Frequently asked Questions

FAQ Icon

Petplan offers two types of pet insurance policies for dogs and cats: Essential Plan and Covered for Life®. The former offers time-limited insurance, focused on providing short-term help with vet bills. The latter offers lifetime cover, providing support for vet bills for ongoing conditions.

PetPlan has a one-size-fits all policy for rabbits under its Rabbit Plan, offering up to £4,000 per year towards vet bills.

You can also find policies for horses and exotic pets on Petplan’s website.

Petplan is one of the few insurance providers that may cover a pet with pre-existing conditions. PetPlan may offer a policy that excludes treatment for conditions that are a result of the pre-existing condition. They can remove that exclusion if specific criteria are met, such as if your pet has been clear of any symptoms for a set timeframe.

They may also choose to cover the pre-existing condition outright, if they believe the condition is fully resolved and unlikely to happen again. However, Petplan may elect to not cover your pet’s pre-existing condition if they believe it is likely to affect your pet for the rest of their life.

Petplan provides cover for cats, dogs, rabbits, horses and a few exotic pets.

Petplan has an impressive claim approval rate of 97%, with over £5 million paid every week to help owners get the care their pets need and deserve.

It can take up to 14 working days for Petplan to process a claim.

Yes, Petplan may be able to pay your vet directly, although you can ask to receive reimbursement yourself if that is preferred.

Petplan offers up to £2,000,000 in third party liability cover for dogs and cats across all policies.
