ASPCA | Pet Insurance Review

My dog got really sick and it was about $4000 in vet bills. Thank god for the pet insurance I got 80% reimbursement quickly. Everyone should have pet insurance especially this one!!!

I never considered medical insurance for my cat. But during her life, she has needed bladder surgery; daily injections for diabetes; daily medication for a thyroid condition. I have spent tens of thousands of dollars on her over the course of her 18-year life and fortunately, she's still going strong. But when my daughter brought a tiny puppy home from her semester abroad in Baja, Mexico, (he came here legally, through customs, with a vet's approval and the proper shots.) But I knew if I was going to keep him, he would have to be covered by insurance. Because Diego was born in a swamp and was starving, he is a little food-obsessed. I guess the fear of starvation never goes away. At the beginning, we came home more than once to find broken dishes and bowls and lots of missing food. So now we are very careful to keep things in the kitchen out of his reach. Unfortunately, sometimes I don't get everything as far out of the way as necessary. I knew when I got home from a morning exercise class a couple months ago and saw an empty raisin bag on the floor I was in trouble. It was a 2.25 lb. bag from Costco and when I left it had been almost full. Fortunately I knew raisins and grapes are incredibly poisonous to dogs, so I immediately called my vet. They made me call Animal Poison Control, who gave me a case number and told me to get Diego to my vet as soon as I could. I know now it was a serious emergency and that if I hadn't acted quickly, Diego most likely

I've had ASPCA pet insurance for several years. I've used it for two claims and in both situations they provided timely claims processing and payment. When I've called them, they are very nice on the phone and helpful. I think it's reassuring to have this coverage in the event that one of my cats has a serious condition that I might not otherwise be able to have treated. I wish they covered more preventative service (i.e., dental cleaning), but that's my only complaint.

I have been with Petshealth for over 3 years. I have two Bichons insured. The insurance has been great and the claims have been paid in a very timely manner. I find the insurance (after review of others) to be priced well, what is covered to be in line with others, and the customer service has been #1 for me. Several times I have rec'd calls to see how my "little one" is doing following a claim.

At one time my wife and I had two guys insured with Petshealth Care Plan Insurance. We lost Thomas about two years ago, but Oliver is still insured. Ollie doesn't seem to have the problems that Tom did, but as a soon-to-be nine-year-old standard poodle, he has his share of maladies, the current one being an extremely sensitive stomach. As an insurance agent (property and casualty), I appreciate good claims service. While we purchased pet insurance primarily as catastrophe coverage (Tom needed $4,500 worth of surgery once), we have availed ourselves of the coverage offered by Ollie's plan. We're not always in the black, which is okay, but we always receive claims payments in a timely manner, adjusted fairly and accurately. This year, Ollie's claims have more than offset the premiums we have paid. If you care about your pets, as we do, having pet insurance is a surefire way of making sure you can always afford to do the right thing.
