ASPCA | Pet Insurance Review

Our spunky Yorkie, Pumpkin, turns ten this month (April 30) and has been covered since she was a puppy. She's had many ailments over the years, in fact, her private "folder" in my desk is twice as thick as my beautiful Cocker Spaniel, who lived 16 years with us. Pumpkin experienced kennel cough, worms and hypothermia when we took over her care as a puppy. Our Vet is wonderful; she recovered and we had no problem with our pet insurance (Petshealth Care Plan). Recently, we discovered a small growth on her eyelid. It was the weekend, and I planned to call the Vet Monday. There was deep snow on the ground and Pumpkin loves scooting around and burying herself in the snow - however, she came up bleeding profusely. It turned out to be a small (benign) tumor. When she had her surgery, I also had her teeth cleaned. I am so thankful I had pet insurance, because it was over $1,000. My Vet broke down the costs separately for the insurance company. I received my check in weeks and was satisfied. I am also thankful that the insurance will cover Pumpkin for the rest of her life. I have recommended this company to friends and will continue to do so. Thank you for your support for the past ten years - we really appreciate it!

They advertise that they'll 80% of vet's bill but in actuallity they pay 80% of what they think the procedure costs...and i dont know where they get their price lists from...

We have a Newfoundland puppy who weighs over 160 pounds, everything costs more due to his size He is very healthy, but the claims we have had have been quickly done, and we are very satisfied with our insurance

My 9 year old Brittany recently went through a period of almost daily vomiting and diarrhea. After several months of testing with no progress and difinitive diagnosis, she was finally diagnosed with IBD. Having insurance was enormously helpful in getting her treated until we finally knew what the problem was, and she is happy and well today.

It's great that we can buy pet insurance at a small fee per month, depending on your plan. With our 2nd dog we bought from a shelter, we weren't sure of her background. We were glad we purchased insurance from ASPCA, because our dog started seizures. We had to have an MRI and spinal tap done. At first they refused and said it was congenital or genetic. I did get our vet to send them a letter in which it was stated it was idiopathic epilepsy. No problem getting reimbursed our percentage after that.
