Healthy Paws | Pet Insurance Review

We did a lot of research for our giant schnauzer, Greg, when choosing pet insurance. We landed on Healthy Paws after a few people we knew recommended it and reading great reviews on the company. It was the best choice we’ve made with our pup so far. He’s very mischievous and somehow lands himself in the puppy hospital every other month. Healthy paws processed the claims quickly and has never pushed back about the services he receives when it comes to paying for his vet bill. Healthy paws differs from other pet insurances in the way that they do not require a second vet’s opinion before a service is rendered, has no maximums, you can go to whichever vet you please, and has no complex spread sheet you have to read when trying to figure out what they will or will not cover. If you don’t think you need pet insurance you will surely regret it. Healthy paws has paid thousands of dollars of vet bills for us and relieves any stress associated with money while in an already stressful situation when your pet is sick. We don’t normally do reviews often but I honestly feel so strongly about this company we chose to!

Healthy Pets insurance was there when I needed them. My sweet dog Mollie, became very ill. It was comforting to know that the necessary testing and medical treatment she needed would not be hindered due to the financial cost of care. My claims were immediately handled and my reimbursement check was received within a week. I also received a sweet follow up email from Healthy Paws to see how my sweet Mollie was doing in her recovery. I am so glad I found this pet insurance company for my fur babies!

Don't use them. They fight you on everything, don't include any explanation and try to short change you at every turn. I signed up for $52/month, $250 deductible, 80% reimbursement policy. I thought it was pretty expensive but if she has to go to the pet hospital I thought it would be worth it. Three weeks after my insurance started, my puppy started pooping blood so we took her to the ER. Between the intro exam, that visit, and the follow up, I spent $835. They reimbursed (against deductible mind you) $114. They provided no notification of this, but when I dug into the claims and then called, they said the ER visit was due to "pre-existing" conditions. I canceled my service and I recommend you don't sign up with them. Not worth it.

Our Boykin Spaniel who we love dearly has a terrible habit of ingesting weird things. Luckily he usually expels them one way or another😳. This time though he stopped eating and became lethargic. I ended up taking him to the Emergency Vet for Xrays then a Barium swallow test. Luckily he did not have an obstruction so when we took him home we had piece of mind and some antibiotics! Healthy Paws covered the claim electronically with no hesitation and also followed up to see how Gus was doing. I highly recommend Healthy Paws for piece of mind for your family pet!

At the recommendation of friends and veterinarians we obtained pet insurance for our dog when he was just a puppy (he was and is healthy but we were advised to do so in case of any accidents/unexpected medical needs etc.). After reviewing multiple companies we chose Healthypaws and we are very happy that we did. Their website if very user friendly and i iis extremely easy to upload a claim. Users are provided with a response and explanation of payment etc in a very timely manner and ,if appropriate, reimbursement is provided in a very timely manner as well. The staff is very caring, they are truly pet people, and they take time to check in on your loved one. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for pet insurance.
