Having a dog with epilepsy can be worrying not just because of the condition but the cost of vetinary care is a real concern. Having insurance cover with Petplan has provided peace of mind that his needs will be tended to and I don't have to worry about cost before accepting treatment. Petplan have been amazing and completely supportive throughout, I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you Petplan! Reviewed on: 27th August 2019

Petplan the only Pet Insurance You Can Rely On

Petplan have always covered each of my pets’ problems. I know that whenever any of my cats are ill I don’t have the additional worry of whether my claim will be paid. They are so reliable that my vets do not request payment beforehand and Petplan are the only company they will claim directly from as they are confident they will cover the costs. I wouldn’t use any other Pet Insurance company. Reviewed on: 27th August 2019

Great service and always happy to help

We have been with petplan for a while now for both our rabbits and dog. Petplan have always been on the other end of the phone to help with any queries. We had to make claims for one of our rabbits who sadley died and a claim for our puppy. Without petplan we would have been in abit of a predicament money wise. Reviewed on: 27th August 2019
