So far so good

I just registered so I can't say anything about the coverage yet. It was super easy to register and the site was easy to navigate. The coverage looks good and the price seemed fair comparatively. I didn't give 5 stars because I didn't see the additional $3 monthly transaction fee mentioned anywhere until the very end and I had to google it to see if the fee was charged for any type of payment option (credit card or ACH bank transfers). Since it's charged each month regardless of pay option - it should be mentioned directly and included in price quotes.

Nothing is covered!

I picked Prudent Pet Insurance after doing some research. Unfortunately, this company does not appear to be transparent in their insurance coverage. I brought my dog to the emergency vet and paid almost $1300 and was reimbursed less than $200. They hide details in the fine print and although I thought I had done my research, their sales tactics are deceiving.

New Satisfied Customer

We recently signed up for pet insurance. I was impressed with Prudent Pet's options and rates from the start. Then I needed to contact their customer service, which was stellar, to make some changes. They were responsive with a quick turn around and willingness to assist. We haven't had to file a claim yet but hopefully it will be as easy as making changes to our policy.

Monthly Cost

Monthly rates start at $10 for Accident only and $16 for Accident & Illness coverage. Those rates vary based on species, age, breed as well as your location.

Coverage

We cover based on the actual vet bill and have options for 90%, 80% or 70% reimbursement.

Payout Limits

We offer limits of $2,500, $5,000, $10,000, $15,000, $20,000 and an unlimited plan.  There are no lifetime limits with any option you choose.

Deductible

Choose a deductible that works best for you and your family, we offer $100, $250 and $500 options.

Age Limits

We have no age limits, but your pet will need to be at least 8 weeks old to enroll.

Waiting Period

For our accident & illness plans (essential & ultimate), we have a 14-day waiting period. Our accident-only policy only has a 5-day waiting period. There is no waiting period for wellness coverage.

Exclusions

Pre-existing conditions, cosmetic procedures and breeding costs are not covered by our policies. Optional Wellness Details We have two preventive/wellness plan options. Our basic option costs $9.95/month* and our Prime option costs $24.95/month*. These cover things like wellness exams, dental cleanings, or flea/heartworm prevention. Reimbursement for these is based on a set maximum annual amount. *Correct Jan. 2019
