How does Embrace Pet Insurance work?

When you sign your pet up with Embrace, you can take them to any vet for the services they need. You are not required to use a vet within a specific network. Once your pet has been treated, you complete the claim form, submit it and are reimbursed for services and treatment covered under your plan.

There are different coverage levels to choose from, and you can downgrade or upgrade your policy at any time. When you insure your pet with Embrace, they are covered for life. Your coverage never drops based on your pet's age or health.

Cancer treatment, behavioral therapy and breed-specific conditions are covered, and the company reimburses you for vet exam fees. Dogs and cats under the age of 15 are eligible for full coverage, and pets older than this are eligible for accident-only coverage.

Embrace has a unique online resource that lists the most popular dog breeds and their most common breed-specific medical conditions. This can help pet owners choose the right coverage for their pets.

Embrace Wellness Rewards program

Embrace’s Wellness Rewards program, which can be added to your policy, reimburses you for preventative care. This includes wellness exams, microchipping, spaying/neutering, vaccinations and flea medication.

There are three annual allowance options for Wellness Rewards reimbursement:

  • $250 allowance per policy year
  • $450 allowance per policy year
  • $650 allowance per policy year

Embrace Pet Insurance coverage

Embrace is transparent about what policies do and do not cover. The company’s website lists the different coverage options and defines eligibility requirements and guidelines for preexisting conditions.

Accidents
Accident-only insurance is only available for pets 15 and older. This plan covers your pet if it ingests a foreign object, is cut or is hit by a car. This plan reimburses you up to $5,000 each year. You’ll pay a $100 deductible once a year, and then you're reimbursed 90% of your veterinary bills when your pet experiences an accident.
Illnesses
Embrace covers every illness from nose to tail with no precondition limitations. This means if your pet is prone to breed-specific illnesses, medical treatment is covered under your plan.
Dental issues
Dental pain can be very uncomfortable and sometimes dangerous for pets. Dental work on animals can also be very expensive. Embrace covers dental treatment for periodontal disease, gingivitis, root canals, crowns, oral masses and extractions. Up to $1,000 in dental work is covered per year.
Cancer and chronic conditions
Cancer coverage is included in all plans and includes everything from the consultation testing and radiation to chemotherapy, surgery, hospitalization and rehabilitation. Cancer treatments are one of the most expensive medical treatments for pet owners, and chemotherapy can run $150 to $600 a dose. Cancer coverage means you can give your pet a fighting chance without worrying about how you’re going to afford it.

Embrace Pet Insurance also covers a wide range of treatments including:

  • Alternative therapies and rehabilitation
  • Behavioral therapy
  • Specialist care
  • Emergency veterinary care
  • Diagnostic testing
  • Hospitalization and surgery
  • Prescription drug coverage
  • Prosthetics and mobility devices

Conditions not covered

The list of what Embrace does not cover is shorter than the list of what it does cover. Basically, Embrace covers treatment and services that are crucial to the health and well-being of your pet, but not cosmetic services, breeding, whelping or preexisting conditions.

How much does Embrace Pet Insurance cost?

Dog insurance costs average around $30 to $40 per month, and cat insurance averages around $15 to $20 per month. Embrace has a one-time enrollment fee of $25 and a $1 monthly processing fee for those who pay monthly.

Embrace lets you customize your plan, so you can choose the deductible, the reimbursement percentage, any riders or optional coverage add-ons and annual maximums. You know your pet and your budget, and Embrace has coverage options to fit them both.

Embrace Pet Insurance FAQ

    I appreciated your employee, thoroughness, professionalism, and patience. She did a great job! This is the second time that I’ve called your customer service. The first time was an outstanding young man who assisted me. I was ready to cancel my policy and he shared some information with me. That changed my mind. He was very friendly. I didn’t feel pressured but informed. Unfortunately, I was tied up and did not complete a consumer report for him if there’s any way you could go back and find his name. I will sincerely appreciate it. He was also excellent so I now have confidence in your company in the pet insurance you offer. I only called twice in both were once again outstanding.

    My dog needed to have PLDA surgery for a torn ligament, and the cost was going to be $5-$6,000, with my co-pay being 10%. On surgery day, I paid my vet in cash for the 10% co-pay, but my best friend put the surgery cost on his credit card because I didn’t have enough room on my card for it. I really felt guilty about that, so the following week I called to check on the processing of the claim (refund deposit), and asked if there was such a thing as getting it expedited. I explained that I had to borrow the funds to pay for surgery, and the claim rep understood my situation, and was so kind and understanding that she put me on hold to see what she could do.

    To my surprise, she was able to reach out to my claim rep and get my claim expedited for me! I was so appreciative. When a company is willing to listen to your situation, understand the predicament you’re in, and try to help resolve it for you, go that extra mile for you, I’m always impressed with that personal touch! There’s so little of it left these days! I will keep my business with a company like this.

