Want to know more about our travelers' pet insurance?
These FAQs dive deeper into how our coverage works, what the pet care upgrade includes, and how to choose the right option for you and your furry friend. Explore the answers below to get started.
Pet travel can be delightful, but it also comes with unique challenges. What if your pet’s health takes a sudden turn during the trip? Or what if your flight is delayed and your furry friend’s accommodation falls through?
International pet insurance offers a safety net with coverage for unexpected costs related to your pet’s well-being and boarding. It’s designed to keep your pet comfortable, healthy, and secure if something goes wrong while you’re away.
We’re here to help care for your cats and dogs whether they’re going on a pet vacation with you or staying at home in a boarding kennel while you explore the world.
You can get travelers’ pet insurance through our pet care upgrade, which is available on our Ultimate, Advantage, Essential, and Travel Med Go plans.
Our pet care upgrade can help in two ways:
- If your pet isn’t traveling with you: Should your trip be delayed for an eligible covered reason and you end up with extra pet boarding fees, we can offer up to $250 coverage for your necessary extra boarding costs at a licensed commercial kennel up to three days past your original return date.
- If your pet is traveling with you: Looking for medical travel insurance for cats and dogs? If your animal companion has an eligible sickness or injury, we can offer up to $2,500 coverage for emergency veterinarian expenses.
Firstly, we’re sorry to all the much-loved pet rabbits, horses, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, and turtles out there, but our pet care upgrade only offers coverage for cats and dogs. So, if you have a pet that isn’t a cat or dog, we can’t help.
Secondly, because our pet care upgrade offers coverage for two different types of expenses (medical and boarding), there are different eligibility requirements for each:
If your pet isn’t traveling with you
Our coverage for additional boarding fees only applies if you have a travel delay resulting from a natural disaster, you’re admitted to the hospital, or other eligible reasons (which you can find in your plan’s description of coverage), and you boarded your animal at a licensed commercial kennel while on your trip.
So, if you simply decide to extend your trip for fun and pay for extra days to board your dog or cat, we won’t provide coverage for those costs. Or, if you’re paying your friend to watch your animal at home, we can’t reimburse you for extra days.
If your pet is traveling with you
For pet veterinarian expenses to be eligible for reimbursement, your pet’s sickness or injury must be one that you didn’t anticipate and that first manifests itself or occurs during your pet-friendly vacation.
So, if you’re looking for pet travel insurance that covers pre-existing conditions, know that our pet care upgrade only applies to new and unexpected health conditions. For example, if your dog has a pre-existing seizure condition and needs veterinarian care while on a pet vacation because of a seizure, we won’t provide coverage for your pet’s medical costs.
Any pet veterinarian expenses you incur on your trip also need to be recommended by a licensed veterinarian as reasonable and necessary, including services and supplies. This means the treatment can’t wait until you’re back home because the unexpected and accidental injury or illness is impairing your animal’s normal functions. Our medical travel insurance for cats and dogs won’t apply if the veterinarian treating your pet is you, your traveling companion, or your family member (even if you’re a licensed veterinarian).
Yes, our pet care upgrade offers coverage for all types of dogs and cats for the eligible reasons listed in the description of coverage. Whether or not your pet is a service animal (or support animal) doesn’t change your eligibility for coverage or benefits under the upgrade. We’re here to offer care for both of you!
It’s simple to get a quote for our domestic and international pet insurance, just visit our homepage or click the orange “Get quote” button and enter your trip details.
Remember, you’ll need to choose our Ultimate, Advantage, Essential, or Travel Med Go plan, add our pet care upgrade to your policy, and pay the extra premium to be eligible for our pet travel insurance. It’s also important to know that you’re not eligible for our pet care upgrade if you live in New York or Virginia.
If you have any questions, feel free to call our award-winning customer service team at 1-800-228-9792, or click the chat icon on one of our website pages!
With the right protection, you can enjoy every moment of your pet travel adventures, knowing both you and your pet can have support through life’s surprises. Because whether you travel together on pet-friendly vacations or your furry friend waits for you at home, your pet deserves the same level of care as you.
Yes, you can. When you get a quote online, simply add the pet care upgrade to your plan. It provides umbrella coverage, so you don’t need to list each pet individually. (As long as your cat(s) or dog(s) meet the eligibility requirements, they’ll have coverage).
Pro tip: Not sure what the eligibility rules are? Check our “What doesn’t Travelex’s pet travel insurance cover?” FAQ for the full details.
You don’t have to juggle two insurance companies. Our pet care upgrade provides primary coverage, so if your pet needs emergency vet care on your trip or you’re delayed and owe extra boarding fees, you can file the claim directly with us.
Most traditional pet insurance plans won’t cover international vet bills or extended boarding costs. Our domestic and international pet insurance does. And even if your plan covers some of these expenses, you can still come straight to us without filing through your pet’s regular insurer first.
These items are excluded because they’re considered general travel or ownership costs, not unexpected losses. Our pet travel insurance is designed to cover sudden, unforeseen events (like emergency vet care or boarding costs caused by a travel delay) rather than routine pet expenses such as airline fees, travel crates, quarantine requirements, or property damage.
No, all dog and cat breeds are eligible. We don’t place breed restrictions on our pet care upgrade.
