Easy to use and fast processing
The claims process is easy and they’re quite timely in their reimbursement (a month or less). I honestly can’t imagine using any other pet insurance company!

Insurance with compassion
I had called to cancel my cat’s insurance following his death. I had a difficult time talking without crying and the person I spoke with (Terry) was so very kind and supportive. Terry brought compassion to a difficult conversation. The company also sent a very kind email to express their gratitude for our business and condolences for our loss. They also process our claims quickly.

Filed a claim 1/7/24
Filed a claim 1/7/24. Today is 4/1/24 and I have STILL not received an update. I've called multiple times, been promised by multiple representatives that they would get back to me directly, nothing. Feel this "insurance" has been a complete waste of my money and will be filing to get the last 4 months of money I've paid to this insurance company back. Feel completely scammed and they have nice people when you call customer service, but zero follow through.
