Happy Pet Parents Trust Spot
Easy to deal with insurance company.
Spot pet insurance has been very easy to deal with so far. They completed my claim within just a couple of days. Highly recommend.
Easy to Use
Maybe they will have direct billing in the future, but it was easy to upload/email the invoices and veterinary notes. Reimbursement was sent within a week. The only thing I disliked was having to call poison control, which charges in USD. Since they don't do conversions, they only paid what it was in Canadian dollars.

10/10, no notes
I have zero complaints about Spot. In fact, I swear by them and strongly recommend. They process the claims really efficiently; one time, I submitted a quote for pre-approval on a Wednesday night and on Thursday morning I had the pre-approval letter. It’s very easy to get someone on the phone too and they’re all helpful and friendly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about pet insurance? Don't worry, we've got you covered.
What Does Pet Insurance Cover?
Pet insurance can put money back in your pocket for veterinary costs needed to diagnose, treat, and manage an eligible condition. Exams and rechecks, x-rays, ultra-sounds, bloodwork, surgeries, stitches, medication, and prescriptions, and even prescription diets are all examples of costs that can be claimed for if they are used to treat or diagnose a covered condition.
When is the ideal time to get pet insurance for my pet?
Plans provided by Spot can insure puppies and kittens 8 weeks and older. We recommend that pets be insured while they are still young; before they develop any “pre-existing conditions”.
What determines the cost of my pet insurance premium?
There are multiple factors that can affect the cost of a pet insurance premium including the age and breed of your pet, your location, and your plan configuration. Spot’s accident-only and accident and illness base plans can be customized by selecting a deductible, reimbursement rate, and annual limit from a variety of options, each which help configure the cost of your monthly premium. Selection of an optional preventive care add-on or eligibility for a multipet discount can also affect the cost of your premium.
What is a Pre-Existing Condition?
A pet’s illness or accident is considered pre-existing if the condition was onset before the pet insurance policy coverage effective dates, or during a waiting period. This means if the first signs or symptoms of a condition showed up before coverage started, it would be considered pre-existing to coverage, even if it was not formally diagnosed. The most common reason why an illness or an accident is not covered by any pet insurance provider is if the condition was present before coverage started. For coverage to be available with almost all types of insurance, the problem must be new and unexpected.
For example, if typical symptoms of allergies (itchy skin, ear infections) were present before the coverage was effective or appeared within the waiting period of the policy, the allergies and related conditions, such as itchy paws and pyoderma, would be pre-existing to coverage.
