Our Philosophy

We launched our pet insurance cover after listening to thousands of pet owners. As a result, our insurance has features that are new to the market and address the gaps in traditional coverage.

Our rapid growth has seen co-founder Akhona Ngwane (CEO) build a team spanning three offices, acquiring leading providers to ensure Petcovered® remains the gold standard.

Petcovered® is proudly underwritten by Genric Insurance, ensuring financial stability and peace of mind for every claim.
