Wagmo

Wagmo is a pet healthcare company founded in 2017 that sells pet insurance and wellness plans, distributed mainly as an employee benefit through employers. Its offering rests on a technical stack spanning insurtech, mobile app development, digital health platforms and tech-enabled benefits administration. The Wagmo platform and accompanying mobile app underpin plan delivery and claims, and are designed around value and flexibility for pet parents.

The product line comprises accident-and-illness insurance plans with 100% reimbursable policies; standalone wellness plans covering routine preventive care such as annual vet visits, grooming and vaccinations, with no waiting periods, so benefits are available immediately after activation; and a workplace pet healthcare benefit, which employers add to compensation packages along the lines of human healthcare benefits, as a tool for attracting and retaining staff.

Wagmo positions its benefit against a market statistic that 70% of employees are pet parents. The company states it is the only female-founded and operated pet healthcare company in the market, and describes its mission as making responsible pet parenting easier and more accessible, with an emphasis on proactive and preventive care and on supporting pets' well-being year-round. Industry verticals include pet healthcare, pet insurance, employee benefits and insurance. Funding details and geographic presence are not disclosed.
