So far, definitely worth it.

Your first year Wellness benefit get used up quickly with a puppy, but it still helps. After the $250 annual deductible, pretty much all that I had was paid for. So far it has paid for itself with minor illness’s, hopefully I never need to use it for something major. I have a bullmastiff that had some gas and skin problems the cost $650 and $330 respectively. I highly recommend using the Vitusvet app, it makes it VERY easy. My only recommendation is that the claim gets processed faster than 3 weeks. For a large claim, it would be nice to have that money back in my pocket ASAP.

Pricey but peace of mind

Great having coverage in case of emergencies but the premium increases drastically each year. My monthly payments increased by more than $30 in just one year.
