Pet Insurance: Peace of Mind for Pet Owners

From the unexpected to the routine, pet insurance gives you the peace of mind you want and your pet the protection they deserve. Whether your furry family member is chasing squirrels, snoozing on the couch, or discovering new ways to surprise you, having the right coverage ensures they can always receive the care they need, without leaving you facing overwhelming vet bills.

What Is Pet Insurance?

Pet Insurance helps reduce the financial burden of unexpected veterinary costs due to illness or injury. It ensures your pet can receive the best available care when they need it most, without forcing you to make difficult decisions based on cost.

Many plans also offer preventive wellness options that cover everyday care, helping you stay ahead of potential issues entirely.

Why Pet Insurance Is More Important Than Ever

The numbers say it all:

• 1 in 3 pets will need unexpected veterinary care every year.
• The cost of veterinary care has more than doubled in the past decade.
• Advancements in veterinary medicine mean more specialists and more treatment options, along with higher costs.
• Every six seconds, a pet parent is handed a bill for more than $3,000.

Whether it’s an emergency surgery, a sudden illness, or long-term treatment, these expenses can add up quickly. Pet insurance helps soften the blow so you can focus on what matters most: helping your pet heal.

What Pet Insurance Can Cover

Policies can include a wide range of medical expenses, such as:

• Accidental injuries (including damage to permanent teeth)
• Ingestion of a foreign object (up to two treatments per policy year)
• Illnesses (like cancer, influenza, or kennel cough)
• Hereditary and congenital conditions
• Behavioral therapy
• Alternative/holistic medicine
• Accidental death
• Euthanasia and anesthesia
• Cremation and burial expenses

From minor mishaps to major medical events, your coverage is there when you need it.

Optional Wellness Coverage

For those who want extra protection, wellness coverage provides fixed payments for routine care, including services that keep pets healthy year-round. These benefits are not subject to your deductible or annual maximum.

Wellness options can include:

• Regular wellness exams
• Vaccinations and boosters
• Heartworm tests and prevention
• Flea and tick prevention
• Routine dental cleanings
• Intestinal deworming
• Prescription medications
• Dietary food and supplements
