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.

Do your research on this company.
Do your research on this company, pre-existing determinations seem quite arbitrary and dicey. Ask for a copy of your pets “medical records summary” once you enroll and look at what could be considered pre-existing.
I also could never get an answer as to why they don’t offer accident only insurance, probably because it’s difficult to consider pre-existing.
I cancelled after 4 years of annually increasing premiums when the last was over 40%.

Effortless Claim...thank you Trupanion!
Our 9 year old Golden Doodle unfortunately suffered a Cruciate Ligament Rupture and required a surgery known as TPLO. The veterinary clinic dealt directly with Trupanion and Trupanion covered 90% of the $4700 bill with no hassle or issues. They even paid the vet directly so I only had to pay the difference from my pocket vs paying the whole bill and waiting for reimbursement. We have been with Trupanion since our Golden Doodle was 10 weeks old and they have always been excellent to deal with. Insurance is something you pay for and hope you never have to use. It is nice to see a company stand behind their claims. Highly recommend using them for your pet's insurance provider.
Thanks again Trupanion for being there when we needed you!

Great plan, every dog should have one!
Always quick and thorough
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.
Trupanion was founded in 2000 with the goal to help pet owners plan for the unexpected and take the cost out of the care equation.
