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.

Fantastic!

We have two dogs who have unfortunately had a number of health issues and we have been so fortunate to have Trupanion as our insurance company. They have been a life saver (literally) in helping us financial cope with the challenges our dogs numerous health issues have cost in the last 5 years. They are fast, efficient, and true to their word about what they will cover. Our dogs may not have made it through their health challenges if trupanion wasn't there helping us. We would highly recommend this company to anyone seeking insurance for a beloved pet.

There's "no bull" with Trupanion

We recently adopted a two and a half year old English Bulldog named Emma. Being familiar with the health issues that frequently effect bulldogs we did research on pet insurance and determined that Trupaninon was the way to go. We liked the fact that there was no deductible and they covered 90% of the cost of care excluding the veterianarian exam fee. We've already had to use the insurance and were extremely impressed with the assistance provided to us by Teresa, our claims adjuster.

Saved our dog and our finances

When our dog came down with pancreatits 13 days ago, we expected he would be hospitalized for two days. As his condition worsened and he was slow to respond to treatment, two days turned into nine days. Bills reached $6000.00. Trupanion processed our claims within 36 hours, and averted what would have been a short term financial disaster. Best of all, our pup is home and on the mend.

Very pleased

My cat ingested a toxic plant and was hospitalized for three nights on an IV. (Two nights in an emergency clinic and one night at my regular vet clinic). I faxed a claim to Trupanion in the morning the day after my cat's release from hospital and received an email in the afternoon the same day to let me know my claim had already been processed. 90% of my costs minus the physical exam fee were reimbursed and I received the funds within a week (almost $500). Very fast service.

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.
