Trupanion pets lead longer happier lives.1 Pets insured with Trupanion lived longer than pets without Trupanion because pet parents didn’t have to worry about the cost of the care their pet needed. Depending on the plan Trupanion covers up to 90% of eligible expenses, has unlimited payouts-always, and can pay your vet bill, within seconds, at time of checkout, so all you pay is your portion (anything not covered by Trupanion). They have transformed the way pet insurance handles claims by eliminating the reimbursement process.
Trupanion was founded in Canada and provides bets-in-class coverage and is dedicated to helping pets we love get the care they need. They’ve been around for more than 20 years, making them experts and setting standards for the industry. One perk of this, and what they pride themselves on, is the amount they pay out to pet owners for each claim. Paying out more on the dollar than any other pet insurance provider. To date they have paid out $2 Billion in claims and have insured nearly 1 million pets.
To put it simply, there is a reason why 98.7% of Trupanion members stay enrolled every month.
1Based on a December, 2020 Trupanion study analyzing third party hospital claims data comparing pets insured with a Trupanion policy to pets without a Trupanion policy.

tumor on my dogs tail
I started using this company after I lost a pet to cancer. I wish I had their insurance then. I have 2 Shih Tzu's and thought with what I went thru not having insurance with the one, that I would get it for my other two, so I would never have to experience this again. My Vet recommended Trupanion and I called and decided to go with them. My one dog is 8 yrs old and noticed this lump on his tail. Took him to my vet and it was a tumor so went ahead and had it taken care of. My vet sent in a pre authorization and then decided to have it done. I was amazed at how fast Trupanion worked with my claim. He had the surgery on a Monday and by Thursday my money was in the bank (before my Vet cashed my check). Then with the follow up and bandage changes etc, Trupanion had that money in my acct within 2 days. My hubby and I are disabled and these dogs are so much comfort to us and keep us going. I am so glad that I now know I have comfort in knowing my pets will be taken care of when an accident or health issues arise.

AWESOME experience
Our Beloved Romeo, an English Bulldog, was literally one very sick puppy. He developed Aspiration Phneumonia. Our veterinarian bills were quite high. We even had to have Romeo transferred out to a University Hospital. We held our breath, as we received the invoice. We were delighted to know that Trupanion received our claim the day after Romeo came home. Within 10 days we received a check for 90% of the claim. I have a friend, who is a physician, she joked that it would be a miracle if human insurance claims were paid as quickly. WE ARE GRATEFUL TO TRUPANION!!!

Fast and easy
Our vet has direct billing so it is quick and very helpful to pay only the balance not the full vet bill

cat care
Young 2 year old cat with unspecified gastro disturbance. Cat ahd to be hospitalized in speciality hospital and requires follow up testing and care.
Monthly Cost
Monthly cost varies due to multiple factors including: species, breed, age at enrollment, gender, and postal code.
Coverage
One simple plan covers new injuries and illnesses, hereditary, congenital, and chronic conditions—once the deductible is met, Trupanion pays 90% of the remaining invoice.
To view a full list of inclusions and exclusions, check out our sample policy here.
Payout Limits
Unlimited lifetime payouts on eligible conditions with no payout limits-ever.
Deductible
You can choose your deductible from $0 – $1000, in $5 increments, to fit your budget.
Trupanion offers a lifetime, per condition deductible meaning that once the deductible is met for an eligible condition, you never have to meet it again. That condition is covered for life. This is great for chronic conditions that can span the entirety of a pet’s life such as allergies or cancer.
Age Limits
All pets under 14 years old can enroll.
Once enrolled, pets stay insured regardless of age.
Waiting Period
Accidents: 5 days
Illnesses: 30 days
Other providers may have additional waiting periods for congenital conditions like hip dysplasia, Trupanion does not.
Exclusions
Trupanion was developed to protect you and your pet from unexpected illnesses and injuries. That means we don’t cover “predictable” care costs that you can plan ahead for, like:
Examination fees
Wellness and preventive care
Elective, or cosmetic procedures
Sales tax, where applicable
Like all pet insurance providers, Trupanion does not cover pre-existing conditions. Whichever insurer you choose, it pays to enroll early!
*Terms and conditions apply. Please view your sample policy for complete coverage details.
Trupanion was founded in 2000 with the goal to help pet owners plan for the unexpected and take the cost out of the care equation.
