Saved our dog and our finances
When our dog came down with pancreatits 13 days ago, we expected he would be hospitalized for two days. As his condition worsened and he was slow to respond to treatment, two days turned into nine days. Bills reached $6000.00. Trupanion processed our claims within 36 hours, and averted what would have been a short term financial disaster. Best of all, our pup is home and on the mend.

Thanks, Pets Best!
I have filed 2 claims with Pets Best, and they were for the same dog! She is normally healthy, and has never had problems except for these 2 incidents. Both times they processed my claims quickly and efficiently, and when I spoke to them on the phone regarding a separate issue they were extremely helpful. They reimbursed me ~$88 on a $220 bill, and ~$1800 on a ~$2300 bill. Good deal, and it definitely gives me peace of mind where my babies are concerned. So, to summarize:
Great customer service, easy to understand reimbursements, and very affordable. Thanks!

HORRIBLE
I signed up with Embrace - immediately upon reading the reviews on this page. I went for the best plan possible - at almost $60 a month. Ironically, there is only a $200 max that they will cover under "wellness". According to Embrace - "wellness" covers checkups when your dog is sick from parasites, spaying and neutering, vomiting, and lethargy. I had WAY better coverage under AKC years ago. Now I am out over $1000 - between vet bills and payments to this sorry excuse for a Health Insurance.

Can't say enough positive things about Embrace!
I have a new goldendoodle puppy and am a typical overprotective and nervous parent. It's been years since I've raised a puppy from this age and the last time I did, pet insurance didn't exist.
The peace of mind that Embrace provided to me in our first few weeks together has been amazing. Their customer service representatives (Thank you Jessica and Adrienne!) were so helpful and attentive to every question and email I sent.
I recently submitted a Wellness Claim as was fully reimbursed for all charges on Lucy's first visit to the vet. I had just purchased my policy and thought for sure they would tell me that I had to wait... NOPE! I just received my deposit notification -- FULLY reimbursed. It just doesn't get any better than that!
I could not be happier with Embrace and I highly recommend it to anyone who has pets.

Great Customer Service
We recently purchased Embrace Insurance in June 2009 and in July 2009 we had to take our dog "Cody" to the Vet because he was chewing his right hind foot and it appeared to be infected. The "Claims Embracers" were all very deligent and prompt in handling the processing of our claims. I wish I got such service from my own Medical Insurance. THANK YOU!

I have been pleased with ASPCA for my 2 bostons
I have 2 boston terriers who, thankfully, have been quite healthy. In the past 3-4 yrs. I have only had 3 claims. I like the choice of levels of coverage....my only disappointment (and I have not needed it yet) is that I did not understand about 'continuing coverage'. I will be adding that to my premium at renewal for both of my boys. The claims that have been accepted and paid (after my deductible) were completed quickly without hassle. My entire purpose to have pet insurance is to make sure I am not faced with not being able to give the proper care due to cost of the vet services. I feel secure having the insurance.

Kennel Cough
My dog had a significant case of Kennel Cough and we had to bring him to our vet. There were a few things that she had to look at and it wound up costing us a few hundred dollars. I am glad we had the ASPCA pet insurance because it did cover a significant amount of the total bill (after the deductable was paid). The ASPCA pet insurance plan is great as long as its not a pre-existing issue. Our dog has an ongoing ear issue due to a food allergy that we had treated by our vet prior to getting the insurance and when we submitted a claim for that they rejected it. I would suggest that if you buy a puppy/kitten, and can afford it, to purchase a pet insurance plan but definitely do your homework first.

Very pleased
My cat ingested a toxic plant and was hospitalized for three nights on an IV. (Two nights in an emergency clinic and one night at my regular vet clinic). I faxed a claim to Trupanion in the morning the day after my cat's release from hospital and received an email in the afternoon the same day to let me know my claim had already been processed. 90% of my costs minus the physical exam fee were reimbursed and I received the funds within a week (almost $500). Very fast service.