      We have been with Embrace for a number of years and never had to use them for anything but when the time came that we needed them they were there. We would submit a claim and within days we were reimbursed. Our pet Bear was diagnosed with Lymphoma cancer in March and we tried treatments hoping to buy more time but unfortunately God had a different plan. We had to stop his suffering one week before his 11th birthday. If you are on the fence about getting insurance for your pet do not hesitate. We will be forever grateful to Embrace

      We first purchased Embrace Pet Insurance when we secured a a kitten Maine Coon. As the days progressed, it became evident that a cat as active as ours should have insurance since she was into everything you can imagine. She is also a jumper! This is the second time we have filed a claim. The first was for an injury when she fell off her cat tower and this one is for a Well Visit. This breed is also famous for hip dysplasia in later years. Our first Maine Coon died a tragic death, and it cost us $5,000.00 in just 3 days that she lived. We learned our lesson quickly.

      Embrace is a solid insurance company and they are very good about approving reimbursements quickly and fairly once the deductible is met. We have been paying for 3 years and in the past year my pup was diagnosed w/ Cushing’s. This insurance has helped even after all the years paid monthly and the deductible. I’m prolly around 4000, just with premium and deductible after paying for 3 years and just starting claims. So I’ve gotten about that much back in vet bills this year. I’m still down even with the vet reimbursements, and given the fact I renew in August and the premium jumps due to claims this year because my pup will need treatment ongoing once stabilized it still will be worth the extra. Eventually I will break even I’m sure. Highly recommend.

      This insurance is terrible. Rates go up annually, exorbitantly and they just classified reabsorbed tooth surgery on a cat "teeth cleaning" and are refusing to pay the small amount they actually cover ($1000 on a $2500 a year policy). Absolutely insane reading their reviews on social media now. I cannot believe they were recommended to me. CHOOSE DIFFERENT INSURANCE.

      It has been over a month since I filed a claim for my kitten who had a spay surgery go wrong. She was formerly healthy but had rare complications that wound up costing thousands of dollars in treatment. According to their site, they reimburse quickly. Well, a month later and there is no reimbursement. They continue to write that it is 'pending medical history review.' Mind you, there is no history for a kitten and her 'history' is all of 3 vaccine visits. I've sent them the medical history many times, but everything seems to go into outer space.

      When I write to complain, bots or maybe humans (?) respond that this will take 30 days. Guess what... It has been over a month. I'm fully not impressed with them. I suspect they have leaned down on labor and are trying to have AI do the work for them, but no idea what the truth is. Either way, I really wish I had picked a different company. My last insurance company was amazing and I should have paid extra and gone with them rather than fooling around with this poorly organized company. The workers are nice (or is it bots responding?). That's the only reason this is 2 stars instead of 1 stars.

      I submitted a wellness claim prior to 8/19. I received confirmation it was approved on 8/19. On 8/27 I received an email that I should not cash the check they sent me because they didn’t sign it and another check would be mailed out. Today (9/14) I called to check on it and had to speak with two people and had to authenticate twice after being placed on hold for long periods of time. I was told the check was mailed on 8/28 but it could take 10-14 business days to receive it. They are blaming the post office when I could have used the check I received weeks ago if they had signed it. At the very least they should have sent it out priority since it was their error.

      I've had a multiple pet policy with them for years. I moved 18 months ago and recently updated my address with the company. I moved to an area where the policy is less expensive. I asked for the possibility of getting a discount back to the move date, or at least to the start of the 2026 year of the policy. I was told that they have no mechanism to do that. Just my opinion, but I don't really believe that it can't be done. I think there should be a middle ground, or an offer for a discount off or next year's policy? Maybe I'm asking too much.

      Also, to get the records to get the policy activated was a hassle and took months to get it activated. Although they said they would get the records, they consistently told me they could not get them from the vet. I had to track down two vets to get records. Two calls and two days later, I was able to get them in paper and electronic sent out. I'm not sure what the issue was. The only other time I've worked with them was with reimbursements on vet bills which was smooth.

      Hello Linda,

      We sincerely regret any disappointment you've experienced with our company. As an insurer, our policies and state regulations don’t allow us to provide compensation or credits outside of what is filed and approved with underwriting. Regarding your address change, we go off of the first date of notification and are unable to retroactively apply the change to your account to provide a backdated credit.

      When requesting medical records, our standard procedure is always to reach out to the vet provider on your behalf; however, there are some vet providers that do not work with insurance companies directly and will only release medical records to the Pet Parent. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused, but we're glad to hear you had a smooth experience with the processing of your claims moving forward.

