Pet Assure

• Cost: Annual plans from $79 to $199
• Monthly plans from $9.95 to $21.95

Since 1995, Pet Assure has been saving pet owners money on every trip to the veterinarian: no waiting periods, no deductibles, and no exclusions for age, pre-existing conditions, or pet breed. As an accredited, "A+" rated company with the Better Business Bureau, you can trust that this service is reputable and responsive with any customer issues that arise.

You should understand that this is not a traditional pet insurance plan. Instead, your fees give you a discount card that can save you 25% on every in-house medical service you need for your pet whether that's an allergy treatment, surgical procedure, or even diabetes management. Because you use the card to save at the time of service, there's no waiting for claims to be processed and reimbursed; in fact, you can combine your discount card with a traditional pet insurance plan from another company to save money right away, while waiting for other coverage to be paid out.

Pet Assure is also one of the only plans on the market that gladly covers all pets, not just cats and dogs. If you've got exotic pets like tarantulas or just big pets like horses, you can still use your Pet Assure discount. Here's what to expect:

• Single: if you have just one cat or other small animal, you'll pay $79/year or $9.95/month. If your pet is a larger animal like a dog or horse, you'll pay $99/year or $11.95/month.
• Family: for an annual fee of $149 or a monthly fee of $16.95, your plan will cover 2-4 animals of any size.
• Unlimited: you can cover every pet in your household for an annual fee of $199 or a monthly fee of $21.95.

Before you decide to purchase a Pet Assure plan, you'll definitely want to check which veterinarians are in their network. In our area, there were more than a dozen in-network vets within a 10-mile radius, but the office we usually used wasn't on the list. This could be a problem if you have a veterinary practice that you love that isn't a participating provider with Pet Assure.

You can try Pet Assure risk-free: they offer a money-back guarantee within 45 days of starting your plan, giving you a full refund with no questions asked once you return your discount card.

Pet Assure is an ideal choice for pet owners who have unusual or hard-to-cover animal companions that might not be eligible for traditional insurance. But, for high-cost procedures, the 25% discount might not be a good deal when compared with what you'd have to pay with a regular pet insurance plan. We recommend that you take a look at the numbers and decide which one is a better fit for your needs, or that you consider using Pet Assure together with traditional pet insurance coverage.
