Healthy Paws has always been an amazing pet insurance coverage provider. Fast to reimburse.

This is the best insurance company for pets. amazing service and kind and caring customer service - they always ask about our dog Champ who has been ill for the past year and survived cancer. It is now a year later and sick again and we cannot manage without their insurance reimbursements and he is getting the best care thanks to the financial support of this company. We are loyal customers and would recommend this company to anyone and our own oncologist has her dogs insurance with Healthy Paws - talk about a testimonial That says it all.

Dear Healthy Paws Team, I am writing to express my appreciation for your excellent service. The photo-submission process within the app is seamless, and the efficiency of your direct deposit reimbursements is consistently impressive. Thank you for providing the support and peace of mind that allows me to ensure my dog receives the best possible care. I highly recommend Healthy Paws insurance.

Healthy Paws is a great pet insurance company. We have never had any problems being reimbursed for expenses when our sweet baby has been in need for a veterinary care. Unfortunately he needed a surgery on his Birthday and Healthy Paws was quick paying for the expenses we had after the procedure. He is healing well and we look forwards to celebrating his birthday when is completely recovered.

I enrolled my Boston Terrier with Healthy Paws in 2019 and was a loyal customer for 7 years, paying premiums faithfully with a 90% reimbursement rate and $250 deductible; the coverage I was sold on at enrollment. At my dogs 2026 renewal, Healthy Paws informed me that my coverage was being unilaterally downgraded to 70% reimbursement and a $500 deductible. No negotiation, no exceptions, no alternatives. On a significant claim, that difference exceeds $1,000 out of pocket. When I disputed this, their customer service responded in writing with two reasons: my dogs age (7) and the ‘long-term sustainability of their program.’ Not my claims history. Not my payment record. His age and their bottom line. This is coercion by design. They advertise lifetime coverage and no caps on claims but what they don’t tell you at enrollment is that your reimbursement rate and deductible will be systematically reduced as your pet ages (in my dogs case 7yrs), precisely when pre-existing conditions develop and switching insurers becomes impossible. That is deceptive advertising. By the time your pet needs care, you have nowhere to go and no leverage. You are not a customer, you are trapped. The point of pet insurance is to have coverage when your pet needs it most, which is when they get older. Healthy Paws reduces your coverage exactly at that point, and they will tell you so in writing. Do not enroll your pet with them, or you risk paying years of premiums only to find your coverage reduced precisely when your pet needs it most, which is the entire reason you signed up for insurance in the first place.
