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
Why should I consider pet insurance for my dog?
It’s common for dogs to require veterinary attention at some point in their lives, and the severity and cost of such care can be unpredictable. Our dog insurance is designed to provide extensive coverage for unexpected injuries and illnesses your dog may face. Knose offers extensive plans catering to dogs living with you in Australia. We prioritise your pet’s well-being and don’t impose sub-limits, ensuring they have access to veterinary treatment whenever they need it most.
Your dog must reside with you in Australia. Unfortunately, some dog breeds that are classified as dangerous or banned aren’t eligible. Also, dogs used for commercial or sporting activities such as breeding, working, fighting, racing, personal protection, gun sports, law enforcement, or guarding, are excluded. However, there are exceptions, and we do provide cover for pets engaged in specific activities like show dogs, search and rescue dogs, guide dogs, assistance dogs, or customs sniffer dogs.
Our dog insurance covers accidents, injuries, illnesses, and even essential euthanasia. You can also add optional extras like dental illness, behavioural conditions, and specialised therapies to suit your dog’s unique needs.
We believe in keeping things simple and flexible. With Knose, you won’t encounter any sub-limits, so you can claim for eligible vet bills up to the annual limit. You can choose from various Annual Limits of $7,500, $12,500, or $25,000, and Benefit Percentages of 70%, 80%, or 90% to suit your unique needs.
We welcome dogs as young as six (6) weeks and up to eight (8) years and 364 days old. For dogs younger than three years, you can also add optional extras. And once your dog is covered, there are no age limits for renewals.
No, we don’t cover desexing, grooming, or training services for dogs as these are considered routine and elective care. Our pet insurance for dogs is designed to step in when unexpected accidents or illnesses occur, giving you peace of mind when it matters most.
No, routine and preventative care like vaccinations, check-ups, and grooming aren’t covered. We focus on helping with the unexpected, so our insurance provides support when your pet needs medical care due to an illness or injury.
For routine care, you may opt to subscribe to our Knose Pet Care Plans ↗.
