What about the cheapest North Carolina pet insurance?

You and your pet deserve fair coverage with transparency. It’s tempting to go with the pet insurance option with the cheapest monthly price, but be aware that this can come with hidden catches like cost increases and restricted coverage.

But with Trupanion, your pet comes before everything else.

Will my coverage reduce over my pet's lifetime?

No. Unlike other providers, we don’t decrease your coverage year-to-year, so you can count on top-tier protection for the life of your pet.

Will my price increase simply because my pet gets older?

No. Trupanion is one of the only pet health insurance providers that does not practice birthday pricing. While your cost can still change over time due to things like inflation and advances in veterinary care, Trupanion will never increase it just because your pet gets older..

Will I pay more because I use my coverage?

No. You'll never pay more just for using your coverage and we encourage you to utilize your policy as often as needed. Your Trupanion policy is designed to cover new, unexpected illnesses and injuries for the life of your pet.
