Healthy Paws = peace of mind

Healthy Paws = peace of mind. I can feel secure knowing that I can get my dog the care he needs and I'm covered. Healthy Paws is also easy to use and submit claims with. Recommend highly!

Literally a Life Saver

Our wonderful pup, Bean, has struggled mightily with health issues since she we got her at 8 weeks. Both the normal illnesses that dogs struggle with, ear infections, etc. but about 2 years ago she was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease that took both her eyes at the very young age of 3.5. Without our Healthy Paws insurance I don’t know if we couldn’t given her the best treatment. Today she is the happiest, most resilient puppy around and we owe such a debt to Healthy Paws. In addition, the process for reimbursement is so easy and fast I often ask myself why human medical insurance isn’t as easy.! Great company and highly recommended to any pet owner!

I switched to Lemonade

I switched to Lemonade. The reason why - Without any claims filed for 3 years, my premium went up by 70%. Most of all, I experienced difficulties canceling the policy. As instructed, a written cancellation request was submitted but then it wasn't canceled. Instead, i received an email saying that I need to log into my online account to complete the cancel process. I logged in but then it says to submit a written request by email. God..I had to call the customer service and finally connected with them after a 10 minutes wait.

Buyer beware - 50%+ rate increase if you buy Healthy Paws

Buyer beware - Healthy Paws will jack your insurance premiums by 50%+! My pet insurance premium went up 30% when my pup hit 7 and then another 50% when my pup hit 8. So if you buy their pet insurance, you can expect double digit increases when your pet hits senior age. Healthy Paws will tell you premium increases of any amount is within their legal right, that your state approved the increase, that they are just doing it cover their increasing costs. The sleazy part of pet insurance is that the consumer can't just switch companies because future insurance won't cover preexisting conditions, so I am stuck with the double digit increases despite how unfair it is. I regret buying with Healthy Paws - you will get no sympathy when you try to explain the havoc this will wreak on your budget.

Process claims quick

Healthy Paws have a friendly staff and care for your pets. One of my pets had two ACL surgeries, one on each leg, and Healthly Paws was able to cover most of the bill. Compared to other pet insurances, I find Healthy Paws' premiums are affordable and provide a discount when you address changes or add a pet. I have two pets too.

$15 – $80, depending on breed, zip code, age of pet and choice of deductible and co-pay.

Coverage
