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. *Terms and conditions apply.

Thanks for Trupanion

I am a pet owner of a 3 1/2 year old english bulldog with a 1/4 mix pug, his name is Bernie. On my first visit with his new Vet they highly recommended pet insurance and had all the brochures so that I could decide, which I did and choose Trupanion, Thank God. Bernie just had TPLO surgery 3 weeks ago, he ruptured his left hind leg ligament. Recovery time will be about 8 - 12 weeks. I am so happy that I made the decision to carry insurance on him when he was just 6 months old, believe me it definitely paid off with his recent surgery and the customer service I have received from Trupanion has been painless and so professional and they truly care. I would highly recommend to anyone to make this choice as I did. Also, submitting my claim was so simple and receiving my reimbursement check within 2 weeks was amazing, it was easier than dealing with my own health Insurance carrier. Thank you Trupanion!!

Excellent Service

We are very pleased with the coverage options offered and those that we selected for our dog. Some friends laughed when we said we had health insurance for our dog but we figured that one major accident (like her getting hit by a car) could cost as much or more than almost ten years of premiums. Well our dog has developed a few other, minor health issues and as far as I am concerned having PetInsurance has already paid for itself. The claim process is easy, and we get reimbursed the covered amounts within a very short time. We highly recommend Trupanion PetInsurance.

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. They believe that the pets—and the veterinary professionals who help them—deserve better. That’s why Trupanion is a proud member of the North American Pet Health Insurance Association.
