Very happy with your company

I really appreciate your e-mail showing your concern for my Granddog Iris! She has had a rough last month but is doing fine. I have been so happy with your company, ease of claims, amount covered etc.

Thank you!

Our dog was recently very ill and we couldn't figure out what was going on. We took him to the vet multiple times for a number of tests to rule out the worst.... We put in the claim and were delighted when we received very quick notification of reimbursement. I wish human medical claims were this easy!

Great

I always get the best professional service even when there is an inquiry for a re-examination of a claim. I am satisfied with the service and always feel confident that my and my pet's interests are considered.

Good pet insurer but challenging if your pet has a chronic problem

For most things they are great. I have a dog with herniated discs. She requires acupuncture every other week. After 8 visits this insurance won’t pay, so I end up paying for 14 weeks x 105.00 or $1,470 a year.

Monthly Cost

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.
