Making sure you get the best pet insurance for your pet

Buying the cheapest pet insurance can be a false economy if it doesn't give you the cover you need. Check the policy details carefully before you take out cover as you may find that for you, the best pet insurance might not be the lowest priced. At esure we don’t just provide competitive, reliable insurance cover, we also run a 24 hour helpline which gives advice and counselling in the event of bereavement, dog-napping or if your pet strays. We do this because we recognise that pets are family members, not possessions.

INTERESTING FACT: 72% of pet owners say their pet is their best friend, according to customer research done by Hills Pet Nutrition. 

Settling direct with your vet

Some insurers will pay your vet bills direct, rather than you having to pay them and then claim the money back. When looking for the best pet insurance you may find that the cheapest pet insurance companies won't do this, or your vet might not be able to arrange it. If this is important to you, check before you take out cover. esure offers this convenient service as part of our pet cover. We'll also cover your pet abroad if it travels under the PETS passport scheme. If your aim is to find the cheapest pet insurance, this might not be included.
