Healthy Paws Pet Insurance vs. Fetch

Healthy Paws has been the #1 customer rated pet insurance company in America for over three years. Petplan is also one of the highest rated pet insurers with a consistent top three ranking in customer service satisfaction. Both companies offer excellent accident and illness coverage for dogs and cats.

The only notable omission from Healthy Paws’ and Petplan’s coverage options is that neither company offers wellness / preventative care coverage. Other than that, if you’re looking for world-class coverage for unexpected accidents and illnesses you can’t go wrong with either option.
