Congratulations on welcoming a new dog into your life! This is just the beginning of a beautiful relationship. And while you’re planning all of your upcoming adventures, it’s a good time to think about your pup’s future health, too.
That's where Fetch Pet Insurance can help. As the only pet insurance provider trusted by the #1 animal brand, Fetch, we want to ensure your pup is always able to get the best care.
And for the pet parents who may not have considered pet insurance before, we've got you! Here are all the reasons you should sign up for dog insurance and how it works.
Life with dogs (and cats, too) means that anything is possible — be prepared so you can always agree to the best care for your dog. Fetch Dog insurance is there to cover vet bills when your pup is sick or hurt.
Pet insurance is a great option for so many reasons. It gives you the freedom to agree to expensive procedures, medications and care, knowing that we'll cover up to 90% of your unexpected vet bills. And Fetch Dog Insurance is the most comprehensive, too. Here's a list of what we cover:
Every dog's plan is different, but on average Fetch Dog Insurance plans cost around $35 per month (and can be even lower for puppies). Another bonus: there are no sign-up fees or add-ons, and you can cancel anytime — though we'd love for you to stay.
Using the same data points that power our patent-pending tool, Fetch Forward™, we determine the most accurate pricing based on your pet’s breed, age and your location. However, your monthly price is customizable. Here's how you can make your monthly payment work for you:
Maximum annual payout
This number is the maximum dollar amount you can be paid back per policy year. The higher your max annual payout, the more you'll pay per month.
Deductible
You're responsible for paying this fixed dollar amount before your insurance kicks in. Higher deductible plans have lower monthly premiums.
Reimbursement
Or, the percentage of each covered vet bill you’ll be paid back before you meet your deductible. The higher your reimbursement rate, the more you’ll pay per month.
Unfortunately, no pet insurance providers cover pre-existing conditions, which are injuries or illnesses that were treated before signing up for pet insurance.
Since pre-existing conditions aren’t covered by any dog insurance provider, we recommend signing your dog up for pet insurance as a puppy so that any future illnesses or injuries can be covered. If you adopted a senior dog, you should still sign up as soon as possible because our Fetch Forward tool predicts that many pets start experiencing injuries and illnesses around 7 years old.
Once you sign up for pet insurance, there’s a brief waiting period of up to 15 days. After the waiting period is over, you’re free to begin submitting claims. Here’s how it works:
Step one: Visit any licensed vet in the U.S. or Canada.
Step two: Submit a claim on our app or website by taking a photo of your vet documents. Fetch will handle the rest.
Step three: Get paid back! If you’re using direct deposit, you can receive up to 90% of your vet expenses back in just 2 days.
We’ve already mentioned that Fetch Pet Insurance is the most comprehensive, but feel free to browse our comparison pages to see how we stack up against other pet insurance providers.
