Lemonade Pet Insurance Reviews

Lemonade pet insurance is extremely expensive when you consider you are dealing with an AI agent 90% of the time. My dog was recently diagnosed with Cushings disease after several years of testing for Cushings disease and having normal test results however Lemonade is still considering the Cushings a “pre-existing condition” in spite of him having years worth of blood tests showing normal results while covered by their policy. Their reasoning? His ALP liver levels have been rising over the last 5-6 years (which happens often in older dogs with no disease or illness, according to my vet). So in reality, they’ve denied my dogs new illness because they’ve decided he must have had it before (in spite of several tests proving otherwise during his coverage period). Do yourself a favor and get a pet insurance company that actually pays humans to review claims and doesn’t just run things through AI.

New customer. Submitted 3 claims. Still no approval, days/weeks. Very disappointing. Will contact insurance commissioner.

Lemonade finds any reason NOT to cover a claim. My dog had ACL surgery on her right leg in August, we then got pet insurance because we didn't want anything like that to happen again. In March she tore her left ACL so now they won't cover it because they consider it a pre existing illness, lol. That's like telling me because you have something wrong with your right arm then your left arm is going to go out too. 🤣🤣 What a SCAM!! DO not get pet insurance from them, save your money.

My experience with their claims department was terrible service, they requested records never ordered them I had to. I wrote to them three times. No response other than to tell me they received my email and they are reviewing my dogs claim. As of this writing I still have not heard a word on my claim, been about 2 plus weeks. If you buy pet insurance buy it for major illness or accident only, not everyday services. That is a rip off. They will add pre-existing conditions whenever they can and they limit your benefits payable as much as they can.

If you took your pet to the vet for any reason before getting insurance don’t bother. They will deny your claim if you take them back years later with symptoms even slightly similar and call it pre existing on set even if they never had a diagnoses. Because I took my cat in for accidents outside the litter box they seemingly won’t cover any urinary issues in the end. They’ll use any vague prior symptoms to deny your claim.

I signed up for the most expensive plan to ensure my pet is covered $1600 a year plan. Chookie is a 7-month-old kitten. Once I submitted the first claim (blood test, check up) Lemonade dragged me back and forth, continuously asking for documents which were all the same but they wanted them in different versions. And of course said to us through email that we are not eligible for coverage (refund)! Lemonade is a fraud. Do not buy this insurance! I simply will not claim anything anymore since it simply isn't worth the headache.

Reading the many negative reviews will verify my experience. Notices for claims that are denied are received immediately. Claims that are being reviewed take much longer. My opinion is that Lemonade is scanning for any way to pay as little as possible. If not at all.

The only way to file a claim is with their completely AI and bot-driven app. There is no other secure method offered to submit a claim. There is also no human to contact, just more bots. The app forces you to record your voice and/or video. Lemonade offers no security to ensure your voice or face is used without your permission; this is how identities are stolen. Due to these security concerns, and no other options available, I cancelled the claim. Complete waste of your time and money.

Coverage policy states items covered but they have denied every claim stating it is not covered. Takes a long time to hear from anyone. Get multiple people working on a claim. One says they need stuff, the other says they have it.

Stay away from this company. They find every reason not to pay claims. I had a dog go in for dental cleaning and they found 4 teeth that had to be removed. I had dental insurance and they would not cover the cost. They said it was a preexisting condition since my dog needed to have his teeth cleaned.

I have had Lemonade for two years now. I have been very impressed with the response from customer service and the ease of submitting a claim. I love how customizable the plans are and can fit any price point.

I have used Lemonade 3 times. My puppy is only 8 months. My 3rd vet visit was a sick visit, very simple, no blood tests, x-rays. Just an injection. I laid out quite a bit of money. Lemonade said they needed some more information from the vet and as of today, the 4th business day they still have failed to contact my vets office or reimburse me. I asked to speak to a manager and escalate this, however there is nobody to speak with. It will take another 24-48 hours to hear from someone. It’s been very frustrating.

The approval process was incredibly fast, which really impressed me. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and the entire experience felt simple, efficient, and stress-free. I’m genuinely satisfied with how easy it was.

