Frequently Asked Questions About Fetch Pet Insurance

The key to making sure your pet has the best injury and illness coverage possible is to enroll in pet insurance before they need it. Fetch recommends that you sign up your kitten or puppy to help cover any future illnesses or injuries. Fetch protects pets of all ages, so it’s also important to sign up an older pet before they develop any health issues.
Fetch offers AARP members 10% off Injury and Illness insurance plans every month for life.
Fetch offers the most comprehensive coverage in one simple plan. You can customize certain parts of your policy, like your deductible, annual coverage amount and reimbursement rate, to help make sure your insurance cost fits your budget.
With Fetch, you have the flexibility to choose any veterinarian in the U.S. or Canada.
An Injury and Illness plan covers treatment when your pet gets sick or hurt. For example, if your pet has an emergency vet visit after breaking their tooth, your Injury and Illness insurance plan can help cover the expenses.
 
On the other hand, a Wellness plan is an optional add-on to your policy. It covers routine and preventive care to help your pet stay healthy. Under a Wellness plan, services like annual checkups, vaccinations, heartworm prevention and dental cleaning are all covered. However, you’ll need to have an Injury and Illness plan before you can purchase an additional Wellness plan.
No. Wellness is only available as an add-on to your current pet insurance policy.
Your Injury and Illness coverage has a waiting period that starts the day after you enroll and lasts up to 15 days.
 
There’s also a six-month waiting period before hip and knee injuries can be covered. However, you can waive the waiting period for knee injuries. To do this, you’ll need to have your pet examined by a vet within the first 30 days of your policy to determine that they don’t have any relevant pre-existing conditions.
 
There is no waiting period for your Wellness plan. You can buy it today and use it tomorrow.
