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.

great company

I'm very happy with this company. I've done plenty of chats and always got a great response to my questions. Submit a claim would get the refund the next day show what got reimbursed and what didn't. Glad I picked Pumpkin for my dogs pet insurance regret not getting it for my previous dog who ended up with lymphoma. I'm not making that mistake again that's why I choose to go with Pumpkin after reading the reviews best decision I made.

Reliable and easy to use pet insurance

I enjoy the easy-to-use online claim service, how fast reimbursements are sent, and the fairness they have applied to assessing my two cats' cases. It's a relief not to have to worry so much about making decisions related to how expensive pet care can be, because I know much of it will be covered.

Very happy

This insurance covers more than the other one I had for Timmy. I received a check from them within a day or so after submitting the bill from my Vet. Very happy with them so far no complaints here!

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.
