Peace of Mind for Pet Parents
I couldn’t be happier with my experience using Spot Pet Insurance. From the start, their sign-up process was simple, transparent, and user-friendly. I appreciated the ability to customize my coverage and deductible to fit both my pet’s needs and my budget. What truly sets Spot apart is their exceptional customer service. Whenever I had questions about coverage or claims, their support team was responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring—exactly what you want when you're stressed about your pet’s health. Submitting claims is straightforward through their website, and the turnaround time has been impressively fast. I’ve had a couple of unexpected vet visits, and Spot reimbursed me quickly and fairly. It’s such a relief knowing I can make healthcare decisions for my pet without financial panic looming in the background. If you’re on the fence about pet insurance, I highly recommend Spot. It’s been a game-changer for our family and given me real peace of mind that my pet will always get the care they deserve.

Easy claim process
Easy claim process, fast reimbursement. I didn’t expect things to be reimbursed this fast so that was impressive. I wish the system let me upload more document after the claim has been initiated. A bit difficult to navigate the communication part as they say to call them but I just needed to email (sending additional invoices, notes from the vet). Hard to find email to send about the claim.

I’m so thankful that we obtained pet insurance through Spot Insurance for our puppy! We have submitted 3 claims, and have been reimbursed 90% within 3 days of submitting them. Great service, and very friendly representatives whenever I’ve had to contact them. Would 100% recommend Spot Insurance. Well worth the monthly fee.

How are My Premiums Calculated?
In general, your premium is based on your pet’s age, your pet’s breed, and where your pet lives. Some other factors that impact your premium are the plan you choose, if you have included preventative care coverage or not, and the discounts for which you are eligible.
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 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.
