Testimonials

Embrace is the best pet insurance we've ever found. Our plan pays 80% after we meet our deductible and we have never been denied a claim. And they pay 80% of the price we have paid, not just what they "allow". I love that you can submit your own claim via their app with just a snapshot of your claim form and the receipt from the vet. They take it from there, never asking for any clarification from us. If they need any additional info, they contact the vet. All we have to do is wait a week or two and the check is in our mailbox. Love, love, love Embrace!

"I have had Embrace pet insurance for a pet in the past and now my corgi. I previously had another pet insurance with a past pet that did not cover as much and was about the same price. Embrace pet insurance has always been amazing to me and my animals, from customer support all the way through coverage. One large incident I'd like to bring up is that my corgi puppy recently had an accident and NEEDED orthopedic surgery on her metatarsal and tarsal where they'd put a plate in and fuse bones. The accident happened on a Thursday night, Embrace gave us pre approval for a $5.5k surgery by Tuesday the next week and she had surgery the next day."

"Embrace Insurance is the way to go for your fur baby. My puppy Stella ate raisins and became very sick. She had to be hospitalized for 48 hours. Embrace treated us like family members. My claim precert was pushed through expeditiously so I knew exactly what my out of pocket expenses would be."
