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.

I enrolled Cujo when he was a puppy and just before his 2nd birthday he was diagnosed with epilepsy. Trupanion has been amazing to deal with in all aspects of his coverage. If it wasn't for Trupanion Cujo may have had to be put down because of the costs. As an example I just bought 3 months worth of drugs that cost $460, within 48 hours of submitting his claim I was direct deposited $416.Thank you Trupanion for being there!
As I always say "insurance is a waste of money until you need it and then it's worth every penny!

Best Pet Insurance
So glad that I decided years ago to purchase Pet Insurance coverage for my dog. Trupanion's claims process is so easy and fast, and now that I can have my animal hospital submit the claim BEFORE I leave their hospital, nothing could be easier! My dog has better coverage than I do!

I am so appreciative of the ongoing commitment
Molly has a number of medical concerns which require Veterinary evaluation, interventions and frequent monitoring/follow-up. Providing quality care for Molly has always been a priority. Applying for insurance for Molly was one of the best decisions we have ever made. Molly is a very special member of our family!

My dog's still alive
I've worked in the veterinary field for over 12 years, and currently work in an Internal Medicine specialty service. I am amazed at how the insurance industry has changed veterinary medicine. Clients and patients are able to afford medical treatments that prior to insurance they couldn't which often led to euthanasia of a family member. I have told many people over the years to get insurance for their pets, and fortunately I eventually took my own advice.
I originally got pet insurance for my pets because of an HR benefit from a family member. It was another insurance company and I had a horrible experience. It took over 3 months for a claim to be paid, and took a lot of back and forth between the company, the veterinary clinic and myself. During this experience, I spoke to some of the receptionists at the veterinary hospital I work for to see what their opinions were on the best insurance company. They overwhelming told me Trupanion was the easiest, quickest, and best. I decided then to sign up my dog first, until I completed the claim with the other company for my cat's bill.
This was the best decision I could have made. My dog, Luna, has had some issues with skin allergies throughout her life. Other than that, she was pretty healthy dog.
About 1 month after getting Trupanion insurance, I noticed she was lethargic, and didn't want to eat her food. She's a food hound, so I brought her into work right away. She was admitted as soon as I took her in. Her red blood cell level was 16%, normal is over 35%, and she had no platelets. I was shocked that I didn't even realize she was so sick. How did I miss the clues?
It turned out that she has an Auto Immune disease where her body attacks her red blood cells and platelets. She was in the hospital for 5 days, with 2 blood transfusions, and was started on some pretty major medications.
Her initial bill was well over $4000, and that was with my employee discount. We spoke to a rep from Trupanion on the first day that she was in the hospital and they review her medical records and preapproved her within 24 hours of the initial contact! Once the final bill was completed, I submitted my first claim ever with them. I was very skeptical given my ongoing experience with the other insurance company. When the first check came within a week of her being home, I was shocked! Trupanion didn't try to 'weasle' their way out of reimbursement, and covered everything!
It really did take a huge weight off my sh
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.

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

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!
