Veterinary Professionals - How we work with you to advance the important work you do
Allowing for more advanced and comprehensive treatment
Petsecure coverage helps make life-saving treatment more accessible to your clients. It's that simple. In fact, insured pet parents spend 40% more at the veterinarian than uninsured pet parents.
Promoting the concept of responsible care
We believe that pet insurance is a critical link in forging a strong circle of pet health awareness, and responsible pet-ownership among pet parents. Our philosophy has been to partner with the veterinary community, involving you in the way we choose to educate the public, administer our pet insurance policies, grow and evolve as a company. We know that working with us to promote pet health insurance demands an increased commitment and effort on the part of veterinarians, however; we also know that pet health insurance not only benefits your clients and their pets, it also empowers you to practice 'best medicine'. Canada pet parents will see greater stability and long-term benefits from this approach.
Investing in the Veterinary community
Petsecure pet health insurance continues to make unprecedented and unmatched investments in the Canadian veterinary community. We focus our marketing dollars and efforts right here in Canada to promote, inform and educate the public about the value and importance of the veterinary profession.

Our largest investment is in training and maintaining a strong team of Territory Managers across Canada. Today Petsecure is the only pet insurance company with resident representatives whose only responsibility is to work with veterinarians, AHTs and other practice staff in their chosen market places.

Bitey's True Tail -
a pet insurance testimonial
"I was relieved because we had Petsecure...The financial weight off our shoulders was immense..."
Read Bitey's Story...
Bitey
Megan Wahl, Toronto, ON
When we got our puppy, Bitey, we were overjoyed and more than ready for the new addition to our family. I had previously talked to my husband about pet insurance, but he didn't really understand the need for it. After the first week we had her, he fully understood.
Little did we know that our adorable puppy was deathly ill. Within two days she was hospitalized due to infection, severe worms, and a case of parvovirus that nearly killed her. We treated her for months, and her vet bill was in the thousands of dollars.
Even with the expense looming over us, I was relieved because we had Petsecure pet insurance. I could focus on my puppy's well being and not worry about how we could possibly afford another huge vet bill! The weight off of our shoulders was immense. I can say that, from personal experience, there is nothing more horrible than already being distraught about your pet's ill health, and then having to worry about how to afford another procedure.
The next morning our phone rang with great news! Shelby was doing much better and had passed the blockage. We could go pick her up and bring her home. During this entire ordeal, we knew the costs were adding up but we couldn't imagine life without Shelby so we authorized any test that needed to be done. The total cost was $1,100. If Shelby would've had to get surgery, it would have cost us anywhere in-between $2,000-$4,000.
I can't say enough about Petsecure pet insurance to friends and family (even strangers in the dog park). Petsecure not only covered Bitey's eye problem, but they were more than helpful, very understanding on the phone, and prompt to issue cheques to cover the costs.
Anyone who thinks that pet health insurance isn't a good idea should heed this story, and anyone who is considering pet insurance should get Petsecure. No insurance company that I have ever dealt with has treated me as kindly, honestly, or promptly as Petsecure.
