Pet Insurance FAQ'S
- What are the principles of pet insurance?
Hot Topics
- What is not covered by my pet insurance policy?
- There are a number of situations in which your pet will not be covered by a pet insurance policy.
- What is the maximum payout per year?
- Every insurance company varies and you will need to refer to one particular insurer to find out their policy on this matter.
- What is a select breed dog?
- There are a number of ‘select breeds' which are identified by pet insurance companies as breeds which incite higher veterinary costs than other breeds, in the same way that some dogs cost more to feed. Therefore if you have what is considered to be a select breed dog, your insurance will incur a supplementary insurance premium.
- Am I covered for boarding fees?
- Most standard pet insurance policies will cover you in this instance. If you are hospitalised and cannot be at home to look after your pet, you will be covered for the cost of boarding your pet at a licensed kennel. Alternatively your insurance company will contribute towards the cost of homecare with a friend if you are hospitalised for more than 4 days.
- How do I make a claim with pet travel insurance?
- You will need to send a claim form completed by you and your vet together with the invoice for your travel booking, as issued by the travel agent, tour operator or other holiday sales organisation.
