Excellent and fast reimbursement

Our dog Sophie recently had extensive surgery. The Pets Plus Us claim was very simple to file and the payment arrived in a couple of days. This definitely eased the burden of a very expensive surgery. I would recommend Pets Plus Us to any pet owner.

My dog Shep the "corn dog"

My golden, shep, ate a raw corn on the cob at Thanksgiving; i discovered this after he vomited some pieces 10 days later. He was rushed into surgery where they removed two large pieces of the corn cob which was blocking his intestinal tract from his stomach. All went well and he is fine; I submitted my claim to Pets Plus Us online and received my cheque in less than a week no questions asked. Great service

From Day 1, Pets Plus Us has been the best partner

We have been with Pets Plus Us for the past 9 years...ever since we brought our french bulldog puppy home. They have always been an amazing partner and we have had no issues with using them. Recently, our 9 year old, ended up in emergency care for swollowing a rawhide bone end. She was in the hospital for 24 hours, had it extracted, and subsequently on 7 days of medication. We submitted out claim the day we had the final receipt and we had our reimbursement back 8 days later. I could not possibly ask for a better experience. Thank you Pets Plus Us for always putting our family and loved one first!

Always exclusions for nothing

Any observation in the file becomes a medical condition and therefore an exclusion Pet plus Us put an exclusion on my file for any illness related to my cat's ears because her ears were "a little dirty" at her last appointment. Having slightly dirty ears is not an illness, I contested. My veterinarian has filled out an official statement stating that my cat's ears are "remarkably normal." Pet plus Us does not want to know anything and maintains its exclusion. In short, if your animal is not perfect, without any link to an illness, you will have exclusions. Does your pet have a runny eye? Exclusion for eye diseases. Has your pet gained a little weight? Exclusion for overweight and associated conditions. Is your pet losing more hair lately? Exclusion for skin conditions. Any OBSERVATION recorded in your animal's medical file becomes an exclusion. Be careful with this insurance company! They really don't inspire confidence in me. My 3 year old cat in perfect health (no illness in the past, no medication, nothing) has 3 exclusions! When I read the contract drawn up by Pet plus Us, you would swear that my cat is chronically ill: no coverage for the ears, any illness related to weight and any urinary system problem. All this because of "a little dirty" ears (but remarkably normal, as written by the veterinarian), 0.96 pounds overweight (large male of 5.96 kg) and a consultation because I was worried about his attitude after a change of sort of litter. My veterinarian himself doesn't understand at all. However, his statement is not considered at all.
