Well worth it

So far. So good. We also purchased the wellness rider for our 6 month old toy poodle which covered neutering, exams, heart worm and flea & tick meds. It has already paid for itself. The form was short and easy to fill out. I faxed it along with copy of the itemized Vet bill and was reimbursed in less than 3 weeks

Thank goodness for pet insurance

We have had VPI since our Aust Cattle Dog was 4 months and she is 3 yrs old now. After having 2 other dogs in the past who had significant illnesses that almost broke us, we bought pet insurance. Our ACD had to have extensive dental work last Fall and VPI paid everything but $700.00 for which we were grateful. Most recently, she swallowed a foreign body and reimbursement was for everything ($362.00) except for $40.00 which we didn't expect to begin with. Be sure to itemize on claims and read your policy. We are happy.

Wonderful!

Our dog has a mast cell tumor which required surgery to remove which costed over $900!! We were so glad that VPI came through in such a timely manner and covered all but our deductible!! We are extremely satisfied and have already recommended VPI to our pet owning friends!!

No complaints on first claim

My flat-coated retriever had an episode of vomiting, infection of his prostate and bladder that require a visit to the ER as well as a followup with my regular vet. My claim was paid promptly and was what I expected. VPI made it easy.

Very happy with our VPI policies

We have the highest coverage plans for both of our dogs and every year they have paid for themselves in coverage we have received. From a couple emergencies to an ACL surgery and dental care, we get the full use from our plans and are very happy with them.
