There are many pet owners in the UK, but not all of them have pet insurance. Pet insurance provides cover in various ways for a range different of circumstances. So to find out if it’s right for you, here are some of the common conditions that pet insurance covers.

Death by accident or illness. If your pet dies, you can claim the amount of money that you paid for the pet.

Overseas travel cover. If your pet falls ill while you are on holiday abroad, this will cover the veterinary expenses. Some policies also offer cover for accidents your pet may be involved in.

Euthanasia. Some policies offer to pay a contribution to the euthanasia, cremation and burial costs.

Dental cover. Pets sometimes need dental work and a policy with dental cover will cover the costs. Dental policies can sometimes also offer cover for illnesses and accidents.
