Roamly Launches Nationwide Pet Insurance Product

Roamly, an embedded insurtech for travel enthusiasts with unique RV insurance offerings, announced it is marking new territory with the launch of its pet insurance product. Roamly will market pet insurance to all U.S. pet owners, including customers of Outdoorsy, an online recreational vehicle rental and outdoor travel marketplace.

“Since Outdoorsy’s inception in 2014, we’ve noticed a glaring disparity in the amount of Outdoorsy guests opting to hit the road with their pets and the percentage of those pets who are covered by insurance,” says Roamly’s Chief Insurance Officer Aaron Ammar, noting that more than 78 percent of Americans opt to travel with their pets each year, while a 2021 Milliman report estimates only 2 percent of pets are insured.

“Our new Pet Insurance product helps travelers enjoy peace of mind when bringing their pets along for the ride, knowing they have coverage as they wander,” says Ammar.

Roamly unlocks the ability for American pet owners to purchase the right insurance for their pets. Information on the pet insurance product offered through Roamly can be found online at roamly.com/pet-insurance.

According to the most recent RV Industry Association survey, 72 million Americans plan to go RVing over the next year, up from 61 million in 2020. As the number of Americans hitting the road continues to grow, so does the number of travelers taking their four-legged friends— and the travel industry is responding by making more accommodations for pet owners.

Through the Roamly Pet Insurance program, pet parents can select plans for dogs and cats that include coverage for exam fees, diagnostics, and treatments for accidents, illnesses, cancer, hereditary conditions, behavioral issues and dental disease.

Pet parents can add preventive care coverage for an additional cost to help cover pet care necessities such as vaccines, flea, tick and heartworm medication, and dental cleanings. Other coverage offerings include wellness exams and screenings.
