Pumpkin is a pet care company on a mission to make the best pet care possible fur all. Pumpkin was started after its founders took a look at other pet insurance options on the market and found that some were missing one crucial component – preventative care. Pumpkin believes all parents should be able to give their pets medical care if they’re sick or hurt, and preventive care that keeps them healthy throughout their lives.

Every aspect of pumpkin was easy use…

Every aspect of pumpkin was easy use and navigate. Pumpkin also made it effortless to choose the best possible plan based on my specific cats needs, adventures and life. I have the coverage I need for my cat at a price I can afford. So thankful for pet insurance like pumpkin. Not only do they look out for my fur babies but also their humans like me as well!

Enrollment to Coverage: 15-day waiting period?

I wouldn't say I like waiting 15 days after the enrollment date for coverage to begin.

Patience, Thorough and Accomodating

The customer service lady was patient, thorough and very accommodating. She answered all our questions and made sure we understood what the insurance covered, what it didn’t cover and helped us make the affordable choice for our two dogs.

Monthly Cost

Plans start as low as $30 per month. Prices vary based on plan type, pet breed, age, and location.

Coverage

Every pet is covered by a 90% reimbursement rate to make it easier to say “yes” to the best possible care.

Payout Limits

Annual limits of $10,000, $20,000 or unlimited for dogs and $7,000, $15,000 or unlimited for cats.

Deductible

3 options: $100, $250, $500 and $1000

Age Limits

No upper age limits. Pets must be at least 8 weeks old to enroll.

Waiting Period

Insurance coverage begins 14 days after your policy begins for all conditions, including knee/ligament issues where some other policies make you wait 6 months for coverage. No waiting periods for preventive care (in fact, depending on when you received the care, you may be eligible for a retroactive refund).

Exclusions

Pre-existing conditions are not covered. However, unlike some other pet insurances, Pumpkin’s plan covers some curable pre-existing conditions if symptom-free for 180 days, with the exception of knee and ligament conditions. For full terms, visit pumpkin.care/insurancepolicy.
