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.

I love Trupanion!

I love Trupanion! It has literally been a life saver for my Irish wolfhound! Your coverage is amazing! I recommend Trupanion to every single person I know who has a dog, and then I tell them how much it has helped me. Rhonda was lovely to speak with, very knowledgeable and answered all my questions, even wished me well with my dogs. Thank you for being awesome!

Trupanion has been awesome from start to finish.

Trupanion has been awesome from start to finish. I called recently to cancel service because I no longer have my pet. Without fail, every single time I have called Trupanion for something it has been an easy stress free call.

Generally very happy with Trupanion after several years and several pets this call was to trace a claim that seems to be languishing in the backoffice.

Generally very happy with Trupanion after several years and several pets, this call was to trace a claim that seems to be languishing in the backoffice. Tracy was diligent in finding that the analyst working it is out and what she is waiting on from the vet. However, when we called to pull the vet's chain on that, they claim to have had no contact from Trupanion making the alleged pending inquiry since the time the actual claim was filed; all they had was e-mails related to the pre-approval. So we're not sure whom to believe, and that slightly erodes our confidence in Trupanion.

My German Shepherd has been having problems and Trupanion has been more than helpful to me in covering her expenses.

Trupanion has always been there for us when we need them, and every time I have reason to call I end up speaking with someone informed, helpful, and who sounds like they're just happy to be at work. They always sound truly pleased to help me out. It's amazing.

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.
