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.

Best pet insurance money can buy!

I purchased pet insurance from Trupanion when my German Shepherd was 3 months old. When Levi was about 8 months old, he tore ligaments in both front legs while chasing larger dogs at the dog park. Trupanion paid out $7000 almost immediately. I have had to purchase several allergy meds recently and the claims are often paid the same day I filed the claim. A great company.

Great coverage, claim processing and service!

All the folks at Trupanion have provided the best service I could have asked for in my time of need. My dog was seriously injured in a dog fight and they helped me through all the processing every step of the way. All emails, questions and claims were answered quickly and processed faster than any insurance carrier I have ever had. It's a pleasure to carry Trupanion for my pet insurance.

Fast response and the claim was approved!

I'm a happy customer of trupanion. They have been so quick to respond to my claims and I typically get compensated just as quickly. I also appreciate the follow-up letters inquiring if my pup is doing well.

Reliable Insurance

We have been using Trupanion for several years for our two English Bulldogs. After Princess developed seizures we had to begin the claims process and to our surprise, Trupanion was very easy to work with and very clear in their communication. All of the eligible claims have been covered as stated in the policy and payments mailed promptly. Their customer service and claims process is very efficient. I also appreciate that the claims can be submitted a variety of ways (snail mail, email or fax). I would absolutely recommend Trupanion.

You can count on TruPanion. They care.

My dogs have been insured with TruPanion since I got them. I have a French bulldog who has brachycephalic syndrome, and has had two surgical procedures. I don't know what I would have done without TP. It's bad enough to be worried frantic about your dog, without not being able to pay for their care. They are prompt and courteous and show a genuine concern about the pets.

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.
