Why wellness care is a real necessity – not a nice-to-have.

Pet insurance alone won’t solve your pet’s health care needs, so we worked with vets to create Preventive Essentials – our wellness package. It’s not insurance, but an optional benefit you can add to your plan to get refunds for routine care pets need to stay healthy!

Annual Wellness Exam

100% refund for the exam fee when your pet gets their yearly check-up, vaccines & tests, key for checking head-to-tail health and catching illnesses early.

Vaccines at the Vet

100% refund for important vaccine(s) at the vet each year that help protect your pet against dangerous preventable diseases.

100% refund for your cat or dog’s yearly fecal “poop” test for intestinal worms, and your dog’s yearly blood test for heartworm & tick diseases.

One sneaky way pet insurance companies lower monthly costs is by lowering reimbursement rates. Getting 60–80% cash back compared to 80% or 90% might not seem like a big deal, but it can amount to thousands of dollars over your pet’s life.

Don’t settle for less than 80–90% cash back on covered vet bills.
