Healthy Paws pet insurance – so glad we got it!

We're so glad we elected for pet insurance through Healthy Paws a few years back. Claims are easy to submit, customer service has been wonderful, and checks for the four or five reimbursements we've received to date have arrived within a week of submitting the claim. Above all, we've saved immensely. Our dog had to have unexpected knee surgery last month that cost several thousand dollars; our Healthy Paws policy, as promised, covered eighty percent. Monthly premiums increase as our dog ages, of course, but so far, the peace of mind and savings have been well worth the monthly investment.

Healthy Paws has once again came to my rescue. I have a little yorkie who turns one year on July 24th. She needed surgery and Healthy Paws provided the coverage. I cannot express my gratitude and the compassion that I received from the Healthy Paws staff. Thank you with all my heart. Judy

Healthy Paws is the BEST

Healthy Paws is hands down the best per insurance carrier around. They honor their 90% coverage diligently and with no haggling or attempts to deny claims. We have been using them for our two dogs for the majority of their lives (13 and 11) and HP has been there honoring their coverage for every medical issues large and small. I cannot recommend them enough

I Recommend this Pet Insurance.

I Recommend this Pet Insurance. I obtained a Healthy Paws insurance policy when I got my dog at 12 weeks old. She has spent the majority of her life in great health, however, two years ago she was diagnosed with a heart murmur. Healthy Paws has paid all claims (after the $250 yearly deductible was satisfied) in a timely fashion. When she was first diagnosed and I started filing claims, the turnaround time for processing payment was within a week to ten days. Now it is within two days. I've been very happy with this company and hope to continue a happy relationship with it. A few things to know are that smaller dogs have lower premiums than bigger dogs, the premiums go up over time, and there is the $250.00 yearly deductible which must be satisfied before the 80% reimbursement occurs. I started 12 years ago with a monthly premium of $35.00 for my Boston Terrier mix and now the premium is $113.00. In addition, and the company was pretty clear when I obtained the policy, pre-existing conditions are not covered. None of this was overly surprising to me but I wanted to make a full disclosure to anyone who is looking for a few extra details before they buy. It's definitely beneficial to get the policy for a young, healthy puppy and keep it as they age.

Monthly Cost
