Trupanion pets lead longer happier lives.1 Pets insured with Trupanion lived longer than pets without Trupanion because pet parents didn’t have to worry about the cost of the care their pet needed. Depending on the plan Trupanion covers up to 90% of eligible expenses, has unlimited payouts-always, and can pay your vet bill, within seconds, at time of checkout, so all you pay is your portion (anything not covered by Trupanion). They have transformed the way pet insurance handles claims by eliminating the reimbursement process. Trupanion was founded in Canada and provides bets-in-class coverage and is dedicated to helping pets we love get the care they need. They’ve been around for more than 20 years, making them experts and setting standards for the industry. One perk of this, and what they pride themselves on, is the amount they pay out to pet owners for each claim. Paying out more on the dollar than any other pet insurance provider. To date they have paid out $2 Billion in claims and have insured nearly 1 million pets. To put it simply, there is a reason why 98.7% of Trupanion members stay enrolled every month. 1Based on a December, 2020 Trupanion study analyzing third party hospital claims data comparing pets insured with a Trupanion policy to pets without a Trupanion policy. *Terms and conditions apply.

Trupanion is not longer the company they used to be!Do NOT use this company

Do NOT use this company. Once a great company, no longer! We have had insurance with them for over 12 years and our dog was diagnosed with periodontal disease years ago and they said, no worries they will never use a diagnosis to increase your rates or not cover you in the future BUT guess what, now that she needs surgery they will not cover her costs of between $4k-6K (don't even get me started on the Vet pricing) because we did not have her teeth cleaning completed within 3 months of her pet visit. Had no idea, I advised them that our Vet left the practice and we just found another so missed out by 4 months. Does not matter, what the circumstances are, sorry! Take your money, put it aside and forget about using Trupanion! So disappointed and to those who say, oh we have had no issues, either did we! Wait for it!

Trupanion is a very dishonest company

Trupanion is a very dishonest company. After having their insurance for a few years they will increase the rates signifagantly more then they any of their sales material advertises. They justify this by using statistics that are beneficail to their claim while ignoring their own published finacial numbers. For example, they claim vet costs are up 65% in the emails they send notifying informaing a customer of the increase while their published finacials state the increases were closer to 35%. Our last increase was 15% on top of a 30% increase a couple of years ago. If you call in and questions what going on you are met with passive agressive people saying their "sorry you fell that way" rather then addressing the actual issue. We are 7 years in and they know its cost probiative to leave so they gouge customers playing on their concerns for their pets health. This company is morally bankrupt and should be avoided at all costs. Use at your own peril.

I was very happy with the sign up

I was very happy with the sign up! But not happy that I was told it would only cost me $61.47 and you took out more than that. You took out $101.00 That not what I was told? I well only pay they $61.47 not anymore or I will cancel if that's the case. Thank you Joanne.🌺

Monthly Cost

Monthly cost varies due to multiple factors including: species, breed, age at enrollment, gender, and postal code.

Coverage

One simple plan covers new injuries and illnesses, hereditary, congenital, and chronic conditions—once the deductible is met, Trupanion pays 90% of the remaining invoice. To view a full list of inclusions and exclusions, check out our sample policy here.

Payout Limits

Unlimited lifetime payouts on eligible conditions with no payout limits-ever.

Deductible

You can choose your deductible from $0 – $1000, in $5 increments, to fit your budget. Trupanion offers a lifetime, per condition deductible meaning that once the deductible is met for an eligible condition, you never have to meet it again. That condition is covered for life. This is great for chronic conditions that can span the entirety of a pet’s life such as allergies or cancer.

Age Limits

All pets under 14 years old can enroll. Once enrolled, pets stay insured regardless of age.

Waiting Period

Accidents: 5 days Illnesses: 30 days Other providers may have additional waiting periods for congenital conditions like hip dysplasia, Trupanion does not.

Exclusions

Trupanion was developed to protect you and your pet from unexpected illnesses and injuries. That means we don’t cover “predictable” care costs that you can plan ahead for, like: Examination fees Wellness and preventive care Elective, or cosmetic procedures Sales tax, where applicable Like all pet insurance providers, Trupanion does not cover pre-existing conditions. Whichever insurer you choose, it pays to enroll early! *Terms and conditions apply. Please view your sample policy for complete coverage details.
