Fetch by The Dodo Pet Insurance: The Plain-Language Review

Fetch by The Dodo is the old Petplan, one of the longest-running pet insurers in North America, now riding with The Dodo. Its signature move is adoption support: enroll a newly adopted pet and they waive the waiting periods and cover the reasonable cost of treating a list of common shelter conditions for the life of the policy.

Pros

  • One of the oldest pet insurers in North America
  • Waiting periods waived for newly adopted pets through adoption support
  • Unlimited annual coverage options
  • Dental illness covered

The honest cons

  • No optional wellness or routine-care add-on
  • Premiums can run higher than the app-first insurers
  • Plan details vary more than the one-plan insurers, so read before picking

Good fit for

Anyone who just brought home a rescue, and owners who want a long-established insurer with deep coverage instead of an app startup.

Real bills from real dogs

We don’t sell insurance and we don’t take a word of your information. But we know what a surprise vet bill feels like. Max ate a chicken bone out of the trash: $4,800. Rocco swallowed a stone: $12,000 with the checkups. Velvet broke her front leg in her own backyard: $8,400. All three dogs lived to tell it, and we paid all three bills out of pocket.

See how it compares to the others
