Worth it!

We wish we had Healthy Paws for our last dog who was diagnosed with Kidney Disease at six-years-old. We made the decision to obtain pet insurance for our current rescue pup-- and we already know that we made the right decision. The claims process is FAST and EASY! The staff members are always warm, welcoming, respectful, kind and considerate. We have referred multiple people to Healthy Paws based on our appreciation of their excellent service. It is worth it!

Thank God for Healthy Pets!

Vinnie cracked a molar, which left exposed pulp. Our vet referred us to a veterinary dentist, who recommended a root canal and filling on that tooth. The estimate was nearly $2,000. Ouch! Thank God we have had Vinnie enrolled in Healthy Pets for nearly three years. Their claim filing process couldn't be easier...and within several days we had our check in hand! We will never be without Healthy Pets. It is such a reassuring feeling to know we can afford to take care of Vinnie no matter what happens!

Expensive, lack of info on claims

I have received conflicting information on filing a claim. Everytime I call there is a different story. Rates have skyrocketed in 4 years. This is my first experience with pet insurance but after this dog dies I don't know if it was worth it - at least time it doesn't appear to be the case. I have a couple thousand dollars that will not be covered. When I have paid around $32/mo for over 4 years (rounded), that is $1,600, meaning my cost for this policy is almost $4,000.

Consistent and Efficient Life Savers

My dog has had two serious surgeries in the course of his life. Both times he was covered by Healthy Paws and both times we were able to put Basha first as opposed to worrying about the costs of these particularly costly surgeries. The instructions for reimbursement are clear and easy to follow, and I consistently feel like I'm working with a group of people (not a corporation) who genuinely care about providing the service for my pet.

They do what they agreed to do

I have had some substantial claims for my dogs recently and I want to take the opportunity to give Healthy Paws its due. They process claims quickly and fairly and I think that they deserve the recognition as a company that does what they contracted to do.
