Give your pet the best care possible, especially for emergencies or serious conditions

We never want to imagine our pet sick or injured. But things happen. And they happen more frequently than we might expect.

In fact, the American Pet Products Association estimates 1 out of 3 pets will need emergency veterinary treatments. Whether it’s a broken leg or a cancer diagnosis, these bills can add up.

If the unexpected happens, you’ll have peace of mind knowing you’ve made the smart and loving choice to protect your pet — and your pocketbook.

Is pet insurance worth it?

See how pet insurance can help with Bart’s new toy.

Let’s say your 4-year-old Labrador, Bart, eats the new toy you just got him. You take Bart to the vet and find out the toy has to be surgically removed.

To get Bart back to feeling like himself, he needs $4,000 worth of care.

In just one visit, that $4,000 vet bill would cost more than four years’ worth of premiums at $40/month.

What pet insurance typically covers

Pet insurance typically covers things like common illnesses, chronic illnesses, serious illness, congenital conditions, hereditary conditions, surgeries, testing and diagnostics, wellness care, holistic and alternative care, injuries, and accidents.

Many of these features are often bundled together into plans like accident-only, accident and illness, or comprehensive pet wellness plans.

What’s typically not covered

Pet insurance typically does not cover things like experimental treatment (diagnosis and treatments considered experimental, investigational or not within the standard of care), or grooming services (baths, clips, shampoos or nail trims). Pre-existing conditions (injury or illness your pet had before your coverage started) are a common exclusion for most pet insurance companies.
