Excellent as always!
Trupanion is very quick to reimburse and has supported us fully with a number of recent claims for our dog's knee surgery and pre/post care.

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.

This insurance gives me peace of mind
My dog suffered a "sports injury". He had a limp that wan't going away. So we were able to get him mediation and an x-ray to confirm that he did not require surgery at this time. Having insurance allows me to focus on what is best for my dog without being distracted by the financial aspect of going to the vet.

Very thankful!
I added my dog Bailey to insurance at the mature age of 11yrs old even though he was healthy I just started thinking he was getting older and may have problems. I wish I had done it sooner in his life but, better late than never. Within 6 mths of getting the insurance I took Bailey in for a symptom. We were sent to a specialist and told we needed several ewxpensive sonograms and blood tests. It was a hige relief to know I had this insurance to help. We spent over $1600 and were pleased with the amount of money we received back into our checking account from Trupanion as their part of our coverage. They even helped with the medicine. Very glad I made this decision.

Lucy
My baby Lucy became very ill and started having seizures one after the other, we had several vet visits and they had to send us to a Neurological Specialist. We did finally find out what she had, after a MRI and spinal tap,which was an auto-immune disease, it is Granulomatous Meningoencephalitis, it was a very expensive trip, but I am happy to say Lucy has been seizure free for a month now!! Trupanion Pet Insurance is the best, they have paid all of our claims without any hesitation!! I have put my other two dogs on the same insurance now as a result of their great care! Thanks Trupanion!!

Trupanion is the way to go!
I cannot thank Trupanion enough. We recently rescued a beautiful 5 year old Mastiff named Monty who the owners were going to put down. With no history on him we brought him to the vet and made sure he got all of his shots and a check up. He was given a clean bill of health until his blood work came back and he tested positive for heart worm. It was heart breaking but we made the decision to treat him. The first week was really rough but Monty is a fighter and three weeks after treatment he is full of life and doing great.I really didn't think the insurance was going to cover it because it was so soon after we got him and we didn't have any history on him. It make me happy to make that payment every month to know that both of my dogs will always be taken care of!
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.
