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.

Convenient and Quick Reimbursement

My pup’s vet recommended Pumpkin. I was skeptical at first as I’ve heard so many stories about animal insurance not being sufficient and ultimately a waste of money. However, I am pleasantly surprised with Pumpkin. I submitted my pup’s receipts for his annual and was refunded within just a few days via direct deposit for the full preventative visit through his essentials plans. The insurance options are flexible and with the essentials plan added, the peace of mind is worth it. I never want to need any of it besides the essentials to cover his annual but isn’t that how all insurance works? It’s best to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. Very happy with my vet’s recommendation!

emails missing order

did not receive 1 order, but was charged for it. WILL ARRIVE! IT is extremely frustrating, especially when it was expected it to be deliered in a timely fashion. FURTHER, THERE IS NO WAY TO KOW WHEN THE ITEMS/PACKAGE WILL ARRIVE! Receive too many irrelevant emails. ie requests for information i could not have experienced.

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.
