I have found SPOT to be the easiest…
I have found SPOT to be the easiest insurance company to work with. They stand behind their promises - quickly - and courteously. I called to see if I had entered a claim correctly, and the agent, while checking, asked how my pet, Yogi, was doing. Simple but caring. I would not hesitate to recommend SPOT. Woof!
Claim was the easiest ever!
It was a little relief in knowing I could be reimbursed for basic health maintenance for my little guy and it was SO SO easy to place my claim. I am very happy with SPOT!
Thankful I got it when I did
I’m really so thankful I picked this up last fall when I did. My cat has always been pretty healthy, and I had previously dropped pet insurance because it felt like I was paying a lot for something I wasn’t using. I had a little more disposable income last fall and decided to sign up for it again after a friend suggested I look into it again - and I’m so glad I did. A few months into coverage, my cat had some very expensive vet visits for a severe food allergy. It was very very scary, and expensive - but being able to get a large chunk of the money spent back through Spot was such a relief. The costs of vet care can be scary, but they’re made a little less so by spot.

Spot pet insurance is a compassionate company. When my puppy was killed in June getting loose from me and running to a pickup truck driving down the street, they paid for at least half of her expenses getting cremated. Archer Veterinary Clinic in Lemont Illinois didn’t charge for the X-ray and gave us many items and locks of hair in special key chains.
After a very expensive emergency with…
After a very expensive emergency with my cat 2 years ago, I made the decision to purchase pet insurance. I was skeptical that a claim would be paid, but I after extensive research, I took a chance with Spot. Wow, am I glad that I did. I had an emergency with one of my cats that required emergency surgery- expensive surgery. This was my first claim, and I was nervous- the moment of truth. I uploaded my documents, Spot secured medical records, and within 2 weeks the claim was processed and paid exactly as it should have been according to the plan that I purchased. This experience confirmed that I made the absolute right decision in choosing Spot to cover my 2 precious cats- they saved Punkins life.
