Pumpkin is a pet care company on a mission to make the best pet care possible fur all. Pumpkin was started after its founders took a look at other pet insurance options on the market and found that some were missing one crucial component – preventative care. Pumpkin believes all parents should be able to give their pets medical care if they’re sick or hurt, and preventive care that keeps them healthy throughout their lives.

Easy to work with

Pumpkin pet insurance was very prompt when I filed my pets vet bill. It only took about a week for the company to reimburse my claim. It was also very easy to file my claim.

Not the easy claims that I was promised

I have tried to do two claims and pumpkin keeps asking additional information. The vet clinic gave everything, and I uploaded, but the process is very cumbersome and not at all friendly as promised. I am thinking about changing insurance. Update: Some of my claims were denied, so for those thinking about this service please spare yourself a bad experience. I am definitely cancelling and moving to another service.

Very easy to submit a claim

Very easy to submit a claim. Claim was approved and paid within two days. Excellent service.

Monthly Cost

Plans start as low as $30 per month. Prices vary based on plan type, pet breed, age, and location.

Coverage

Every pet is covered by a 90% reimbursement rate to make it easier to say “yes” to the best possible care.

Payout Limits

Annual limits of $10,000, $20,000 or unlimited for dogs and $7,000, $15,000 or unlimited for cats.

Deductible

3 options: $100, $250, $500 and $1000

Age Limits

No upper age limits. Pets must be at least 8 weeks old to enroll.

Waiting Period

Insurance coverage begins 14 days after your policy begins for all conditions, including knee/ligament issues where some other policies make you wait 6 months for coverage. No waiting periods for preventive care (in fact, depending on when you received the care, you may be eligible for a retroactive refund).

Exclusions

Pre-existing conditions are not covered. However, unlike some other pet insurances, Pumpkin’s plan covers some curable pre-existing conditions if symptom-free for 180 days, with the exception of knee and ligament conditions. For full terms, visit pumpkin.care/insurancepolicy.
