Easy and Quick Response

Thankfully, I have not had to submit a claim before, but when I did, it was very easy to upload the doctor's notes and receipt from our emergency visit. Spot was quick to respond and validate our claim. I appreciate the ease and quickness that Spot offers.

Highly recommend

I got insurance on my puppy thinking I would probably never really need it. When he got sick, I was so thankful I had it. It was one less thing to worry about during a very difficult time. My pets will always be insured from now on. It is easy to submit invoices online and the E Vet actually ran the insurance for me. You can't get any easier than that. Trupanion covered what they said they would and my checks came quickly. I would recommend them to anyone!

I paid for a policy with Spot Pet…

I paid for a policy with Spot Pet Insurance and when it actually mattered, they denied everything. Every claim I submitted was rejected using an extremely broad “pre-existing condition” argument based on symptoms from years before coverage—even without a confirmed diagnosis. It didn’t matter that the condition progressed or became severe later. The worst part was the euthanasia claim. The policy clearly lists end-of-life expenses as covered, yet they denied it anyway by tying it back to the same pre-existing reasoning. They didn’t even review it separately—just lumped it in with the rest and denied it with no clear explanation. This isn’t just about one claim—it’s how they interpret the policy. If they can link anything to a prior symptom, they’ll use it to deny coverage entirely. At that point, what are you actually paying for? Thank you for the response, but this is exactly the disconnect I’ve been pointing out. You state that you “never want a pet parent to feel dismissed or unsupported,” yet my experience has been the opposite. All claims—including emergency care and euthanasia—were denied under a broad pre-existing condition determination, without a clear, claim-specific explanation. At the same time, I received a templated condolence email and an unsolicited phone call offering sympathy. Given the context, those communications felt disingenuous rather than supportive—especially while the financial impact of these denials remains unresolved. You mention that decisions are based on medical records and documented symptoms. However, the euthanasia records themselves do not identify a specific diagnosis or explicitly link the procedure to a pre-existing condition. Despite that, the claim was denied without a clear explanation addressing that gap. I have already requested these explanations and have either been ignored or provided templated responses like this one.
