Our Customers Say It Best!
“We have unfortunately had several instances where we had to file fairly major claims for our dog with AKC Pet Insurance and each time they have been very quick with the claims process. When I’ve had questions about an issue their team has been very helpful in responding. I wasn’t sure about getting pet insurance to begin with but they certainly have made the experience worth the expense.”
John B. March 2021
“There is always someone to answer the phone. The voice at the other end of the line is helpful and encouraging. My dog had her leg amputated and the costs were enormous. If I didn't have AKC Pet Insurance it would be a huge problem. But I do have it. While it's taken longer than usual for payment received (Covid!), I really trust these folks. I highly recommend them.”
Margo Dean January 2021
“I had just bought the insurance 2 weeks before my dog was injured. They were very responsive and I was sent a check from them within a week of opening a claim with them. I has since filed 2 more claims and received a check for both of them. I highly recommend them!”
RS January 2021
“I can't say enough good things about AKC Pet Insurance! It was so easy to file a claim and when I had questions, they went above and beyond to make me feel at ease and give me "tips" to help the claim process move along. I wish my normal health insurance was this smooth. I will certainly recommend them to anyone looking for a good pet insurance company.”
