Submitting my claim was easy, got back the 90 percent and am exceptionally pleased with the peace of mind I now have!!

My only wish is that I would have gotten insurance with this company long before I did!!

Great service

My dog was bitten by a snake on the foot. Had to spend the night in a veterinarian ER. Also required a follow up visit with his normal vet. Both claims settled quickly. Great to have peace of mind knowing my dog gets the best health care.

It took a while to hear back, but coverage was great!

Everything was covered so no complaints there! I was very happy to finally hear back and get that news. However the time it took had me in a tight spot financially for a while. I just got out of school and got a job (where I get my pet insurance from) and of course she decided to get sick right when I was completely broke haha. Submitting the claim was easy. It took a long time because old vet records were requested, which I expected and have no complaints about. Then I got those documents and submitted. Then I got a letter after the 30 days that said another 30 days was needed. So while I understand that these things take time, it was about 3-4 months. It would have been nice to hear back sooner but again, overall I am very happy and thankful it was covered. Thank you!
