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.

I switched to Pumpkin earlier this…

I switched to Pumpkin earlier this month and had a vet's visit the day before. They reimbursed me on the same day AND checked whether I wanted to use the exam fee reimbursement for the tech exam or save it for the VET exam fee. Amazing service, prompt and easy reimbursement. A+++++

Yay PUMPKIN!!!

Have not used it yet but I have a good feeling that I am going to love Pumpkin. I feel like I got the best insurance for my money, and nothing is too good for my little baby boy, my weenie dog Henry

Sign up was easy

Sign up was easy and cute, peppered with pet turns of phrase. I hope that when we need to use the insurance it is just as easy.

Quick and easy

I got my insurance a little late and because of that i thought the insurance wouldnt be able to reimburse me but they did! They did it the next day and i was able to get my money back. I do wish they offered a bit more than just 1 wellness exam but im happy i have good coverage.

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.
