Unexpected Pet Emergency!

Unexpected pet emergencies happen, and there's no better feeling than knowing you are part of a network that has you covered when you need help most. Our sweet Ollie was suddenly unable to relieve himself one afternoon, which required immediate action! We rushed him to the pet hospital, and thanks to Healthy Paws, were able to get him the BEST care possible, on the spot. It is so relieving as a pet parent to know that someone has your back, allowing you to bypass less thorough solutions and afford the best treatment options available for your little furball. No questions asked, just send over the required documentation and your reimbursement check will arrive within a few days!

I company that not only goes above and beyond, they show that they care

I cannot express how satisfied I am with my experience with Healthy Paws insurance! I have 2 senior dogs with multiple health issues. Both pups have gone through various heath issues & surgeries over the past 5 yrs or so (seizures, spleen mass, cancer scare, diabetes, cataracts/blindness to name a few). Each time, Healthy Paws processed my claims within 1-3 business days (at most) and the reimbursement was in my checking account within 3-5 business days. If they have needed add'l info, they have contacted my vet themselves, which makes it seamless to me. Needless to say I have had numerous claims over the years and my premiums have only had a normal/expected yearly increase as they have a policy that incidents do not impact premiums. My monthly premiums are actually lower, sometimes far less, compared to my friend's premiums. During my pup's recent health issues, someone from Healthy Paws actually emailed me to express their sympathy for my pup's recent health issues and checking in to see how she is doing. I was very touched and could not believe an insurance company did this. Healthy Paws will absolutely be my pet insurance company for as long as I have pets. I highly recommend Healthy Paws!

We were surprisingly pleased!

We’ve made several claims over the years for illness and accidents for our dog and they were paid quickly with no unpleasant surprises. It gives us real peace of mind to visit the vet and not have to make potentially heartbreaking decisions about affording pet care. One thing to be aware of is that the new year begins on the anniversary of when you first enrolled. I thought it was a calendar year. When I called to question it, they kindly explained how that works.

Very happy with the claims process

I have had Healthy Paws pet insurance for 8 years, since we got our sweet rescue dog. He had a small procedure a few months after we brought him home and Heathy Paws covered it. Recently, our pet had a mass removed from his eyelid. I submitted a claim and it was reviewed and they covered everything, but the small deductible,within a day. I am actually receiving the check in today's mail, 9 days after his surgery! We are very happy that we signed up for this pet insurance.
