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.

Pete and Karma

My dog Pete was diagnosed with cancer a year ago and just died in June 2011. My other dog Karma was dignosed with cancer in July 2011. Trupanion has been wonderful in expediting my claims very quickly. Also, they have been very supportive when they called to see how Karma was doing. I am very happy with Trupanion.Thank you Cheryl

Keeping me (and my dog) as a customer

We have had our english bulldog since she was 8 weeks old. The breeder gave us a free 1 month policy for her so we looked into keeping it. Knowing english bulldogs can have a lot of healt problems, we continued with this policy. They have always paid out claims and paid them fast. And at 90%! Way better then a schedule of benefits. However, a few months ago, we received notice that the rate was going up. In order to keep the same rate, we needed to raise our deductible to $500. We shopped around and found what we thought was a great plan at a better price. Turned out to be a bad plan at a good price. So we kept our policy with Trupanion!

DONT WAIT TILL ITS TOO LATE

Last year I signed my Great Dane LEXIE up for TRUPANION thinking I would NEVER really use it…To my surprise I have had more than my share of experiences with this company.FIRST I must say it was the SMARTEST investment I have ever made. SECOND, it has been the BEST EXPERIENCE. They have ALWAYS handled my claims in a timely, pleasant & efficient manner. THIRDLY they have ALWAYS PROVIDED her the coverage they claimed they would, some of which was outrageously expensive!!! WITH OUT ANY HASSLE SO don’t even think twice about giving yourself and your pet the BEST AFFORDABLE CARE available! CONSIDER IT PEACE OF MIND

Bull headed Bull dog

My 3yr Old, Olde English Bull Dogge love to run the fence line with the nebours Dobberman in doing so he ran so hard he tore his ACL. Almost $3000 after all was said and done. I am so happy i had pet insurance or I would still be making credit card payments. Trupanion came through in about a week and paid the 90% my policy calls for.I was actualy surprised how fast they paid,and all it took was faxing a simple form my vet filled out for me. the saving from this one incedent will pay his pet insurane for almost the next 5 years.

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.
