10/10 personalised service!
In January, we brought a puppy (Bella) into our lives – she is beautiful! Recently she had a few gastro issues and subsequent vet visits. Knose Pet Insurance has been awesome. They acknowledged the claims immediately, and then followed up with personal emails advising us of the progress of our claims. We even received a message asking after Bella and a follow up to say how pleased they were that Bella is now doing well. Top class personalized service and a thorough explanation of the claim refunds. 10/10 guys!

Frequently Asked Questions
What does Knose Pet Insurance cover?
We’ve got your back for accidents, injuries, illnesses, and even essential euthanasia. You can also add optional extras like dental illness, behavioural conditions, and specialised therapies to suit your pet’s unique needs.
Pet insurance helps cover unexpected vet bills, so you can focus on giving your pet the care they need. With Knose, you can pay a monthly premium, and if your pet needs vet care due to an illness or accident, we reimburse a portion of the costs. It’s a straightforward way to manage unexpected expenses and get peace of mind.
Learn more about pet insurance.
The best pet insurance is the one that meets your pet’s unique needs. Look at factors like the annual limit, benefit percentage, optional extras (like dental or behavioural cover), and any exclusions. Make sure to compare pet insurance plans wisely. At Knose, we offer customisable options to give you cover that suits you and your pet.
Yes, we can! Dental illness cover is available as an optional extra. It covers treatment for dental diseases affecting your pet’s teeth and gums but doesn’t include routine cleanings unless needed to treat a covered dental illness.
Yes, but only if you choose the optional extra for behavioural conditions during your application. This covers treatment costs for things like anxiety, excessive licking, and other behavioural disorders, helping your pet get the support they need.
Making a claim is a breeze. Log in to your Knose account and submit your claim online with a copy of the vet invoice. Your vet can also email the invoice to claims@knose.com.au. We might need a bit more info, like your pet’s medical history, to process your claim, and in that case, we can reach out to your vet directly.
Most claims are processed within five (5) business days once we have all the necessary information and documents. We like to keep things moving quickly so you can focus on your pet.
Insurer looks at several factors, including your pet’s species, breed, age, location, and our claims experience. As your pet ages or as vet costs rise, your premium may change.
