You set the allowance
Pick an annual amount per employee and fund it in one invoice. Allowances typically start at $250 per employee. You choose who gets it. No census file, no monthly premium.
Employees get their own balance
They activate an account with their work email and the allowance is already there. Nothing to claim, no receipts to submit, no reimbursement to chase.
They book who they want
The allowance comes off their balance at checkout. You get usage reporting in aggregate. Unused dollars stay on that employee's balance and can't be moved to someone else.
WHY PETWORKS
One network that actually reaches your whole team.
Most pet perks are local partnerships, which means they work for the half of your company that happens to live near them. Every service here is available in all 50 states, and most can be delivered by video.
Every pro is vetted
Identity verification through Stripe, displayed credentials such as CPDT-KA, NAPPS, PSI, and Red Cross Pet First Aid, and visible booking history on every listing.
Background checks through Checkr
Pros can carry a Background Checked badge, so your employees can see the standard a pro has met before they book.
Remote-first, nationwide
Grief, nutrition, training, and behavior sessions all happen by video or phone. An employee in rural Montana gets the same benefit as one in Manhattan.
Backed by Care Coverage
Secure payments, dispute resolution, refunds when a pro cancels, and a real concierge team your employees can talk to. Learn more about Care Coverage.
EASY TO ADOPT
It isn't insurance, so none of the hard parts apply.
No enrollment window
There's no carrier and no plan year, so you can launch this in the middle of a quarter instead of waiting for the next one.
No plan administration
No ERISA plan document, no claims process, no eligibility file to maintain. Employees activate themselves.
Employee privacy by default
You see aggregate usage, never who booked what. Grief support in particular should never route through HR.
A cost you can budget
You pick the per-person allowance and who gets it. That's the invoice. No one can spend past their own cap, and unused dollars stay with that employee rather than being moved or refunded.
For benefits brokers & PEOs
Add PetWorks to your benefits portfolio
Give your clients a nationwide pet care benefit without adding another insurance plan, claims process, or administrative burden.
- Something new to bring to a renewal. Pet benefits are a category most of your clients have never been pitched, and it isn't a line item they're already price-shopping.
- No carrier, no appointment, no licensing. This isn't an insurance product, so there's nothing to get appointed for and no commission structure to negotiate.
- Sits alongside pet insurance, not against it. If a client already offers a pet insurance product, this covers what that product was never built to cover.
