Why Employers Are Paying More Attention to Pet Benefits

Today’s workforce is made up of millions of pet-owning households, and pet care concerns are a part of everyday life. APPA says 94 million U.S. households owned a pet in 2025, and SHRM reports that pet insurance is offered by 22% of employers in its 2025 benefits survey, showing that pet-related benefits are already part of the broader total rewards conversation.

When an employee is worried about a pet, that concern does not stay neatly outside the workplace. It affects focus, schedules, and peace of mind. Offering access to GoLexi gives employers a practical way to support pet parents with a benefit that feels current, relevant, and genuinely useful. 

What Employees Receive with GoLexi

GoLexi helps your employees feel less alone when pet questions come up. Instead of guessing, searching online, or immediately trying to schedule in-person care, they can quickly connect with a licensed veterinarian and get guidance on what to do next. 

Virtual Access to Licensed Veterinarians

GoLexi gives employees a simple, convenient way to connect with a licensed veterinarian when questions about their pet come up. Through phone or video calls, employees can get timely guidance without the added stress of trying to immediately schedule in-person care or figure everything out on their own.

For employers, that means offering a benefit that feels modern, practical, and easy to understand. Employees aren’t left sorting through conflicting online information or sitting with uncertainty during the workday. Instead, they have access to professional support that helps them make more informed decisions about their pet’s care in a way that feels accessible and manageable. 

Guidance Beyond Business Hours

A dog may start acting strangely late at night, a cat may show unusual symptoms early in the morning, or an employee may find themselves worrying over the weekend when their regular veterinary office is closed. 

GoLexi helps fill that gap by providing your employees access to support whenever those questions come up, not just during standard business hours. That around-the-clock availability adds real value because it gives employees a resource they can turn to in the moments when stress and uncertainty are often at their highest.

For employers, this means offering a benefit that supports employees in real life, not just on paper. It’s there when schedules are busy, questions happen unexpectedly, and when employees need timely guidance outside the traditional care window.

Support for Everyday Pet Concerns

Not every pet concern is a major emergency, but that doesn’t make it any less stressful for your employee dealing with it. In many cases, employees simply want to know whether a symptom is serious or if they should wait, monitor the situation, or seek in-person care.

GoLexi helps employees talk through many of the questions that come up in everyday pet ownership. That may include symptoms that seem unusual, wellness concerns, behavioral changes, second opinions, or uncertainty around whether an in-person visit is warranted. Having access to that kind of guidance can help employees feel less overwhelmed and better supported in the movement. 

For employers, this adds value by offering a benefit that their employees can actually see themselves using. It’s not abstract. It’s relevant, practical, and tied to situations pet parents regularly face.

Helping Your Employees Know What to Do Next.

One of the most valuable things GoLexi can offer is clarity. When an employee is worried about a pet, the biggest challenge is often not just the concern itself, but the uncertainty around what to do next. Should they keep an eye on things at home? Schedule an appointment? Seek care right away? 

GoLexi helps emplyees move forward with more confidence by giving them professional guidance that makes the next step clearer. That reduces hesitation, lowers stress, and helps employees make decisions with a better understanding of what their pet needs.

For employers, this makes GoLexi especially meaningful as a benefit. It supports employees in moments that feel personal and disruptive, and it helps replace confusion with direction. In many cases, that peace of mind is just as valuable as the convenance of the visit itself. 

A Meaningful Way to Support Your Workforce

Employees remember benefits that make their life easier in the moments that matter. For pet-owning employees, access to veterinary guidance can feel far more personal and immediately useful than a benefit they may never use or fully understand.

GoLexi offers employers a way to provide a benefit that feels thoughtful, modern, and highly relevant to a large and growing segment of the workforce. Pet ownership spans 94 million U.S. households, and NAPHIA reports continued growth in pet-related coverage and services, reflecting strong and sustained consumer demand in this sector.
