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.

Glad I Used Trupanion

Trupanion was recommended to me when I picked up my rescue kitty. She had a couple of problems in the 4 years she was with us, but the couple of times we needed to take her to the ER they were on it and helped me get everything taken care of quickly and with little to no fuss. If you have a pet or are thinking of adopting a pet, I would recommend trupanion, they are a fantastic company and everyone I have spoken to has a love and understanding of being a pet owner. When i lost my kitten to something unknown (her little heart gave out, doctors didn't know why) I received a card with hand written, not printed notes of condolences from several people at Trupanion, this gesture showed me that this company is one I will always support and tell others about when they are looking for pet insurance.

I would do a commercial for Trupanion

My dog has had bouts of a serious illness and even though I've had to worry about his recovery, I've never had to worry about Trupanion quickly processing my claims. I recommend them when ever the subject comes up.

A+, 5 Star service, highly recommend Trupanion!

Customer Service reps were knowledgeable, friendly and fabulous. Very simple and easy to file a claim. Rapid fast processing and payment of claims. I couldn't be happier with the service I received from Trupanion and recommend them to everyone I know who has pets.

Best pet insurance--Trupanion

I have a policy on all my dogs. The first dog I had on Trupanion needed an MRI within a couple of months of getting the insurance. They paid the 90% of eligible costs and it made it much easier to decide to go ahead with an MRI. Most recent was my dog who needed her gall bladder removed--very expensive. Even paying premiums for the last 2.5 years, for a $1000 deductible and my 10% of eligible costs we still come out ahead when compared to having no insurance.

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. They believe that the pets—and the veterinary professionals who help them—deserve better. That’s why Trupanion is a proud member of the North American Pet Health Insurance Association. Our members know we’re ahead of the pack, because there’s pet insurance—then there’s Trupanion: 24/7/365 Member Support—yes, even on holidays 20+ years of experience $2 Billion paid in claims Over 800,000 pets protected Unlimited Payouts The only provider that can pay your veterinarian directly at checkout* Accepted everywhere in the USA, Canada, Puerto Rico, and Australia * At participating hospitals Trupanion is a registered trademark owned by Trupanion, Inc.
