better than going it alone

The first time I needed to utilize this insurance, it literally saved Patrick's life. He broke his leg in a really severe way and without this insurance I wouldn't have been able to afford the $3,000+ surgery he needed to avoid being put down. It takes a while for the claims to get processed, but it is nice to know there are very few things that can happy to Patrick Swayze that I won't get some sort of help with.

Good, but I wish the vet could file the claims

Reimbursement seems fair, response time seems adequate. Just wish it worked like people insurance. Would rather have vet file the claims.

Awesome insurance for my puppy

Was thankful I purchased as my new puppy got constipated from the food she was eating and had to take to the ER vet. They covered the expenses after deductible and really saved me some money. It is definitely peace of mind well purchased. Will keep it every year as you never know. They reimburse quickly too!!! Great company.

So far, so good

So far we have been very happy with the coverage that our policy provides. My only complaint is that it takes a long time from the time a claim is received to when we receive payment. Other than that, the coverage has been a great thing for both routine care costs as well as when the unexpected, larger health issue needs to be treated.
