Pumpkin is a pet care company on a mission to make the best pet care possible fur all. Pumpkin was started after its founders took a look at other pet insurance options on the market and found that some were missing one crucial component – preventative care. Pumpkin believes all parents should be able to give their pets medical care if they’re sick or hurt, and preventive care that keeps them healthy throughout their lives.

Great Insurance Company to do business with.
I've had pumpkin pet insurance for 3 years, for my German Shepherd, it has been a worthwhile investment since day one. Veterinarian bills seem equally expensive as Medical Doctors for humans.
Pumpkin reimbursements are quick, hassle free and pay up to 90% of the bill. I highly recommend them to any pet owner.

Pumpkin Pet Insurance Helped Us Care for Our Cat When It Mattered Most
When our cat Chico started dealing with a mysterious ear infection, it quickly became a long and stressful journey. Between multiple vet visits and appointments with a pet dermatologist, we were determined to find answers and make sure he wasn’t suffering. As a young married couple, Chico truly means the world to my husband and I and we want to do everything we can to keep him happy and healthy. Veterinary care can add up quickly, especially when you are trying to get to the bottom of something complicated. That is where Pumpkin Pet Insurance has made such a difference for us. Knowing we have support has helped take a huge financial weight off our shoulders while we focus on what really matters, getting Chico the care he needs. Pets are family and no animal deserves to suffer through a mysterious illness without help. Thanks to Pumpkin, we have been able to pursue the tests, specialists, and treatments needed to keep Chico comfortable while we search for answers, and it has given us peace of mind during a difficult time while allowing us to focus on loving and caring for our sweet boy.
