PetCoverToday was created to help pet owners make informed, confident decisions about pet insurance. Choosing the right coverage for your dog or cat can be overwhelming, every provider has different pricing, exclusions, and waiting periods, and the stakes are real when your pet’s health is on the line.
Our goal is simple: break down pet insurance in plain language, backed by real data. We research veterinary costs, breed-specific health risks, and provider policies so you don’t have to dig through confusing fine print yourself.
What you’ll find here
- Breed-specific insurance guides covering the health risks and costs unique to your pet
- Condition-specific coverage breakdowns (hip dysplasia, cancer, dental care, and more)
- Honest comparisons of major pet insurance providers
- Practical advice for first-time pet owners and long-time pet parents alike
Our approach
We are an independent information resource. We are not a licensed insurance broker or agent, and we don’t sell policies directly. Our articles are designed to help you understand your options so you can choose confidently, you’ll always find links to providers’ official sites when you’re ready to get a quote.
Every article on this site is researched using current, publicly available data from veterinary studies, industry reports, and insurance providers themselves. We update our guides as new research and pricing data becomes available, and every source we cite is linked at the bottom of the article so you can verify it yourself.
Who’s behind PetCoverToday
PetCoverToday is run by Sarah Mitchell, who researches and writes every guide on this site. Sarah’s background is in research and data analysis, not veterinary medicine or insurance underwriting, and that’s by design, her job here is to dig through the studies, breed health registries, and provider data so you don’t have to, not to replace the advice of your vet or a licensed insurance agent.
Our commitment: every figure, statistic, and cost estimate on this site is pulled from a named, linked source, never invented or estimated without backing. If you ever spot something that looks outdated or incorrect, reach out through our Contact page and we’ll look into it.
