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.

Awesome Provider

I was hesitate on which insurance to provide to my two rescues after I had lost a pet, but knew I needed some kind of catastrophic coverage. I am in AWE of how quickly, professionally and fully Trupanion covered my intial claim, and then a follow-up claim came along. Again, quickly and professionally covered. I highly recommend everyone who owns a pet, consider this to be the best coverage out there. Abby, Harry and I love Trupanion!

Reliable and easy to work with

I don't know what we would do without Trupanion. When we first signed up, my husband and I weren't sure if pet insurance was worth it. Well, now we know it is. Our dog has ended up with numerous medical bills for various issues over the last three years. Most recently, she's had throat/stomach issues that required expensive tests. Trupanion's claims submission has been so easy to work with and their response has been so fast. We received a reimbursement check yesterday for a claim that was submitted just last week. I highly recommend Trupanion.

Wonderful Service for Dog's Orthopedic Injury

Doc, our 1 year old Lab mix, had an unfortunate play injury...he jumped off the couch and injured his superficial digital flexor tendon. We are so glad we had gotten Trupanion after seeing a flyer at our vet. Doc's injury required orthopedic surgery, which was pretty expensive. We were so thrilled with Trupanion for coming through on their promise and taking care of 90% of the cost of the entire injury from the first appointment to the final check up. The claim was handled in a very timely fashion and the one time I called in the person I spoke with was extremely helpful and kind. Thank you Trupanion. I am recommending you to all of my friends and family!

Reliable, straightforward coverage

I have had Trupanion coverage for my 12 year old Golden for several years. The coverage is exactly as advertised. No surprises, no fine print ripoffs. Reimbursement is fast and efficient.

Best pet insurance in the industry!!

A preapproval form was submitted when the vet determined my dog needed surgery and the claim was processed before she came out of anastetia (sp?). Trupanion stands by their guarantee. I have had terrible experiences with other pet insurance companies.

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.
