Ease of coverage with Spot!

Claims are always processed quickly and with detailed explanation of why applied and what didn’t. It’s easy to navigate the app, online and the polices and I feel great having our fur babies covered by Spot!

Very disappointed with this insurance…

Very disappointed with this insurance coverage as our puppy was diagnosed with a congenital heart defect (which our policy covered congenital) that they wouldn't cover claiming it was a pre-existing condition. If you want congenital coverage, my recommendation it that you purchase the policy prior to the puppy being born so it's not pre-existing, if you use SPOT. Now we won't have any coverage for his treatment as his now diagnosed heart condition IS NOW a pre-existing coverage which no one will touch. Also, they also only covered $20 for a routine puppy visit telling us that our vet charges too much nor would they cover the heartworm med our vet selected as it was not on their approved medication list.
