Above and Beyond

I have had Healthy Paws for my Dog Jasper for 8 years. They are by far THE BEST pet insurance you can have. Jasper had Cancer 2 years ago and it was a lengthy & expensive treatment. Healthy Paws paid the claims quickly, what a life saver. Now Jasper tore her CCL and again an expensive surgery. Healthy Paws even sent a personalized email asking how Jasper was doing after the surgery. Absolute best pet insurance hands down.

532% Increase in Premiums

My premium went from $29.05/month to $183.45/month with Healthy Paws. That is a 532% increase. When I enrolled I was told that I would see a 0-15% increase in premiums from year to year, but that was a lie. The upcoming increase is a FIFTY PERCENT INCREASE. And my pet has a preexisting condition, so I have no ability to change and receive the same coverage.

Compassionate, comprehensive, complete and rapid response

Our experience with Healthy Paws confirmed we chose the right insurance company. I studied many of them before making a decision. We had a whopper claim thanks to our one year old cat needing extensive surgery from eating two Nerf darts. Seriously. Very dangerous, life-threatening blockages. But all is well and I'm so relieved we signed up with Healthy Paws.

Seamless, compassionate, timely

I am so thankful we enrolled in Healthy Paws. Our one year old kitten somehow found and ate two small Nerf darts and although the foam part came up/out, the plastic tips didn't pass like we'd hoped. She had two blockages and we were at our regular vet, the emergency clinic and the surgical emergency. All the imaging, the surgery, the meds ... and more. It was a lot. I had peace of mind before all this happened, after diligently researching and asking around about insurance policies. Healthy Paws was the best choice. And-- two days after the claim, the money was deposited straight to my bank account. Whew, so glad it turned out well-- and our kitty after a convalescence is back to being bouncy and happy.
