I am very satisfied.
I have tried other pet insurers. Trupanion stands up to its claims -- and mine.

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.

Great coverage
My dog had pancreatitis and possible Cushings. Trupanion paid exactly as promised. After the $100 deductible and office charge $59, Trupanion paid 90% of the bill. You can decide upon which deductible amount and the deductible is per incident (illness/accident), not each time, so very reasonable. The staff at Trupanion is very friendly and caring. They kept in touch and let me know the process during this hard time.
I would recommend Trupanion!

Great service so far
I have had pet insurance for my Yorkshire Terrier since he was a puppy. Sometimes I wonder if I would have been better off putting the money in a savings account and how great the service would be if something did happen. I put in my first claim last month and I was happily surprised. Trupanion treated the claim sincerely as they were trying to help me and my pet. I did not get any skeptical questioning and the claim was processed quick and easily. It was very reassuring to know that it does work like it says it does and heaven forbid something bigger goes wrong I will have coverage. I hear of my friends and their giant vet bills thousands of dollars and I have peace of mind that most of mine will be covered if needed. Great service so far and pleasently surprised.

The experience has been good.
There was a problem receiving my checks. Too much time elapsed between my vet visits and receiving the checks. After my veterinarian spoke to the insurance company, the issue was resolved. This delay was not to my pets best interest or mine.

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.
