What dog insurance plans also cover dental?

We believe that each dog tooth is important, not just the four canines. That’s why Fetch offers comprehensive dental insurance for oral diseases and injuries.

How much does dog insurance cost?

Using the same data points that power our patent-pending tool, Fetch Forward™, we determine the most accurate pricing based on your pet’s breed, age and location.

Heads up: Our dog insurance plans are designed to work for you. On average, Fetch dog insurance plans cost around $35 per month, but you can customize your rate. Pull these levers to adjust your monthly payment:

Maximum annual payout

This number is the maximum dollar amount you can be paid back per policy year. The higher your max annual payout, the more you'll pay per month.

Deductible

You're responsible for paying this fixed dollar amount before your insurance kicks in. Higher deductible plans have lower monthly premiums.

Reimbursement

Or, the percentage of each covered vet bill you’ll be paid back before you meet your deductible. The higher your reimbursement rate, the more you’ll pay per month.

Here's another bonus: There's no sign-up fee, and you can cancel anytime.

How do I start a pet insurance quote?

Figuring out what your monthly plan would cost is simple. Just input your email and answer a couple of questions about your pet and location to get your quote.
