My puppy ate a rock :/

Shortly after getting pet insurance thru Healthy Paws we needed a vet visit! My puppy ate a rock :/ Getting pet insurance was the best decision ever! I have another insurance provider for my 5 yr old Boxer but I feel Healthy Paws has a much better plan and covers a wider arange of issues. It's very stressful when you have a sick or injured pet.......Healthy Paws took all thee stress and worry away. I was able to focus on getting my puppy well. Thank you Healthy Paws! PS..I work for a family run pet supply and now recommend Healthy Paws to all our customers! Karin & Saylor

Great insurance, fast and easy service

We selected Healthy Paws in 2011 when our first dog Diesel was a puppy and could have been nicknamed "crash." Fortunately, he grew up a little and we didn't have to use it. When we got our second dog Luna in 2013 we added her immediately. We are so glad we did as this year, Luna has had more than her fair share of vet visits. She was hit by a car in February, tore a cruciate in March and had TTA surgery, followed by rehab, and just a few weeks ago tore her meniscus in the same leg and had to have another surgery. Every time we submit a claim, it is processed and paid with no questions and no delay (usually within 10 days). It's been a rough year for Luna, but Healthy Paws has allowed us to focus on her recovery instead of worrying how we are going to pay her vet bills.

Thankful for Healthy Paws!

My French Bulldog had a cyst on her spinal cord and needed surgery to relieve the pressure it was placing which in turn was affecting the movement in her hind legs. We are extremely happy with the coverage we received from Healthy Paws and the quick turn around time to receive payment. Submitting the claims is very easy and done online with a follow up email from Healthy Paws showing it's being processed. Reimbursement checks were sent within the next week which was fantastic! I have recommended Healthy Paws to my friends and family and will continue to do so.

Healthy Paws is absolutely the best

We thoroughly researched all of the pet insurance companies and found Healthy Paws to be the best choice for us. The biggest selling points for us was that the deductible is annual (not per incident), and that the maximum payout is unlimited annually and lifetime. Like most pet parents, we took out insurance as we never wanted to have to choose between our dog’s health and finances. We hoped we would never have to use it, but in the almost 5 months Dixie has been home with us, we have had to use it multiple times. She has had giardia, surgery to remove a baby tooth that broke off at the gumline, and 2 surgeries for what we thought was a puncture wound that ended up being a dermoid sinus tract that went thru and under her nasal bone. Quite a lot to go thru for a puppy who is only 6 ½ months old. All of her claims have been paid promptly with no questions asked (unlike human insurance which always seems to be a fight to get them to pay for anything). Their customer service is outstanding. It was stressful enough watching her go thru all of these procedures, and it was nice not to have to worry about the financial end of it. It is such a nice touch that they followed up after her last major surgery to check on her. We recommend Healthy Paws to any of our friends who ask about insurance for their pets and we will only use them for our pets.
