Wagmo, the pet healthcare benefit trusted by leading employers, today announced a new partnership with bswift LLC, a leading innovator in employee benefits technology and administration serving more than 16 million lives nationwide. Beginning November 3, 2025, employers using bswift can choose to offer Wagmo pet healthcare benefits, including Wagmo wellness, insurance, and VETalk - a 24/7 televet service - with exclusive discounted pricing. Through this collaboration, bswift customers will be able to offer employees affordable access to Wagmo's pet wellness plans, which reimburse everyday pet care like annual exams, vaccines, grooming, and more, along with 24/7 televet support and discounts on services like pet sitting and medication.

Pet benefits are quickly becoming essential for employers.

In the workplace, a 2024 Wagmo survey found that 75 percent of employees miss time each year for pet care and 65 percent say pet benefits are important when considering a job offer. For employers, the payoff is clear: 94 percent of Wagmo members say they would be disappointed if the benefit went away, and 87 percent report it makes them more loyal to their company. By partnering with bswift, Wagmo is making it easier for employers to deliver benefits that employees value and use every day. "By embedding Wagmo pet healthcare benefits directly into the bswift platform, we can support even more pet parent employees across the country," said Christie Horvath, CEO of Wagmo. "Everyday pet care is an important part of family life, and we're proud to help employers strengthen retention and engagement with benefits that truly matter to their people, delivered seamlessly through their bswift experience."
