Best service, rapid response.

Such great response time, and as usual just AMAZING coverage. Hands-down the BEST insurance I’ve ever had. I wish my own health insurance was as comprehensive and supporting!

Lack of Communication

Overall I am very happy with the help your company provided for her vet visit. The process was a tedious one with constant letters telling me they needed more information from the last two years when there wasn't any. Then after about multiple letters and multiple calls i had to resend the paperwork. Then more letters and more phone calls and then you needed a letter from me. Then more letters from you guys saying you needed the same thing over and over. Then a check. Hurray.

It's nice to have some back up to pay the vet bills

Although there are still deductibles and co-pays, at least some of the vet bills are covered. My biggest complaint is that their claim forms don't allow for just "wellness" visits. My dogs are young and haven't had issues with injuries or illness. Just "wellness" visits for check ups and vaccinations.

Monthly Cost

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.
