Thank you for Benefits paying out!

Recently my little chi ( almost 16 years old) was having some discomfort and wasn’t acting like herself so we had to take couple of visits to the doctor. Since her deductible has been paid off while back , we enjoyed getting reimbursed for almost everything. Thank you !

Easy process and helpful staff

The claims are easy to submit and refunds arrive in a very timely manner. The staff is always professional and seems to care and wanting to help.

Just started

I'm just getting started with this whole pet insurance thing. One thing I'm not happy with is that annually, I'm paying more than the $500.00 limit thats given for the total coverage for my dog plus I have a $100.00 deductible for emergencies. If my dog would ever need life saving treatment, I'll probably have to pay for most of the medical care. I mean, if that's the case, what do I need you for? I don't know...I'll make my judgement of it all at the end of the first year.
