Pet Insurance
Today our pets mean more to us than ever before and naturally, we want to offer them the best levels of care. Fortunately, veterinary medicine has kept pace with the advances in human medicine – our pets have access to many of the same diagnostic, medical and surgical procedures as we do. However, with these lifesaving breakthroughs, comes an increase in the cost of veterinary care. Pet insurance helps bridge the divide between a pet owner’s willingness to care for their pet and their ability to afford the best care. For over twenty years, pet insurance has languished in the US. Less than 0.5% of all pets are currently insured.
Providing the right plan with the right coverage is important. For all puppies and Kittens, we recommend starting them off with a pet insurance Plan. At a young age with no pre-existing conditions, most plans offer coverage for all future medical conditions at low premium and higher per year coverage.
We encourage all responsible pet owners to look into these plans and have some sort of safety net for their pets health, in case of illness or emergency.
Our clients rate Trupanion (www.trupanion.com) very high in customer satisfaction. This company was awarded the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) seal of approval.

Good value and knowledgeable. No waiting most of the time. Always 2-3 doctors at a time and weekend care available which is appreciated. All of our three dogs been going to Walker Vet for some time now. Never any complaints.
Nick G.
After 2 trips to vet this week alone, both unexpected and urgent, I am 100% convinced there is no better vet around than Dr. Boden here at Walker Veterinary Hospital. He is the most caring and sweetest doctor I’ve ever taken my dogs to and I’ve tried at least 5 others in the area. This is our primary vet from now on!
