I wish I signed up with Healthy Paws first!

I wrote a review yesterday but I never mentioned what insurance company I started with. After rescuing a puppy I immediately got insurance and picked Nationwide. I never looked into any other companies I just thought it was a company that everyone knows and they would be the best . I remembered the saying " Nationwide is on your side" so how could I go wrong. They were a known name so I felt comfortable with this company. At 7 months my puppy needed hip surgery which was so devastating to us at any age but especially a 7 month old puppy. Needless to say Nationwide made everything harder. They wouldn't cover anything until I was with the company for a year and they were very difficult with everything. They kept needing mire stuff from the vet and myself only to deny something that should have been covered if you're with the right insurance company. When I spoke with them after I paid for 2 surgeries myself I wanted to switch to the top policy Nationwide had to offer. However they would not allow me to because my dog had surgery at 7 months so basically they wouldn't let me pay for the top policy. I felt like I was being punished for my puppy needing surgery. I was so heart broken going through this with my puppy and so frustrated with this insurance company. I called Healthy Paws and they were so wonderful and caring. They made this process of getting insurance easy and paid for the next 2 surgeries after receiving the claims with no questions asked. I just wish I would have gone with Healthy paws from the beginning. Not only do they pay you fast after receiving your claim but they ckeck up on your animal afterwards to see how she's doing. Needless to say Nationwide is not on your side but Healthy Paws is for sure!! I hope I never need to submit another claim but if I do I know Healthy Paws will be there for us. Best company ever!

Healthy Paw Pet Insurance was so amazing when my Bo got hit by a car, they made a horrible situation less stressful

I had so much more to worry about then money when my dear baby got hit and broke both his front legs. Healthy Pet was there, so easy to deal with and so caring always checking in on my guy. Why wouldnt you carried pet insurance with Healthy Pet, pray you never need it but when you do you will be relieved you have it.

The Best!

I just sent a review but I really wanted to elaborate on our story with insurance. we adopted a puppy at 10 weeks old and I immediately got insurance for her. I picked a different company and all was fine. About 7 months later my puppy needed surgery for her hip and the company I had would not pay for any surgery until I had the insurance company for a year. I wasn't going to make my puppy wait three months for surgery because it was painful so I paid out of pocket and never was reimbursed. After this experience I switched insurance companies and I am so happy that I did. Heathy Paws is great and they make the whole experience easier on you not harder like the previous insurance company. Now my dog will be three and Im so glad I switched Insurance companies. Like I said in my other review I tell everyone I know who asks or has an animal that Healthy Paws is the best!!

I recommend Healthy Paws to everyone. They are wonderful!

I am very happy with this company. They review your claims right away and send payments fast. I recommend them to everyone I see who has animals. My dog had knee surgery 2 weeks ago and I received payment in one week after surgery. Best company!

We couldn't ask for a better Pet Insurance Company!

My sweet Pug, Buddy, just turned 12 in December and we have been with Healthy Paws since he was 6. They have been with us with every twist and turn of his health. We are so glad that we picked the right Pet Insurance Company! They really care about our boy. They make it so easy to file a claim and to get reimbursed. He's had a few surgeries over the years and they always send an email, asking how he's doing, which is so nice! We have just been delighted that they have enabled us to give our boy the care that he has deserved over the years. I would not hesitate in recommending Healthy Paws Pet Insurance to anyone, in fact, I do recommend them to everyone, because they are that good!
