We are so thankful we found Healthy Paws

We purchased other insurance for our new puppy after internet search before we discovered Healthy Paws and switched our coverage within the first year and are so glad we did. I never wanted the cost of a procedure to be a factor in making hard choices about care in an emergency or illness. Our golden doodle has received the best of care at MSPCA Angell Memorial and recently had a Mast cell tumor that was infringing on his eye removed. I repeatedly am amazed at how caring and quickly claims are processed. I received reimbursement within 3 days of submission of the latest claim.

The Best Pet Insurance Company In The Industry!

4 1/2 years ago I was lucky enough to meet my St. Bernard puppy Gus! I researched everyone in the pet insurance industry and one name kept coming up, Healthy Paws Pet Insurance. I was skeptical to think that anyone could be this great. Every review was right. Each and every time I ever had to submit a claim, it was processed immediately and never with question. About a month ago I received the news that no one wants to hear. Gus was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma. It has been a month of X-Rays, doctor visits, lab work, oncology visits and pain management. Without the support of Healthy Paws, Gus could not receive the proper care that he needs and deserved. I love Healthy Paws! You are helping both Gus and I to make it through a very difficult and challenging time.

Quick Turnaround and Exception Service

We just started with Healthy Paws at the beginning of the year and I've been incredibly impressed. Our dog Soupy got the tip of his tail bitten off and had to have part of it amputated so it would heel. I submitted my claim online and it was wrapped up in 36 hours and I received a check soon after. I submitted a follow-up invoice for post-op medications on the iPhone app and couldn't believe how easy it was. In both cases, I received a very clear summary of exactly what was covered. The entire process was incredibly painless and let us focus on Soupy's recovery. I also reached out the support line to ask a question about the claim process and was able to speak to someone quickly who answered all of my questions. I am very impressed with the responsiveness and great service at Healthy Paws and I highly recommend them.

Highly Recommend!

I have a lab that is almost two years old and as you know- labs eat everything!! She was able to eat a leaf from a sago palm and by that evening she became very ill. I took her immediately to the emergency clinic and they were able to treat her and today she is showing no signs of illness. I brought her home on a Monday- submitted a claim that day and by Tuesday they had completed my claim and mailed a check. Healthy Paws even followed up with me to see how she was doing- my own doctor doesn't do that! Would recommend!

Very Impressed. Glad I did it...

I wasn't sure about getting pet insurance for my puppy since it didn't seem necessary. However my sister who has an older dog and others had urged me to consider.I really researched all of the pet plans thoroughly and though I didn't know anyone else who was using HealthyPaws decided it really looked like the best option for me. Honestly, my vet was recommending another service but it didn't seem like the plan overall was as good for several reasons. All I can say is my experience has been fabulous. The bad news is my puppy has been sick, ate something that disagreed with him, stepped in something that made his foot swell up, needed some tests, etc. HealthyPaws is SO easy and SO QUICK about processing and payment. I have been shocked. I submit a claim one day and seem to get a check in the mail a couple days later. I am telling all my new pet friends and urging them to try HealthyPaws!
