Amazing! Easy to use app, quick reviews and reimbursements after submitting all the medical records. They are true to the contract and zero hassle! So happy with Spot insurance for my large breed dog!

Spot is more than reasonably priced for the coverage you get. Very quick returns on reimbursements and great customer service.
First full year on insurance!
Thankfully my young guy has not had anything too horrible; Howe we’ve had a few unexpected issues and I have had no problems submitting his claims nor receiving the reimbursements. They are pretty timely; and I’m very pleased with the knowledge that I have him covered for unexpected issues.. I’m very grateful to know SPOT is in our corner:)
Affordable with Quick Reimbursements
I had another pet insurance through my organization that did not cover what I needed such as dental and decided to look elsewhere and found SPOT to be the best for what they offer. I have researched so many pet insurance companies and SPOT offered more than the other competitors, plus once you submit your vet bill (after you have paid the deductible) the reimbursement process is fast (that's a plus)!! So far, I've had SPOT since the beginning of the year and it has been great especially since I had unexpected vet bills. So, I always recommend them to family and friends...again do your own research.

Could not be happier with this plan
Could not be happier with this insurance plan. They do not make it difficult to get a claim paid and they have been so helpful the two times I have called in with questions. This is excellent insurance and you can tell it is run by people that love pets.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Pet Insurance?

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?
Plans provided by Spot do not cover pre-existing conditions. Â
A pre-existing condition is any injury or illness which occurs or shows symptoms before coverage starts or during a waiting period. A condition is considered pre-existing whether or not it’s been officially diagnosed or treated; all that matters is when it occurred or symptoms first displayed.
However, with pet insurance plans provided by Spot, this doesn’t mean the condition can’t be covered in the future if the condition is curable. An injury or illness that is curable, cured, and free of treatment and symptoms for 180 days will no longer be regarded as pre-existing, with the exception of knee and ligament conditions. If a knee or ligament condition occurs before the coverage effective date or during a waiting period, any future ones won’t be covered.
