Great service consistently

5
My dog has Sddisons disease which will need life long treatment monthly. Pet Plan have paid out promptly every month and. The process is so easy. It was worth paying for a higher quality policy for my beloved poodle. Reviewed on: 16th August 2021

Best cover

5
My dog was recently diagnosed with diabetes and petplan have supported us every step of the way so far I can't fault them I have insured my dog with them basically from day one. Would recommend to anyone Reviewed on: 16th August 2021

Great communications and pay on time

5
Whether going direct through the vets or applying online after paying the vet ourselves, PetPlan always pay on time but if there's something holding it up such as info from the vet they keep you informed. It's not cheap but you get what you pay for. It's reassuring as our dogs get older to know that costs will be mostly covered. Reviewed on: 13th August 2021

Peace of mind

5
I have always used Petplan because I don't need to worry that they may withdraw cover when my pet reaches a certain age. Any claims are usually settled quickly. Reviewed on: 13th August 2021

Great company

5
No hassle very straight forward to claim they make it easy and stress free definitely recommend them Reviewed on: 13th August 2021

Best insurance out there

5
Petplan is amazing. They truly care about their clients and pets and I feel s confident recommending them. They are very clear on their coverage, and very helpful when you need clarification. My cat is accident-prone so their Classic Covered for Life policy has been a literal lifesaver. Thank you Petplan! Reviewed on: 13th August 2021

Best Pet Insurance for my animals

5
I have insured my pets for 10yrs with Petplan. Always a great service. Very pleased! Reviewed on: 13th August 2021

Covers a lot of different things you may encounter when you own a pet, it's very reassuring to know what I am covered for

5
Very detailed breakdowns of your cover and overall price for the insurance is something I am beyond happy with, luckily I haven't had to make any claims on my insurance, hopefully will stay that way for a long time but for me it's the reassurance of my companion is safe and in good hands if he ever needs it Reviewed on: 12th August 2021

Brilliant company

5
My springer spaniel was diagnosed with Hip Dysplasia at 7 months old, petplan have covered everything from his medication, scans, orthopaedic specialist appointments and physiotherapy. Very easy to claim and they pay the vets directly. Also had separate issues and they've settled quickly and easy. They also sent me an orthopaedic dog bed free of charge after the diagnosis which was lovely. Reviewed on: 12th August 2021

Great plan

Great plan and accepted by vets without having to pay up front then claim back like some do Reviewed on: 12th August 2021
