All companies say they care but it’s not until you use Lemonade that you really see the difference. Lemonade is fast and simple to use. Lemonade takes the stress out of submitting a claim at a time when all you really care about is your pet. Once submitted you get to work with a person, with an actual name and a sense of humour just when you need it! Lemonade cares about what your pet means to you and goes the extra distance to keep you connected. Great company. – Daniel B
Love Lemonade pet insurance. It’s extremely simple and easy. Quick claim process. quick reimbursement. The reps I have interacted with are super nice. Love that there’s optional annual wellness coverage for the exam and vaccines etc. Really helped with the price of having a new puppy and getting all those boosters. The coverage for illness/sickness is great. I like that you can customize it to an extent. And the price you can’t beat! Thank you Lemonade for being there for Stormie 🙂 – Cassandra
