Best pet insurance in the market
Best pet insurance in the market. Excellent customer service, fast reimbursement and reasonable price. The decision maker for me was the wellness program they offer. It truly helps me keep my pet healthy and yearly check up is covered.

In two years as a customer I have only…
In two years as a customer I have only ever submitted one claim and it was easy to submit and paid promptly. My only problem, and it is a big one, is that the rates jump SIGNIFICANTLY every year. I understand that prices go up due to aging pets, but last year it increased almost 25% and this year it has gone up another 16%. This kind of increase will make it cost prohibitive in the near future...just when I REALLY need it with the aging animals. In my first year alone I paid more in premiums than the amount of the claim that was paid out last month.
