Frequently asked questions

  • What does pet insurance cover?

    Pet insurance covers your pet if they need treatment for an accident or illness.

    The amount of cover you get depends on the type of pet insurance and what limits you choose. Find out more about the different types of pet insurance.

    With Petsure pet insurance, your pet’s declared accepted conditions are covered for the life of your policy, as long as you continue to renew each year.

    Petsure cover includes:

    • Vet fees
      > Behavioural treatment
      > Complementary therapy
      > Dental accidents
      > Euthanasia
      > MRI/CT scans
      > Cruciate ligaments
    • Emergency care
    • Third party liability for dogs

    You can also add on optional extras like

    • Travel and Holiday cover
    • Dental Illness
    • Missing Pet cover
    • Farewell cover
  • What won't be covered by pet insurance?

    Some of the things Petsure pet insurance doesn’t cover include:

    • Routine and preventative treatments (like flea and worming)
    • Vaccinations
    • Neutering
    • Routine teeth cleaning
    • Routine or investigative tests (unless to diagnose a new or worsening condition covered under your policy)
  • How much does pet insurance cost?

    The cost of pet insurance is different for each pet and is based on your chosen vet fee limit, excess, bill share, and cover options.

    Where you live, your pet’s age, breed, and conditions, to name but a few, can also affect the price of your cover.

    It can be tricky to decide what annual vet fee limit to get with your pet insurance. Here’s what can help you choose the vet fee limit for your pet’s cover:

    • Researching what conditions can affect each breed and the average cost to treat these conditions
    • Checking what your local vet charges for emergency treatment in case your pet has an accident
  • Is pet insurance worth it?

    It’s completely your choice whether to buy pet insurance.

    Remember, there’s no NHS for pets if they’re poorly or get in a scrape. So you’ll have to pay for everything yourself if you don’t have vet fee cover to put towards their treatment costs.

    Having cover gives some owners peace of mind that their best pet pal is protected if they fall ill.

    Pet insurance can also give you benefits and options beyond vet fees, such as emergency care and money towards advertising your missing pet. Discover why having dog insurance and cat cover is important.

  • Does pet insurance cover dental treatment?

    Petsure pet insurance includes cover for dental accidents as standard.

    Your pet won’t be covered for routine and preventative treatments such as a scale and polish. Unless this is to relieve suffering due to dental illness and you’ve bought our optional dental illness cover.

  • Can I get cover to travel with my pet?

    You can add Travel and Holiday cover to your Petsure policy for trips in the UK and overseas.

    This gives you cover for:

    • Up to 183 days each policy year (max 90 days per trip)
    • Vet fees abroad up to your chosen vet fee limit
    • Emergency repatriation of your pet while abroad or in the UK
    • Trip cancellation because of your pet (up to £5,000 per person)
  • When should I take out pet insurance?

    Accidents can happen at any time and the risk of falling ill increases as your pet ages.

    Having pet insurance in place as soon as possible can give you the reassurance they’re protected and enjoy living their best life.

    Many pet insurers won’t take on new pets after a certain age, which is usually 8 for dogs and 10 for cats.

    Petsure has no upper age limit and can cover your puppy or kitten from four weeks of age.

    You can also switch with no break in cover if you’re moving on a like-for-like basis from another provider.
