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.

Pumpkin was wonderful to work with

One of our dogs had to have a major surgery this past year. Pumpkin was wonderful to work. They communicated well and always reimbursed me for covered medical expenses in a timely manner. I will always have Pumpkin Insurance for my pets.

Your waiting period should be announced…

Your waiting period should be announced in advance. I know that many people are not forthright and get insurance after the fact. I signed up for my dog for the long haul and I would have paid the whole year upfront. All i want to do is bring my dog in for its annual check up and add on services i ordered when I started the insurance.

Customer Service

I was able to speak to a person and not just an automated message. The representatives seemed happy to answer any questions. Great customer service.

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.
