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.

Worth Every Penny
(Less one star based on an instance where I was not advised of a change in Trupanion's policy regarding one item, which caused a bit of time and effort to resolve to my satisfaction.)
Dear Trupanion,
Thank you so much for your prompt response - it's been less than a day since I submitted my claim to you, and I just got an email saying that it's been processed! More, thank you for being there. When I first signed up with your company last summer, I was kind of taken aback afterwards - the policy felt like a luxury that I could barely afford. And - also somewhat unnecessary - still 13 years old and insurable then, up until that point my cat Titania had been perfectly healthy. However I have to say that because I took that jump to get on board with Trupanion, Titania has been pretty well saved from 'economic euthanasia'.
Since getting the policy, I have saved several thousand dollars at least. So far you have seen her through two fractured teeth, both a heart murmur and arrhythmia, a severe kidney infection, and what appears to be the start of kidney disease. With your help, Titania has gotten the excellent care she has needed, and so the quality of her life right now is actually quite good. In retrospect, taking the initial risk to purchase a policy was such a right decision.

My Great Dane puppy Kayos & his experience
Kayos a Great Dane puppy had an everted third eyelid. He was scheduled for surgery m2 days later, trupanion worked with me to get the preapproval done. He had his surgery and about 8 days after submitting the claim I received my reimbursement check. My first experience with pet insurance and in hindsight everything went pretty smooth. Kayos's eye has healed and he no longer has to wear the cone of shame. He is back to his happy healthy self. He is such a marmaduke. Thank you Trupanion for your patience and help during this stressful time.
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.
