Our verdict

PetInsurer.com suits UK and European pet owners who want to compare cover in one place, starting at $9.95 a month. It is a comparison site rather than an insurer, so the policy wording, limits and excess sit with the provider behind the quote you accept.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • A monthly model spreads the cost of cover across the year
  • Pets across the age range 2 months to 18 years can be quoted for cover
  • Claims run through email, fax and app, so a claim does not depend on reaching anyone by phone

Cons

  • Support runs on email and help centre only, with no phone line listed
  • Excess starts at $50 to $500 on the PetFirst plans quoted, which is money you keep
  • As a comparison site it passes you to a provider, so cover terms vary by quote

Safety of your money

PetInsurer.com is a comparison site, not the company that carries the risk. It gathers quotes and hands you to the provider behind the plan you pick. Because the site sits between you and the insurer, the cover limit, excess and exclusions that matter come from that provider's wording. Read the policy document for the quote you accept rather than relying on the comparison page alone.

Who runs it

The site is run by Compare Pet Insurance Services, Inc., which is based in the United States. It is licensed in the United States states, with per-state licence numbers listed. Support reaches the company through email and help centre, so written answers are the main route for questions about a quote, a policy limit or a claim in progress, while the cover itself sits with the provider named on the policy.

Frequently asked questions

What does a pet policy cost on PetInsurer.com?+

Cover starts at $9.95 on the site, close to the pet insurance median of €9 across the ranking. Policies run on a monthly basis, so the cost is spread rather than paid in one go. The final price depends on the provider and the plan you accept.

Is PetInsurer.com an insurer?+

No. It is listed as a comparison site, which means it gathers quotes from providers and passes you to the one behind the plan you choose. The policy wording, cover limit and exclusions belong to that provider, not to the comparison site.

How much would I have to pay if my pet needed treatment?+

That depends on the plan. The PetFirst plans quoted carry an annual policy limit and an excess starting at $50 to $500, the part of a claim you cover yourself. Check the limit and excess on the specific quote before you accept it, since they differ between providers.

How do I make a claim?+

Claims are handled through email, fax and app, giving you written routes and an app rather than a single phone line. Keep the invoices and paperwork from your vet, as those are what the provider will ask for. Each provider has its own claims process, so read the terms for your quote.

Which pets can be insured?+

The age range runs from 2 months to 18 years, so a kitten can be covered from a young age and a senior pet can still be quoted for cover. Cover is pet only, so there is nothing here for home, car or life policies, and each provider sets its own age limits.

Is PetInsurer.com regulated?+

The site is licensed in the United States states, with per-state licence numbers listed, and the company behind it is Compare Pet Insurance Services, Inc. in the United States. That registration is worth checking against your own state's record before you accept a quote, since the policy wording still comes from the provider.

Can I pay monthly instead of yearly?+

Monthly payments are available, which is why the site is set on a monthly basis. Spreading the cost makes a policy easier on cash flow, though a lump sum can work out cheaper over a full year. Weigh the monthly figure against paying a yearly sum before you commit.

How do I get help from the company?+

Support runs through email and help centre, so email and the help centre are the documented routes. There is no phone channel listed, which matters if you would rather talk a claim through. For a claim in progress, go to the provider named on your policy.
