Pet Insurance

Dog Insurance

Our best cover for
your best friend

Long- or short-haired, pedigree or mixed, we know your dog means the world to you. That’s why we’ve put so much thought into crafting cover that cares for them as much as you do. 

This cover pays vet bills for illnesses that develop and injuries that occur while insured with us, this means if your pet needs one-off, reoccurring or ongoing treatment your pet will be covered.

Will I pay more as my pet gets older?

Cats and dogs, like humans, are more prone to illness and ailments as they get older. Your price will increase at renewal because of this likelihood and can also increase significantly when a claim has been paid. New developments in diagnosis and treatments have meant that vets can give them even better care, which is great news for your family pet but means an increase in vet costs.

If your pet is aged nine or over, you will be asked to pay extra excess when making a claim. Rest assured, as long as you renew your policy with us and there’s no break in cover, we reinstate your vet fees limits. So, if while insured with us, your pet starts to develop an ongoing illness, like diabetes or arthritis, or a reoccurring illness like an ear infection, you can continue to claim up to your chosen vet fee limit each year.

If you shop around and try to switch providers, you’ll probably find that they won’t cover pre-existing illnesses or injuries (known as pre-existing conditions) and cover for ongoing conditions will be lost.

Up to £12,000 each
year in vet's fees

To make things simpler for you, we can pay your vet directly as long as they’re set up to receive our payments.

Emergency
dental care

If emergency dental care is required (as a result of injury), we’ll help your dog return to health with the treatments they need.

Up to £3,000,000
of liability cover

Even the best-trained dogs can get off the lead sometimes. If your dog’s actions affect a third party, we’ll cover you up to the limits of your policy.
