SuperValu Pet Insurance offers pet owners a choice of three vetinary fee cover levels for all specifically identifiable illness and injuries. You can opt for €2,000, €4,000 or €6.000. Our €6,000 option provides the highest level of Vet cover in Ireland. The level of Vet fee cover you choose will affect your premium. Subject to the renewal of the policy and premiums paid on time, each illness or injury will be covered for 12 months, from the date of injury or from the first clinical signs of the illness. Premiums must be paid on time. To choose the right level of Vet fee cover, consider your pet's personality and how prone to accident they are, along with their age and general health. 

SuperValu Pet Insurance will pay the cost up to the maximum limit of €250 for boarding of your pet at a licensed premise if you, or anyone normally living with you, needs to go into hospital for emergency medical treatment for a period exceeding four consecutive days.

Firstly we hope this will never happen to you but if it does, we will reimburse you the purchase price of your dog or cat up to a maximum of €500. If you do not have a receipt for purchase of your pet, we will be happy to pay you the market value for the pet or the €500 limit, whichever is lowest.

SuperValu Pet Insurance really hope that this will never be an issue for you. If it happens, we're here to help and we will offer you €1,000 towards any relevant advertising costs that you incur in finding your pet. This would include for example, poster print costs, local advertising advert placement fee etc. We'll also give you €250 to offer as a reward for finding your pet. Please keep all of your cost receipts and call us in advance of paying for any advertising to ensure it is covered.

Third party liability refers to the damage you are liable to pay in the event of your dog causing damage to a third party. Please note cats are excluded from this cover. SuperValu Pet Insurance provides cover up to €250,000 for dogs. 

SuperValu Pet Insurance will insure your dog or cat from the age of eight weeks. If you renew your cover each year without a break, there is no upper age limit and we will continue to offer cover for your pet.

Veterinary claims will be subject to a €125 fixed excess which is payable per condition per policy year. This means you pay the first €125 of any vet costs within the year and for each condition.

If your pet is aged 5 years or above on the start date of the policy year, there will also be a 15% percentage excess of the remaining amount claimed after the fixed excess has been deducted.

Example.

1. Pre Existing Conditions: Claims associated with a pre-existing condition that is diagnosed are fully excluded from cover.
2. Waiting Periods: also apply before you can make a claim:

Accident: You will need to wait a minimum of 14 days before you can make a claim arising from an accident.

Illness: Your pet insurance must be in place at least 48 hours before illness cover is available.
