Older dogs require medical care more frequently than younger ones and veterinary costs can quickly add up, which is why so many pet insurance providers offer affordable policies for older pups.

Finding a policy tailored specifically to your needs requires you to conduct extensive research and gather multiple quotes. Doing this will give you a more accurate picture of costs.

Fetch

Fetch is an award-winning app that rewards shoppers for uploading their shopping receipts. Thanks to a vast network of partner stores, Fetch users can earn points whenever they shop at any store - you could potentially earn points every time!

Fetch stands out from its competitors because it does not require your credit card information; vendors only print the last five digits on receipts, meaning Fetch cannot see your full card details when uploading receipts and does not sell your personal details to third-parties.

Fetch can be time consuming; to maximize rewards you should consider pairing it with another cash-back app to speed things along.

Fetch offers an affordable option for older dogs. Their comprehensive base plan covers dental, breed-specific conditions, holistic care and up to $1,000 worth of virtual vet visits each policy year via text messaging, emailing, calling or videoconferencing.

Pawp

Pawp is an ideal alternative to traditional pet insurance, offering a flat monthly plan of $19 that covers up to six pets without co-pays or deductibles.

This company also provides 24/7 access to veterinary advice that can save money on vet visits, with video calls and text chats with licensed veterinarians available round-the-clock.

Another benefit is having access to an emergency vet fund that covers emergency vet care for any of your cats or dogs at least once annually, available from any licensed veterinarian in the US.

Before accessing an emergency fund, however, several considerations should be made. First of all, speak with a Pawp vet to ascertain whether your pet's condition meets emergency criteria before accessing this fund.

Once approved, you have four hours to take your pet to an animal hospital or vet clinic - any longer and funds won't be released.

Embrace

Embrace is an excellent option for older dogs, offering accident-only plans which can save money. Get a free quote and determine how much coverage is needed within minutes!

Additionally, it offers a Healthy Pet Deductible program which credits your deductible with $50 every year that passes without filing a claim, potentially making it possible for it to reduce even further over time - potentially dropping to $0 after multiple years without claims!

They offer a special discount program that lets you take advantage of additional savings: 10% discount per pet enrolled, 5% military discount and an employee discount if your employer provides Embrace coverage.

Embrace has an outstanding customer satisfaction track record, as evidenced by their 4.5 out of 5-trustScore on TrustPilot and mixed reviews on BBB.

Pumpkin

There are a wide array of providers, but only a select few comprehensive plans designed specifically to cover senior dogs expensive. By protecting them now from medical costs in later life, senior dog insurance plans provide peace of mind to pet parents.

Before enrolling a senior dog insurance plan, there are a few considerations you should keep in mind before choosing one: his/her age, preexisting conditions and coverage options available from each pet insurance provider. We suggest researching at least three policies prior to making a final decision.

Senior dog premiums tend to be higher due to their increased risk of illness and injury; therefore selecting a policy tailored specifically for their needs and your budget could help save money over time.

Figo provides up to 100% reimbursement without annual payout limits, with no copay and unlimited coverage options. However, they place strict limits on hereditary conditions and don't include exam fee reimbursement or physical therapy benefits in their base policies.
