Healthy Paws Pet Insurance - Never use HEALTHY PAWS
Never use Healthy Paws Pet Insurance. Period.
I’ve been with this company for eight years. In that time, I’ve filed maybe one or two claims, receiving around $400 total in reimbursements. Meanwhile, I’ve been paying monthly premiums that started around $50–$60, gradually increased to $80, and just this week, jumped to $200 per month for both my cats.
One cat’s premium alone went from $50 to $125 overnight. That is completely outrageous — especially considering both of my cats are in perfect health, no chronic conditions, and have had regular checkups, blood work, and clean bills of health.
When I called Healthy Paws to ask what on earth is going on, the rep could not have cared less. There was no concern, no explanation that made sense, and zero willingness to help. It was clear: they’re just taking money from loyal customers who rarely file claims, and they don’t care.
Over the past 7–8 years, I’ve thrown away nearly $7,000 for what? To be blindsided with a 150% rate increase and treated like a number when I asked for help?
This company is unethical, greedy, and not here for pet owners. If you’re shopping for pet insurance, I beg you: do not go with Healthy Paws. They do not deserve your business, and they certainly don’t deserve your

Created a Reddit account to share this year's premium increase on every post or topic re: Healthy Paws. As a loyal customer since 2011, who has been dealing with the already massive price increases every year since 2020/21 but forced to deal with it, I can't anymore and am being forced to cancel. Sharing this for the greater good, and won't even share further details in hope the numbers you see below speaks for itself. Apologies that I cannot seem to post a screenshot. Started around $34 in 2011. These numbers are for 2 small dogs, with the majority of the increase related to the old one).

Healthy Paws Pet Insurance - Healthy Paws Pet Insurance: From Great to Greedy – Stay Away!
I’ve had my two dogs insured with Healthy Paws for almost a decade, and at first, it seemed like a great choice, claims were really easy, they seemed like they cared by sending good will messages after a claim etc. Monthly premiums started at around $30–$40 per pet, then slowly crept up—$50, $70, $90. It was annoying but manageable, thought it was normal as dogs aged and there was also inflation.
Then, things went off the rails, I think it's because they were acquired by a bigger company (that's my speculation tho). My premium was already high at around \~$250/month for both dogs, but now they want **\~$550/month**— more than double overnight! No new benefits, no explanation, just pure corporate greed.
It’s clear they’re taking advantage of longtime customers with older pets, knowing we have fewer options due to pre-existing conditions. It’s a disgusting, predatory practice. They assume people won’t leave, but I’d rather pay another company—even if it costs more—than reward this behavior.
**I'd say avoid Healthy Paws at all costs.**
Also if anybody had changed insurances at a similar point and were happy after please let me know!
