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 awesome!

Two of my dogs do not have Trupanion insurance. They are too old. I have never had a problem with them. I have two surgeries of approx. $8000 each that have been pre approved by Trupanion. They have been paying up every time we spend. We love this insurance. The phone operators are always polite and helpful.

Saved My dogs life!

Maelee (lab-golden mix) was in an accident in the summer of 2013 at 7 months old.She was in intensive care for 7 days, the hospital bill was way beyond what I could pay and Trupanion paid 90%. Maelee recently had a fungal infection from her accident and Trupanion paid 90% of that bill as well. Maelee has several different medications that she takes monthly one of them is $280. every 20 days and Trupanion pays 90% of all her medications related to her accident. I am very grateful to Trupanion for all that they do and I tell everyone I meet to get Trupanion. Note I have always asked the vet if I am doing the right thing by keeping Maelee alive and because she is only 3 the doctors all feel she has a fighting chance. Thank you Trupanion!

Pleasantly Surprised

My 7 year old Pit has been insured with Trupanion practically since birth. I am not a good saver - I see Trupanion as a kind of savings account for her care. Kind of like my own health insurance which costs more and reimburses less :). Ive never had call to use it until this year with two separate lameness incidents. I was seriously stressed about making a claim. I shouldn't have been -Trupanion walked me through the process and reimbursed my claims within ONE WEEK. I recommend them to everyone. THANK YOU TRUPANION for being honest and keeping your promises.

Thanks to Trupanion I can afford the diagnostic pr

The the vet ordered some blood tests ,when my dog's appetite decreased 'just to be sure'he wasn't just getting more picky.Unfortunately ,the tests indicated a liver problem .Supportive therapy was not enough.Eventually a liver biopsy helped to start more targeted treatment ,which has just begun and will continue under the direction of a veterinarian internist. With all this worry ,I am happy to say Trupanion has come through for us every step of the way so far.

Trupanion - So Far So Good!!!

I have had my pet insured for over 2 years. She is 14 years old. She had to have an ultrasound the other day, because of a possible medical issue. I was nervous, because this is the first claim I had made. It was so easy however, I literally filled out a few questions and sent it off. Next thing I new it was approved and almost all the amount was covered. I got a check a week later. So happy I have insurance with such a great company!

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.
