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.

Our insurance was increased because our zip code change and she explained it was due to the price in vet fees in the area.

Our insurance was increased because our zip code change and she explained it was due to the price in vet fees in the area. However she never asked where our vet is located. She offered no solution and when I said this is making me reconsider using the company she made it obvious she didn’t care. We will be looking for a new pet insurance company and will no longer be recommending Trupanion.

I missed a payment and I phone right away and rescheduled it.

I missed a payment and I phoned right away and rescheduled it. But then I got email saying check payment info but I already phoned to reschedule but had to phone again because of email then after I called and complained and they made sure it was on computer which was. Then after that call I received a phone call next day saying update my payment method. So I shouldn’t be getting calls or emails if I rebooked payment date. I’m not to happy about this. It made me angry and upset. It’s not right it kept happening after changed payment date. Fix your system

Just received email my dogs insurance going up.

Just received email my dogs insurance going up. My oldest dog it’s going up 104.00 with my other one 23.00 that’s not bad but 104.00 is ridiculous. It goes up almost every year and you guys are getting close to 600.00 a month from me and we are not using much mostly for small things. I have talked to you before about it going up and all you can say is lower the d deductible and I cannot afford too. It’s getting to the point we’re I might have to get rid of my dogs because I cannot afford to take care of them. Raising the insurance like that is a money grab and you are taking advantage of people.

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.
