Why Us?

Affordable Insurance for Life

Pet Protect has no hidden exclusions – what you see is what you get. For example our Extra Care Plan total cover may only be $6000, but $6000 is exactly what you can claim. The only time we impose a limitation on cover is when your dog requires treatment for cruciate ligament problems.

In addition, Pet Protect doesn't include the cost of diagnosis with the cost of treatment. We treat these items separately, which means you could be able to claim more under one of our policies.

Security

Pet Protect Insurance is a underwritten by IAG New Zealand Limited (Insurance Australia Group). IAG owns well-known and respected insurance brands NZI and State. NZI was named Insurer of the Year at the General Insurance Industry Awards in 2006 and 2007.

Pet Protect benefits from IAG's AA- (Very Strong) "Standard and Poor" rating, offering further security and confidence to our policy holders.

Speedy Settlement

Pet Protect cannot pre-approve claims because of cost variations between clinics and regions, so we do require you to pay the full costs of veterinary care first. However at Pet Protect we provide a swift claims service, with payment direct credited into your bank account within 10 working days for approved claims.

Expertise

Led by Clinical Director Dr Keith Houston, the Pet Protect underwriting team are all trained veterinary nurses. This means that they can deal with most enquiries straight away and can offer professional advice on the health of your pet.
