First time we've insured with Animal Friends, accident-only policy. Never needed to make a claim (and hopefully never will!) so no idea about their performance. Free video vet service is a nice addition Reviewed on: 1st October 2024

Great company; helpful, informative, understanding.

Your pet is #1 on their agenda. It's as important to them as it is to you to make sure your pet's healthcare is covered! Kind, helpful, informative, understanding, and they support so many great charitable causes! Reviewed on: 28th September 2021

always a great service. Tips and advice through emails all the time, even things you may not have even considered. I would recommend them. Also I had a trouble free claim with them on my claim, which eased all the stress of my sick cat. Reviewed on: 25th September 2021

Great service

They are one of the cheaper insurances I could find with the most benefits. The Joii vet app also gives peace of mind without having to worry as a first time kitten owner. Reviewed on: 23rd September 2021

An Insurance that makes me feel Assured

When Max came to live with us a friend recommended Animal Friends Insurance. We have now been with the company four years. The premiums are good value with a reliable customer service. We do feel assured that if we needed to make a claim Animal Friends would do their best to give us the help needed. Reviewed on: 15th September 2021

Good value pet insurance that supports animal charities

Following an online search I chose Animal Friends for Dog Insurance. It was reasonably priced and offered the level of cover that I require. The monthly emails are helpful and informative. Reviewed on: 14th September 2021

Great and easy to claim

Very comprehensive. I had to claim and it was very easy. Just online form and the vet did the other section and I was paid later the same day. The actual cover can be very comprehensive and I have super cover covering my more elderly cat. So far so good and I would recommend. I even like the little touches; I.e that they email you and your pet by name! Reviewed on: 14th September 2021
