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.

Pet saver
Extremely easy to file a claim. Just still don't like how high the premiums are.

Trupanion survey
Did not realize how the deductible worked and need to determine when Tupanion will start to cover incurred costs.

Trupanion is awesome!!
Our 2 1/2-year-old Lab, Tank, did what most Labs do - ate something he shouldn't. He literally snatched a corn cob from my husband's hand and swallowed it before we could fish it out of his mouth. A few weeks pass and Tank is not feeling well. We quickly learned that a cob can take its time leaving a dogs' stomach. We take him to the local emergency veterinary hospital, and they confirm that the cob has found its way to his intestines. We had to transfer him to another emergency hospital as the first did not have a surgeon available. After two separate hospital visits, a surgery and a couple of days in recovery in hospital, Trupanion paid a good portion of the bill. This relieved a great worry from us, emotionally and financially. I touched based with customer service to let them know about the hospital transfer. As always, the CSR was friendly and helpful. One hospital was able to direct-bill, while I had to submit the first visit (new hospital still coming online). It's been less than a week since this all took place and the claims are paid. Tank is home, healthy but not happy about the cone, and we don't have to worry about how we are going to pay for it all. Make thanks to Trupanion. I tell every pet owner they should invest now.

Grateful for Trupanion!
Trupanion has saved my best friends life more than once. We are grateful to Trupanion for everything they do.
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.
