Healthy Paws | Pet Insurance Review

I've been a member of Healthy Paws since my puppy was 10 weeks old. She's 6 years old now. I debated when I got her whether or not I would want to get insurance for her, but at less than $40/month it was an easy decision. Plus we could cancel anytime. Now, 6 years later, it is literally one of the best decisions I've ever made. My puppy (who will always be a puppy even when she's 6 years old) has managed to... * Eat chocolate 3 times (3 ER Visits) * Has eaten something else that made her horribly sick (1 ER Visit) * Has had 6 lump biopsies * Has had 2 teeth removed because they broke * Has had multiple stool sample tests for giardia & other digestive issues * Has had blood tests prior to both oral surgeries and many many more Beyond her general check-ups, every single doctor’s visit has resulted in a payment back to us by Healthy Paws. At this point in her 6 year life we have easily spent $10,000 on various medical visits, and she's actually a very healthy & low maintenance dog. Almost more than anything, having Healthy Paws means I don't need to think about the cost of keeping my dog healthy. It doesn't even cross my mind when issues come up. "Oh, she cracked a tooth...let's take it out before it gets abscessed." There's simply no question. Without Healthy Paws, that one tooth would have cost me over $1000. Also, the reality is that I would go into serious debt to make sure my dog was healthy. I’d do almost anything in the world for her, even if it meant I would be put into a challenging financial position. Thankfully, that’s not an issue. Thankfully, I got healthy paws! Btw, another perk is that they are SO easy to work with. You submit your medical bill, you get a check in the mail. Easy as it could be. Too bad human insurance companies aren’t that easy.

My little boxer mix Khaleesi, loves to chase lizards. Not much brings her comparable joy, and living in Arizona she has limitless resources. When her back legs started to become weak, the vet explained she had bi-lateral cruciate ligament tears and needed serious surgery on both of her legs to regain function. The estimate they provided almost took my breath away - then I remembered I had Healthy Paws Pet Insurance and my breath returned, with a tear knowing I would be reimbursed for 80% and be able to cover the cost of the surgery. But it meant more than that - it meant my rescue pup - only 18 months old, can enjoy the rest of her life running around with her brothers, chasing the lizards (dragons) that gave her her name. I will never be able to thank Healthy Paws enough, but you can be sure I will keep it as long as I have my dogs. Did I mention my other boxer ate a sock and a shoestring and needed surgery too? You get the point by now. GET THIS INSURANCE!!!

After doing our research and speaking to everyone in our circle of friends we decided to use Healthy Paws hoping to never need their help. The process was easy and all was well but the true test is when you need them. Our dog was hit by a car while my wife and I were out of the country and she was staying with my folks. It was a dumb and senseless accident that left our dog with a dislocated and fractured spine. While talking to the doctor at the animal hospital they suggested that if we have insurance...now would be the time to discuss our options since the dog would need an MRI, surgery and likely long term rehabilitation. I called Healthy Paws in a panic to see what our options were just to get the ball rolling and they were...are...amazing. They calmed me down, walked me through my policy and get the hospital to contact them directly to cut the red tape so my wife and I could catch a plane home. The level of care and support that they showed and continue to show...just floors me. They treated me like family and have been holding my hand every step of the way. Through everything that has happened they reach out to check on the dog and on my family. I can't recommend them more. They are something far and above what I expected and are true heroes to my family.

After losing our last dog to cancer, we knew that if we had another pet that we would insure him. Thankfully, we've only had a few smaller incidents with our Havanese. But, we all know how quickly the vet bill adds up. Healthy Paws has been a great insurance for our needs - major medical basically. Filing an online claim is easy and efficient. They accept a jpeg copy of the vet invoice and medical records. Once filed, I hear from them within a week to let me know the file being reviewed. And best yet, they handle cases quickly and send reimbursement with a few weeks. Sure wish my health insurance this efficient! So happy I got this insurance so that treatment plan is easier to handle financially.

It's been one week since Bach was run over by a Chevy Suburban in front of our house. We were all sure we had lost him, after only one year. It was one of the scariest moments we have ever experienced. The team we had with Healthy Paws meant we didn't have to worry about the financial impact his medical bills would make on our family. Amy was so calming and supportive from the first call made to Healthy Paws and all the follow-up calls after, her sincere concern and willingness to help was so comforting! Lauren followed up quickly with the pet hospital! Our claim was processed in less than a week. I'm The sincere kindness and support we have received from Healthy Paws has been overwhelming! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all you have done! Bach is almost back to normal. He's eager to chase balls and run, but we are trying to keep him quite a little longer:) Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Thank you Healthy Paws! We can't recommend you enough!
