Verdict
Healthy Pets are a specialist pet insurance company but they do not offer any lifetime pet insurance policies. You will have to pay a percentage of vet fees from when your pet is 5 years old which is younger than for many other companies (the average is about 8 years). There are also a few limitations of the policy that you need to be aware of.

Customer Feedback
The claims satisfaction survey conducted by our sister site – Pet Insurance Surveys – in October 2021 ranked Healthy Pets 15th out of the 16 pet insurance companies.
