Dog Insurance

Our Covered For Life^® policies are designed to cover long-term, chronic or recurring illness, as well as short term illness and injury. As long as the policy is renewed each year without a break, we will continue to provide cover for conditions such as diabetes or arthritis which require treatment over a long period of time, often for life. Other insurance policies, such as time-limited policies, will limit the time you can claim for each illness of injury.

Time Limited Pet Insurance, such as our 12 month Essential policy, is designed for pet owners requiring a less comprehensive policy. It is important to remember that each illness and injury on our Essential policies are covered for a maximum of 12 months. Should your dog suffer from the same condition again you will not be able to claim for it.

Insurance is designed to cover unforeseen incidents so we don’t cover the general costs of looking after a pet such as vaccinations, spaying/neutering, worming, and flea treatments. Unfortunately we are also unable to cover any conditions that occurred before the start of your policy.

Did you know that you’re more likely to claim on your pet insurance than your car or home policy? Unfortunately, pets are just as susceptible to illness and injury as we are – in fact, 90% of the claims Petplan pays out are for illness, rather than accident. Insurance can help you ensure your dog gets the best care possible.

There are a number of factors that affect how much insurance for your dog will cost, such as your dog’s age, breed and where you live. Our premiums are carefully calculated for each individual pet so why not get a quote and select the policy that suits your needs.
