Best out of 3 I've Tried

I've tried 3 pet insurance carriers, and hands down AKC Pet Insurance is the best! I have no complaints! They are extremely helpful over the phone and always polite customer service. The add-on wellness options sold me on their service and it's worth the cost! I have 2 corgis (2 years old and 6 months) and always try to utilize "preventative medicine" (vaccinations, annual check-ups, heart worm and flea and ticks medications, etc.) and their wellness add-on options definitely make all the difference with vet bills. Most recently, my husband and I bought our first house and moved to a new address in April. In May, I had taken my older corgi to her annual check-up but had forgotten to submit my claim in amongst unpacking until I had another claim to submit in August when she suddenly had a gastric ulcer and stopped holding down food. I got reimbursements back on both fairly quickly (within about 7 business days) and have hit my deductible! It's also wonderful to be able to add my younger corgi even though she's not AKC registered. 10 out of 10! Thank you AKC Pet Insurance!!

3 pets with AKC Insurance - and they never fail me!!

I have been with AKC Pet Insurance since 2008- they have insured many of my dogs for years. I would never consider changing to another carrier. They always have my pets best interest at heart. They really hire the best people ~ when you call in they are attentive and caring. They make suggestions and never get upset with the amount of questions you might have. Always a great experience. AKC Insurance you have my business for life.

AKC Pet Insurance is truly the best pet…

AKC Pet Insurance is truly the best pet insurance around. They care about your pets. They issue reimbursements on claims quickly, and are always able to answer questions. The customer service staff is always super friendly and kind. I just lost my English bulldog, and when I called to let AKC know, they were very empathetic, advised me to take my time submitting medical claim forms and invoices, and sent a very lovely card with hand written sentiments from the staff. I used them for twelve years with my other bully, and will always use AKC for pet insurance.
