Highly Recommend!
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.

Great customer support during my first claim!
This was my first claim and everyone has been super friendly and helpful, whether via email or via phone. The claim was processed uber fast as well. I am ready to recommend you to all of my friends, because without Jeremiah’s insurance I am not sure that I could have afforded his ongoing treatment.
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!

Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about pet insurance and how it works? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.
What is Pet Insurance?
Pet insurance is a type of coverage that helps offset the cost of veterinary care for your pet. It can help in covering vet expenses related to accidents, illnesses, and preventive care. By having pet insurance, you can protect your pet's health and potentially avoid significant financial burdens in case of unexpected medical needs.
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.
How Do I File a Claim?
Click the Claims icon and follow the simple instructions. Don’t forget to take a picture of your invoice and upload it to complete the claim submission.
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.
