Why Do You Need Pet Insurance for Your Dog?
Pet insurance can help reimburse you for your dog's covered and approved vet bills, which may help you worry less about your finances and focus on what really matters — your dog's health.
The yearly cost of health-related expenses for dogs can range from $534 - $1,285.1
That means you might spend upward of $19,000 just on medical care over the course of a dog's 15-year life.
Or you could pay a premium starting at $15 a month for a dog insurance policy2 that can help reimburse you for costly medical expenses.
A MetLife Pet Insurance policy can potentially help you save, allowing you to make decisions about your dog's health without cost being the deciding factor.

We’re Feeling the Love
At MetLife Pet Insurance, we’re dog parents too. That’s why we’re dedicated to helping you keep your dogs happy and healthy. But don’t take our word for it. Here’s what other pet parents had to say about us.
MetLife Pet Insurance has our back in covering for our beloved puppy, Praise's, accidental injuries. Thank you for giving us the protection we're exactly looking for!
My dog had an idiopathic chylothorax, which is something no one can plan for, and I was so thankful to have my pet insurance through MetLife Pet! The claims process was easy and I was reimbursed quickly. When
I called to check on the claim, the people on the phone were kind and understanding! Thank you.
My recently adopted Australian Shepherd/lab mix had terrible vomiting, and required an ultrasound and ER visit. Looks like she came to me with a cat toy in her tummy. I had signed up with MetLife Pet Insurance through the rescue group. Boy, was I glad I did!. MetLife Pet was terrific. Easy to fill out the paperwork, just sent in the medical report and the bill. I feel good about being able to take care of my Piper without worrying about my bank account. Thank you, MetLife Pet.
