Support For Dog With Liver Disease

Our dog Bella has been facing liver challenges since last year, and Healthy Paws Pet Insurance has supported us every step of the way through this incredibly difficult journey. During such an emotional and stressful time, having reliable coverage we could count on made all the difference. Knowing Bella was covered gave us peace of mind to focus on what truly mattered, her care and comfort, without the added financial worry. We are deeply grateful for the support and highly recommend Healthy Paws to any pet parent who wants reassurance that if the unexpected happens, their pet will be protected. Thank you for being there for Bella.

Healthy Paws saved my dog‘s life

Healthy Paws saved my dog‘s life. That’s not an exaggeration. When faced with huge bills for life-saving surgery, the only thing that allowed me to go through with it was knowing that Healthy Paws was going to reimburse me. After submitting the invoices they paid up according to their policy with no questions asked. I couldn’t be happier with them.

Great Experience!

We have had Healthy Paws Pet Insurance since our dog was just 8 weeks old. Aside from minor issues over the past 6½ years, she’s been incredibly healthy — until two weeks ago. I noticed a bright pink dot in the center of one of her rear teeth. A quick check suggested it could be a cracked tooth with visible pulp and possible abscess. Our family vet confirmed it was very likely an abscessed, cracked tooth with exposed pulp. We were able to get in with a canine dental specialist within 48 hours. The treatment required a triple root canal. We put down a $4,900 deposit the morning of the procedure and ultimately paid $5,200 out-of-pocket that day. It was stressful — both medically and financially — but everything went smoothly, and we brought our girl home that evening. I submitted the claim to Healthy Paws the next day. While I’ll be honest that my experience with phone customer service was not particularly helpful (I spoke to two representatives who referred me back to my policy for clarification), the email communication and claims process were excellent. Within 24 hours, I received an email requesting our primary vet’s information and health records, which were handled directly between Healthy Paws and our veterinarian. Within 48 hours, we received our Explanation of Benefits showing $4,500 of the $5,200 was covered. Another 48 hours later, the reimbursement was directly deposited into my bank account. We are extremely pleased with the coverage and the speed of reimbursement. When faced with a $5,000+ unexpected dental emergency, the insurance worked exactly as we hoped it would. We’ve since been contacted by other pet insurers, but based on our experience and long history with Healthy Paws, we plan to stay with them for the duration of our dog’s life. Highly recommend.

Easy Experience!

Reimbursement was always clear and fast! My cat was with Healthy Paws since he was a kitten and he's 5yr now. I enjoy this journey with Healthy Paws!
