I called the Furkin customer service line and had a wonderful experience with Catherine. She helped get me the answers I needed that I wasn't able to find on the website, and patiently walked me through steps to set up direct deposit and other requirements. That was the best customer experience I've had in a long time :)

What are people saying?
My experience with Furkin has been amazing. They are Furkin affordable!!! Their terms and conditions leave no grey areas and their additional benefits are so thoughtful. So far, we have had two claims and both were processed quickly and efficiently. Doesn’t hurt that their name is fun to say too! :-)
Furkin has been a huge relief when bringing my dog to emergency vet appointments. They are super fast with processing claims and have excellent customer service. Highly recommend!
The absolute BEST experience I could’ve hoped for. I had heard so many horror stories about pet insurance companies denying claims, but Furkin never questioned anything about our claim! Will 100% recommend Furkin to all my friends, family, and total strangers!!
Great service! Very easy process. So happy I signed up with this company.