Could not have been easier to submit claims for my two pups after their regular checkups. The drop-down menus were spot on and lined up (near) exact to the invoice for services rendered -- making the claim submission process a less than 3-minute endeavor. Oh, also -- the turnaround time on processing and paying the claim pursuant to the policy was lightning fast. Thrilled, I decided to get my pups insured WITH Lemonade. A+++

All three times I've submitted a claim after my cat's preventative care visits, they've been approved within seconds and the money is deposited into my account within a few days. All they need is the itemized receipt +/- proof of payment. I haven't had any major health issues or emergency visits, but I'm hoping that it'll be that seamless if my cat ever needs it.

I just made my first claim after getting insurance for my fur baby a few months ago. It was super easy to follow the form and I only ended up having to pay around $40 out of pocket for my vet visit after my reimbursement!

I was very happy we had Lemonade pet insurance for our dog when she came down with pneumonia and had to have so much work done. I was so relieved when they sent us our reimbursement within 2 days. It makes such a difference knowing you can get the care you need when confronted with a big bill like this.

I am giving Lemonade a one star because of how they abuse their pricing renewals. Second year, my costs went up over 20%. I just received the renewal for 2026 and it went up 43%!! They provided a boiler plate response about inflation, etc. The fact is, they are abusing the trust of their customers. I thought Lemonade was a better option but turns out they only care about their pockets. Do your research and find a company that won't take advantage of pet owner's love for their fur babies.

Very happy with the company benefit options and customer service. I picked a policy that had option for physical therapy, wellness and acupuncture. Filing a claim through the app is a piece of cake and response time is fast. Customer service was friendly and helpful

I have Pet Insurance with Lemonade and I never been so happy with it. What a great company, easy to open claims and they are very efficient. Chat works perfectly fine. I 100% recommend this insurance. Any issues that my dog had, Lemonade insurance was there to help me.

My dog Greeley recently broke her toe after sliding down a hill like a toddler on a Slip ’N Slide who did not sign up for this, and Lemonade made the whole situation so much easier. Filing the claim felt like chatting with a helpful friend. The process was simple, clear, and genuinely easy to use. The best part was how fast they paid. The reimbursement arrived before Greeley even finished demanding sympathy snacks. Lemonade turned a stressful moment into something completely manageable, and I’m genuinely impressed. Highly recommend. 🐾💛

I have had Lemonade Pet Insurance since 2021, when I rescued my current dog. I have not had to file any claims, until a few weeks ago when my dog developed a bad sore on his tail, due to an insect bite which developed into an infection. I filed the claim for all the ER and follow up visits and medications. The entire process was very easy and smooth, the system asked question and I answered them. I emailed copies of the receipts . The review was very fast and I was notified that the claims were approved and reimbursement was on it's way. It was deposited into my bank account within days.

They have been amazing. It has always been super easy and convenient to file claims and I always get very quick response times. This is such an amazing pet insurance company and I highly recommend this to anyone!!

The reimbursement process with Lemonade for our cats’ routine visits have always been super easy, and we get paid quickly. I’m happy to know we’ll have the backup should something unforeseen happen! The amount of coverage for the price is just right.

VERY HAPPY with team Lemonade. I just filed my very first claim for my pet. Took 5 minutes and was paid instantly. When my house and car insurance comes due, I will be looking at Lemonade. I am very satisfied with this insurance.,

So glad I switched from Trupanion to Lemonade. Just took my dog to the vet for a routine exam and actually got paid same day for preventative services, heart worm meds and bloodwork. So easy to file the claim.

This insurance will cover accidents like injuries from cars, fights, or broken legs. However, they often deny claims for illnesses like colds or flu, deeming them pre-existing conditions. Additionally, they may initially cover conditions only to later terminate coverage halfway through and classify them as pre-existing.

Quick and efficient!!!! Best pet insurance!!!! Made a claim one day and money in my account the next day. I have had other pet insurance and they were not as efficient and after a year doubled my premium. VERY happy with Lemonade 💜

Excellent customer service and quick response to our claim. Would definitely recommend to all pet pawrents to keep our furry babies safe and healthy. If you’re stuck between a few different providers choose Lemonade, or dump what you have now and don’t walk run to the Lemonade website! You won’t regret it!

DO NOT get your dog or cat Lemonade Pet Insurance. It is cheap for a reason and you truly get what you pay for. I have been with Lemonade since 2019 and have had to fight them repeatedly for payouts over the years. What happened this week with one of my cats was the last straw. I filed a formal complaint with the California Department of Insurance and submitted all of my documentation for review. Lemonade Pet Insurance has started another medical history review for this cat even though they already completed one five months ago and already have his full records.
