Spot Pet Insurance expands to Canada
Spot Pet Insurance announced the availability of its product in Canada. Policies offered by Spot are underwritten by Northbridge General Insurance Corporation and administered by PTZ Insurance Services.
Spot was founded in 2019 to provide pet insurance in the United States through United States Fire Insurance Company, a Crum & Forster affiliate. Spot announced dog trainer Cesar Millan as its chairman when it first started, but the company no longer has an exclusive affiliation with Cesar Milan and is set to disclose a broader relationship with influencers.
Hi there! Spot no longer has an exclusive relationship with Cesar Milan, however we are preparing to announce a broader relationship with influencers.
