Love this company! Thank you Spot for making it so easy to protect my pup & save money all at once!!

I was hesitant about the idea of pet insurance, but thinking back on how much I've spent over the years on vet bills, it seemed like a no-brainer. I went to Spot's website and got a quote for free before even registering. It was so nice to see my coverage options before putting down a credit card. I feel so at ease knowing that I'm saving money and giving my dog the best care all at once. This company is very easy to work with, as well as has an online presence and many customers, which is something I look for in companies I am giving my money. Thank you Spot for making it so easy to cover my best friend! I will continue to recommend this pet insurance to all my friends who are also pet parents!!

Little to no coverage and terrible customer service

BEWARE! I made a huge mistake enrolling with spot pet insurance. They denied my claim for my dogs torn CCL surgery because they deemed it “pre-existing” because she tore her CCL on the opposite leg 4 years ago. This insurance is a scam and be careful, I used to have FIGO and I regret ever switching. Now I’m stuck with a bill even though my vet provided a letter stating it was not pre-existing.
