What makes pet insurance worth It
The cost of living is higher in New Jersey compared to other areas in the country, and the vet bills are no exception. A pet wellness visit at a New Jersey vet can average around $200. And, that does not include any extra costs, like blood work or x -rays. Utilizing pet insurance in New Jersey is a great way to offset these costs when your pet is faced with an unexpected accident or illness.
Here are some of the most common worries and claims from our New Jersey pet parents:
Tick-related vet trips
Black-legged ticks, lone star ticks, American dog ticks and brown ticks all call New Jersey home. Lucky you! Lyme disease is most often transmitted by black-legged ticks. Many of our pet parents in New Jersey take advantage of our add-on Wellness Rewards to help budget for and cover the costs of preventatives like flea and tick medications.
Canine influenza-related vet trips
New Jersey often experiences higher instances of canine influenza. Severely affected dogs usually need hospitalization with IV fluids, medications to help them breathe, and oxygen supplementation. If your veterinarian suspects that a bacterial infection has also occurred, your dog may be prescribed antibiotics as well. This contagious respiratory disease in dogs can be preventable with a vaccine.
Unexpected Pet Accidents
Unexpected accidents lurk just around the corner – from slipping on ice, ingesting something toxic, or an injury from running with the big dogs at the park. You certainly can’t plan for the unexpected, but you can always be prepared with pet insurance.

What’s not covered by cat & dog insurance in New Jersey?
While no pet insurance covers pre-existing conditions – Embrace included – we do distinguish between curable and incurable pre-existing conditions and cover curable conditions after your pet is symptom and treatment-free for 12 months when we consider pre-existing condition pet insurance.
We also do not cover cosmetic procedures (declawing, ear cropping, tail docking, etc.), breeding and whelping, DNA testing, or cloning.
For routine and preventative care, we offer a flexible Wellness Rewards plan, which is the purrfect complement to your insurance policy.
