Pet insurance helps you cover the cost of unexpected veterinary bills & medications when your pal gets sick or hurt. Each pet insurance plan is different & what works for your neighbor might not be a match for you & your pet.

But no worries—we’ll guide you through the important things to know before you choose a plan. You’ll need to consider things like types of plans & coverage selections, benefits (all the things the plan covers and doesn’t cover) & costs (like deductibles, copays & premiums).

The key to ensuring your pet has the best injury & illness coverage possible is to enroll before they need it. We recommend signing up your kitten or puppy so that future illnesses or injuries can be covered. It’s also important to sign up an older pet before they develop any health issues. Most plans won’t cover pre-existing medical conditions. The longer you wait to get pet insurance, the more it typically costs.

Different plans allow you to customize for a price that fits your budget: your premium, deductible, annual coverage amount & reimbursement rate. Get a free quote & see how to customize your price to find the value that is right for you.

Pet insurance can be very helpful if you don’t know your pet’s full health history. You may not know whether your pet has allergies or medical conditions. Some breeds might also be more susceptible to certain medical conditions & need more care or treatment than others. You can protect yourself from unexpected issues that might arise in the future with pet insurance.

Getting a free quote and enrolling is easy. All you need to do is answer a couple of questions & you’ll get a free quote that’s personalized to your pet. Quotes are often based on type of animal, age, breed & other factors. Once you sign up, there may be a waiting period (which could be up to 15 days) before injuries & illnesses are covered. After the waiting period is over, you’re free to begin submitting claims.

No. Though most plans only cover dogs, puppies, cats and kittens, some plans will cover birds, bunnies, lizards & other exotic pets.