      Embrace is a great company IF you have healthy pets and don’t need them to reimburse medical. I would check very closely what they won’t cover - like prescription diet food for a diabetic dog to keep him well. They cover the insulin but one isn’t much good without the other. They don’t do what so many companies today offer which is Senior Discounts. Personally- it’s a shame to allow greed to blanket a company. The employees are lovely and helpful, but don’t make the rules. I’d suggest shopping around. New advertisements for pet insurance from well know. Companies are more prevalent. Can’t hurt to try to save some money- especially if your pet turns ill and medical expenses are so high. That’s why I thought I was buying pet insurance. Sure, they will gladly remove benefits to lower your rates, but then what do you need them for- catastrophic assistance only. It may be cheaper to pay off your cc then pay thousands for this pet insurance.

      Hello Judy,

      We want to assure you that we are committed to providing consistent coverage for pets throughout their life, with 92% of the claims received qualifying for coverage. We also strive to be as upfront as possible regarding what we can and cannot cover, both under our insurance policies and our Wellness Rewards plan. Embrace has a set list of exclusions as part of the Terms and Conditions for the insurance, and prescription food is not eligible for coverage under the accident and illness insurance policy. However, we understand preventative care is important too, which is why we have our optional Wellness Rewards plan which reimburses for routine and preventative care items (like prescription food) so that each pet parent can customize their policy to better fit their needs. We see you already spoke with a representative regarding your concerns, but if you have any additional questions, please feel free to reach out to our Customer Care Center and we're happy to assist you further. Our goal is always to support our policyholders and their pets, so we appreciate your feedback and will use it to continuously improve our services.

My dog needs diapers and drag bags, etc that it was supposed to be covered under the wellness plan. Guess what? When I tried to get paid for the things I mentioned, I was told that it was not covered under the wellness plan!!! I could not believe what they said to me!! Why would I sign up for something that does not cover my dog's day to day expenses now that he is paralyzed!!! Consider yourself warned!!!

      Hello Tad,

      We sincerely regret any frustration you experienced with the claims process and we're happy to provide clarification. The first eligible accident or illness related claim(s) submitted typically take about 30 business days to process as we work directly with you and your vet providers to gather any additional medical records needed and review your pet's complete medical history. We work as quickly as possible, but this timeline allows us to maintain accuracy and quality in processing your claim. Once the review is complete, your pending claims will move forward and you'll receive confirmation emails to let you know they're complete.

      Angela was very informative. She explained my options. She understood that I was military and a veterinary technician and was looking for a specific plan. She emailed me the plan that I requested, but yet understood. I was shopping around for pricing. She was extremely professional, pleasant, and you can tell she was smiling as she talk to me. I believe she enjoys her job and was not pushy which I also appreciated. I do think she deserves a raise or a gift whichever is appropriate. Every employee should be praised for their job. Well done which she did.

      Zero stars for Embrace insurance company. I Had to take my pup in for emergent care and I am being given challenges to be reimbursed. My claim is held up for an emergent care visit because they want 12-months of previous vet visits. My puppy is only 10 months. I gave them his records from his wellness visit when I first got him and vet recommended to be seen in a year for his annual. Therefore I have given what I have. Do NOT choose embrace, it is a hassle and the process is not empathetic to the decision to have to take your pet for emergent care in the first place. STILL WAITING. If a full medical history is required, do not take people’s money until you receive it. I went the same wellness records as before when I was as reimbursed for his medical wellness dollars.

      Hello MeShondra,

      We sincerely regret any disappointment you've experienced regarding your claims. When a policy is first purchased, we offer an option to complete a complimentary Medical History Review upfront, but if it's not requested, we do not review the medical records until the time of the first eligible accident or illness claim submission. During this process, our claims team works directly with you and your vet providers to gather any additional medical records needed and review your pet's complete medical history. We look for the detailed chart notes from any visits that occurred within the 12 months prior to starting the policy and through the initial waiting or exclusionary periods. Please note this does not mean we need a full 12 months of records if it's not available (for example, if the pet is a new addition or born more recently), it is just the parameter we set for any pet to make sure there was a sufficient pre-policy exam done and so that we receive the required records.

      Once the requested records are received, reviewed, and confirmed complete, your pending claims will move forward for processing. We want to assure you it's a much smoother process moving forward as future claims do not typically require this review, and our standard processing time for claims is 10-15 business days. If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to our Customer Care team and we're happy to provide further assistance.

      I found this company online and they had decent rates and their coverage seem to be very good. I have two dogs and I signed them both up with full coverage. The first claim I submitted was a urinary tract infection in my Aussie; she was one year at the time and we were on vacation, so we had to take her to an emergency vet clinic. They did a good job, and the claim was covered, after 60 days, I got my payment. Next year she had a new incident, and we took her to her vet. It was diagnosed as a new UTI infection. They gave her antibiotics, and it cleared up and we submitted the claim. It took 45 days to get the claim answered, and the claim was not covered due to a so-called chronic condition. I am changing to a different company. This provider is very slow to respond, and they find any reason they can to deny a claim.

We are unable to provide coverage for pre-existing conditions, defined as anything diagnosed or symptomatic prior to the start of the policy and through the initial waiting or exclusionary periods.
