Happy Pet Parents Trust Spot
Very professional and easy to submit a claim
I have never had to put a claim in until the last 8 months which totalled two claims. I am very impressed with customer service because on my first claim I need assistance. I put the second claim in early this week and it has been processed already. So far I have had an excellent experience.
Highly Recommend for Peace of Mind!
I recently signed up for pet insurance, and I couldn't be more pleased with the service. The sign-up process was easy, and their customer service team was incredibly helpful in answering all my questions. Having a furry and no furry friend can be unpredictable, but knowing that I have coverage for accidents, illnesses, and even routine care gives me peace of mind. The claims process is simple and quick. Whenever my pet needs treatment, I can rest assured that the insurance will cover a significant portion of the costs. It's comforting to know that I won't have to choose between my pet's health and my finances. Overall, I’m so glad I made the decision to invest in pet insurance. I highly recommend it to any pet owner looking to safeguard their furry companion's health and well-being!

Very responsive
Very responsive! My two cats started having issues (ear infection, vomiting, heart murmur…) and I was getting quite anxious about the piling bills but Spot has been super fast reimbursing me (they say it can take up to 2-3 weeks but they took 1). Thank you Spot for supporting my kitties’ health!
