ASPCA | Pet Insurance Review

My dog had a significant case of Kennel Cough and we had to bring him to our vet. There were a few things that she had to look at and it wound up costing us a few hundred dollars. I am glad we had the ASPCA pet insurance because it did cover a significant amount of the total bill (after the deductable was paid). The ASPCA pet insurance plan is great as long as its not a pre-existing issue. Our dog has an ongoing ear issue due to a food allergy that we had treated by our vet prior to getting the insurance and when we submitted a claim for that they rejected it. I would suggest that if you buy a puppy/kitten, and can afford it, to purchase a pet insurance plan but definitely do your homework first.

Having pet insurance gives me confidence for the future of my beloved Daisy. She's middle aged and I worry about the aging process but having ASPCA lessens my concern. Two things I would like: more provision for preventative care -faster turn around time for payments- Most Docs want payment up front and I'm on a fixed income -I take care of Daisy but I have to cut back on my own meds(and I'm 80) until my claim is paid.

I have five cats so having pet insurance is important to me. You never know when something will happen so having pet insurance really helps. I had one of my cats needing medical attention that was beyond just routine care in the past few months. This was very expensive but with the insurance it made the whole experience more affordable.

I decided to get pet insurance for my dog Daisy because with her being a mixed small breed dog (Yorkie/Maltese), I had heard that small dogs get sick a lot. Well my ASPCA insurance has helped me out tremendously. I have had it for a year and I can't count the amount of times I have filed claims. Daisy had to get spayed as well as getting a small tumor removed from her right paw. She has been in for her annual exams, shots and some unexpected visits as well and ASPCA has covered all of the items. I have been pleased with my experience with them. Customer Service has been super friendly.

I have had Hartville/PetsHealth insurace for about 3-4 years. I adopted Max, my minature poodle, from the animal shelter when he was 8 y.o. Max became ill the first week I adopted him and then again shortly thereafter, and I knew with a senior dog there would be additional medical problems but but since I fell in love with Max the moment I held him, I knew I would need and want to ensure he got the best medical care possible and I would need health insurance for him. I researched the other companies and felt Hartville would be our best option. Max has become sick several times and having health insurance has been a great help. Even with the quarterly premium, this insurance basically pays for itself when ofn the reimbursed for vet treatments. Max recently had surgery for the removal of a lump on his groin at the tune of $700. The insurance coverage was great and helped out so much with covering the cost surgery. I didn't have to worry about Max's surgery and how I was going to pay his vet bill. I would recommend health insurance for any pet parent regardless of the age of your dog.
