Healthy Paws | Pet Insurance Review

Our 1yr old curious coonhound was either bitten or stung in the early morning hours. After being seen by our vet, she was given numerous antibiotics not only for her swollen leg but also for an ear infection which the vet found. Our vet sent in the claim form and medical records on a Saturday and we promptly received an email on Sunday that the claim check was being processed. In the meantime we received emails from Healthy Paws asking how she was doing. The emails were not automated as they were personally addressed and addressed the specific ailments. A big thank you to Healthy Paws.

I have had banfield and VPI in the past, but switched to healthy paws based upon the reviews I read on this site and I am glad I did. I have submitted two claims so far and have experienced excellent customer service (I dealt with Meredith and she was awesome to work with; she explained all of the details clearly and demonstrated sincerity). For two dogs, my monthly rate is $75/$100 annual deductible each pet. This particular insurance policy assumes a responsible owner will pay for all preventative care and office exam fees (roughly about $30-40), which I am in complete agreement; pets cost money, if you want one, there will be an assumption of financial responsibility. I recently fulfilled my $100 deductible after just two visits and from this point forward, will have 90% coverage until next year. This is a great plan for responsible pet owners who want peace of mind in the event your pet suffers from an injury or illness. My dogs get all of their annual vaccs and heartworm check, but hardly ever get sick, but this plan sure came in handy when my chihuahua developed ringworm and a tumor.

I don't usually send emails like this, but healthy paws service has been so outstanding I had to let everyone know! As you know, pets are like extended family members just with 4 legs and Sarge is no different to me. He is the most sweet loving puppy, and the poor guy for being only 8 months old has had his fair share of problems. Beings this is my first dog, I didn't know what to expect from a pet insurance provider. Let me tell you, ANY expectations I had Healthy Paws FAR exceeded!!! I have had enough stress worrying about the well being of Sarge and they have made one thing MUCH less stressful forme. To anyone looking for health insurance for there pet, LOOK no further. They are cost effective, super courteous, and FAST! What more could one ask for? A+ from me and my pup Sarge! :0)

My 6 month male Golden Retriever has Osteochrondrosis, as well as panosteitis. My vet said they may not pay it out because it is a genetic condition and happens very frequently in larger breed dogs it's very common. But they paid it out no issues at all. He is healthy otherwise. I am so impressed with Healthy Paws, even my vet was impressed and he is going to call and get some brochures for his office. My vet even said this is the best pet insurance company he has seen.

To be fair, I'll mention up front that I have already given Healthy Paws a rave review, but I recently had another claim and think it warrants a second. My little knucklehead, a French Bulldog named Remy, didn’t notice that the sliding glass door was closed and ran into it full tilt. He seemed a little bit dazed at first but we later found that he’d compressed two discs, rupturing one, and needed back surgery. Not only were we very stressed out about our dog being in pain and having to go through so much, but the financial impact was significant. Once again Healthy Paws took care of us. Our reimbursement was lightning fast and exactly what we expected. There isn’t one person I dealt with that didn’t ask how Remy was doing. It’s obvious these people are animal lovers.
