    Who is protected

    What we cover and do

    Damage to others' property

    Your dog damages or soils someone else's things, for example a friend's carpet or a phone. We cover repair or cleaning costs and valid claims, subject to the policy limits and terms.

    Injury to a person

    Your dog causes an accident that hurts someone, for example a cyclist falls after being startled. We cover medical costs, compensation, and loss of earnings.

    Damage in rented homes

    Your dog damages a rental unit or its fixtures, for example a chewed door frame or a ruined sofa in a holiday home. Tenant damage is covered, premium plans extend cover for more rented items.

    Incidents off leash

    Cover even when your dog is off leash, if allowed by law.

    Worldwide incidents

    You take your dog on a trip and something goes wrong in your holiday rental. Claims are covered worldwide during travel, subject to local law and your policy terms and limits.

    Claim payouts up to €50 million

    We pay valid third party claims up to 50 million euros per incident. That includes property damage and bodily injury, settled under German law and your chosen plan.

    Legal defense for liability

    If a claim is unfounded, we defend you and your dog against it. We pay legal costs and act as your legal shield during the claims process.

    Repairs and cleaning

    We arrange and pay for reasonable repair or cleaning after covered damage, for example a deep clean for a stained carpet or fixing a scratched door frame in a rental.

    Tenant damage handling

    Damage to rented buildings and fixtures is included. Our premium plan covers more rented items, and we coordinate with landlords or hosts to settle the bill quickly.

    SOS Help add-on

    Optional extra, up to 3,000 euros. Pays your dog's vet bills after an attack by an unknown or uninsured dog, search and rescue if lost, and boarding if you are hospitalized.

    Your dog (all breeds)

    All breeds are insurable under this policy.

    Dog sitters and walkers

    Cover extends to people who look after your dog with your consent, for example a friend or a paid sitter. If your dog causes damage while with them, the liability stays insured.

      Do I really need dog liability insurance?

      As the owner you are responsible for any damage your dog causes. One bite or a toppled bike can get very expensive. Dog Liability covers those costs so a bad moment does not drain your savings. It protects you and the people around you. Many landlords expect it, and it keeps travel and daily life simple.

      What does Getsafe Dog Liability cover?

      Your coverage is comprehensive: We cover personal injury and property damage to third parties up to 50 million euros per claim. This also includes damage to rented apartments and their furnishings (rental damages). Your dog is covered worldwide, even without a leash where permitted. Full protection remains even if your dog is with a dog sitter or in dog school.

      What we don't cover: Damage to yourself or your own property, and normal wear and tear.

      Is my dog covered off leash, with a sitter, or at dog school?

      Yes. Off leash incidents are covered, as long as you follow local leash rules. Your dog is covered while with a sitter, walker, or a friend you trust. Training sessions and dog school visits are covered too. Traveling? Your cover goes with you worldwide.

      When does my cover start, is there a waiting period?

      Your cover starts on the policy start date you choose at checkout. There is no cover for events that happened before that date. There is no general waiting time for liability claims once your policy starts. You can see the start date in your documents and in the app.

      How do I file a claim?

      Use the Getsafe app.

      • Open the app, tap Claims
      • Tell us what happened, when and where
      • Add photos, receipts, vet or police reports if you have them
      • Share contact details of the other party

      We confirm next steps and keep you posted in the app. If it is urgent, message us in the chat for quick help.

      Can I insure any breed and more than one dog?

      Yes. All breeds are welcome. You can insure multiple dogs, as long as you name all of them in your policy. That’s important so the coverage fits each animal. Get a quote in about 2 minutes by listing your dogs. After that, you manage everything in the app, from documents to claims.
