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 was having trouble uploading a medical file for our German Shepherd Anya. I called and spoke with Ruth - very nice, very helpful. This is my first experience with Pumpkin and so far, very satisfied.

So far, so good! It’s easy to navigate the site, very affordable for our needs. In reading the policy, it sounds pretty transparent. I hope to never have to use it, but if we do…..

Pumpkin is a great insurance package

I am excited to keep our new dog protected. Although he has a pre-existing condition, I am comfortable that when other problems arise, I will have good support from Pumpkin. We also have the Preventive Essentials package which will give us support for vaccines, fecals, and his heartworm checks!

My cat got sick last month

My cat got sick last month, and his bills were racking up so I thought, hey, let's get some pet insurance so we don't run into this again! He passed away within hours of buying a Pumpkin policy. The customer service member who took care of my abrupt cancelation made it so easy and gave me a full refund, no questions only condolences. Thank you, Pumpkin. I'll be back when another furry friend enters my life ❤

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.
