Dogs and cats in Minnesota are cherished family members, enjoying a state full of pet-friendly establishments and outdoor adventures. With rising vet care costs in Minnesota, pet insurance helps families manage expenses while keeping their pets healthy and protected.
Beyond the usual accidents and illnesses, pets may face risks like: heatstroke in summer and hypothermia in winter, mosquito/tick-borne illnesses such as heartworm and intestinal worms.
There are also environmental factors that can affect Minnesota pets: brutal Minnesota winters (frostbite, hypothermia, paw damage) summer heat waves (risk of heat stroke), leptospirosis in wet areas.
Minnesotans want the best for their pets, whether they’re in the Twin Cities, Red River Valley, Iron Range, or anywhere else in the state.

Pet parents appreciate the straightforward plan with no costly add-ons, the compassionate customer care team of vet techs and pet parents, and the freedom to visit any licensed veterinarian.
