What Makes Melbourne Furbulous for Pets?

Melbourne isn’t just a pawsome place for us folk, it’s also a haven for our four-legged pals!

You’ve got access to endless pet-friendly pubs, beaches, parks, stays, restaurants, and activities all across Melbourne.

If you fancy a little excursion, you and your pooch can run wild at the Clayton Reserve. If you want to doggy paddle along the shore, take your pup to Port Melbourne Dog Beach and catch some rad waves. For a bite to eat and a pup-cup, head over to Bellboy Cafe or South of Johnston.

If you want to treat yourself and your fur baby to a little staycation, book a night or two at The Langham Hotel.

In addition to all the tail-wagging things to do in Melbourne, you also have some of the best vets right on your doorstep, so you can trust your pet has access to excellent care anywhere in the City.

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s Covered with PetsOnMe Pet Insurance Melbourne?

You get to enjoy up to 80% coverage on a bunch of eligible vet bills, including prescribed medication, cruciate ligament, hereditary conditions, accidental injury treatment, tick paralysis, and even third-party liability. The coverage you’re entitled to depends on the type of plan you pick, so choose wisely!

The one thing that isn’t covered in any of our plans is pre-existing conditions. This means any treatment for health problems that your fur baby had before the commencement date of your policy won’t be claimable.

What Pet Insurance Plan Is Recommended for Melbourne Pets?

We recommend picking a pet plan that matches your furry friend’s health needs and your preferences.

If you’ve got a low-risk and generally healthy pet, you probably don’t need lots of cover, so our Accidental Plan is worth choosing. If you want balanced coverage in case any health problems pop up, our Classic Plan will cover you for all the essential stuff. For pet parents with high-maintenance pets that are likely to get sick, our Deluxe Plan is the ultimate safety net.

Whichever fur-tacular plan you go for at PetsOnMe, you can get two whole months of free coverage for fur babies aged under one year and the first month free for pets aged one year or more!

Do I Have to Pay for Damage My Dog Causes in Melbourne?

In Melbourne, local laws hold doggy parents liable for any damage their naughty pooch causes. Lucky for you, all of our pet health insurance plans include third-party liability cover, so you won’t need to empty your pockets on compensation.

Can I Choose Any Vet in Melbourne with PetsOnMe?

You can indeed! PetsOnMe knows how nerve-racking vet visits can be, which is why we let you pick the perfect vet that your pet is familiar with. As long as the vet you choose is within the Melbourne area, you’re all good.

How Soon Can I Get Pet Insurance Cover After Moving to Melbourne?

If you’re switching to our Accidental Plan, you don’t need to wait a second longer because you get instant coverage from the commencement date of your policy. However, our terms and conditions include a waiting period for our Classic and Deluxe Plans, ranging from 21 and 180 days.

If you’re insuring your pet with us, and held a previous policy for a year or more with no interruptions, we’ll ditch our waiting periods and get you covered ASAP.
