For 9 years I never really needed Trupanion until I di this last year. It has been a life saver (literally). I don't have to make decisions about treatment based on the Vet bills. Additionally having Trupanion means I don't have to front the money for his treatment and then file a claim. Every interaction I have had with Trupanion has been very positive, they understand what we are going through and have been helpful and gracious.

8+ years of peace of mind, followed by incredible service
We’ve been Trupanion policyholders for 8+ years. Like most pet parents, you pay your premiums hoping you never have to actually use the policy. When our boy developed some health issues this year, we had to file our very first claim.
I cannot praise Trupanion enough for how painless they made the entire process. From the immediate email confirmation that our claim was initiated to receiving the reimbursement in the exact same week, the communication and speed were outstanding. Dealing with a sick pet is incredibly stressful, but Trupanion made the financial side of it completely worry-free. Thank you for being there when we needed you!

Trupanion is clear about what is and is not covered, I appreciate the clarity. Any time I have called I have been quickly connected to a helpful pet-loving representative. I cannot imagine how stressful pet ownership would be without pet insurance.

Disappointed after paying for 4 years, you only covered less than 10% of the bill.

Hi Mary,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us here, and for trusting us with your pet's coverage over the years. We understand that this hasn't been the experience you had hoped for, and we'd like to offer some information here that we hope provides some clarification regarding your account.
We know it can be disappointing to see a low payout on your first claim for any eligible new injury or illness. We want you to feel like you're getting the most value out of your coverage plan with us, which is why our deductibles are per-condition for the lifetime of that condition. This means that while initial payouts may be lower as you work to satisfy your deductible for any eligible issue your pet may be dealing with, once that deductible is met, we can help with any related treatment costs without any caps or limits for the rest of that condition's duration - even if it lasts your pet's entire life!
We hope this helps, and our team would be glad to look into your claims with you at anytime to answer any questions you may have regarding their outcome. You can reach us 24/7 at (855)210-8746, or by chatting with us live online. In the meantime, please give your pet lots of extra head pats from us.
Take care,
The Trupanion Team
Trupanion has been wonderful to us. Customer service is very helpful and professional. Thank you

A girl that answered the phone said she could not verify me. We went round and round until I finally hung up. I've had Trupanion since 2019. I called back the next day and had no problem finding out the status of my 2 claims. She told me the 2checks were mailed out that day

My dog, currently, has cancer. She deserves the best care, accompanied by a loyal and efficient guardian in the name of pet insurance. I file claims easily online and receive a message soon after regarding the amount covered by Trupanion. Excellent service!

I have had a great experience with Trupanion. Their phone support is easily accessible, friendly, and helpful, making the entire claims process quick and painless. Also, I appreciate their direct communication/claim processing with certain veterinary clinics. They truly keep their word and pay claims as promised. I recommend them without hesitation.

Really appreciated customer service working with me on changing a diagnosis on the original claim showed the wrong one. Apparently there isn’t a claim for an illiosoas strain, but there is muscle strain so that’s what we ended up using.
Thank you, Trupanion
