Health Insurance for Dogs of All Ages
Whether you’ve just picked up your puppy from the breeder or rescued an older dog, Embrace Pet Insurance has you covered.

Insurance for Puppies
Our accident and illness insurance covers puppies as young as six weeks old to ensure their shenanigans won’t break the bank.

Insurance for Adult Dogs
Adult dogs are older and wiser, but they can still find trouble. Insuring them in adulthood ensures they’re covered as they age.

Insurance for Senior Dogs
Dogs can be enrolled in our accident & illness plan up to their 15th birthday. After 15, they’re eligible for an accident-only plan at signup.
How Your Dog Insurance Plan is Built
Some factors that determine pet insurance plan cost can’t be changed. But Embrace lets you customize other elements to build the best dog health insurance policy that fits every budget.
Breed
Certain dog breeds are prone to different genetic conditions and the premium reflects that.
Age
Aging pets are at higher risk and cost more to insure since they are more susceptible to injuries and illnesses.
Location
Veterinary rates change based on where you live. We take location into account to give you the best deal possible, as this will affect what you pay for your plan.
Annual Deductible
You Choose
We offer a few different deductible options. Choosing a higher deductible plan allows you to pay less for your cat’s insurance.
Reimbursement
You Choose
When your cat goes to the vet, we reimburse a percentage of what you paid for care. If you choose an insurance plan with a lower reimbursement percentage, your insurance payment will be smaller.
Annual Maximum
You Choose
Big dogs mean bigger vet bills, so we recommend picking this based on your dog’s needs and size.
