I've been with dotsure.co.za pet insurance since 2017 and I’m just always amazed at their fast, efficient, and extra helpful ways from queries to claims! Simply the best!
Corne Lombard
I had pet insurance for my 2 dogs for the last 8 years. I’ve used both their online platform, and call-in option, and the staff was always able to answer my questions and file a claim. In the cases where the claim was not valid, they told me the reason and I understood. Thanks for being a great company.
Jeanne Schutte
I have 6 dogs on my profile, and I’ve been a member for some time. The monthly contribution is very affordable, and I’ve had several claims with no hassle at all. One needs to download the correct form and the vet completes it with the relevant account information. I received payment within 24 hours on both claims. I can honestly advise anyone reading to join dotsure.co.za, if your pets are family members like mine.
Lucinda Lucas

Being a client of dotsure.co.za has been one of the most painless experiences I've ever had! They have such a quick turnaround time for applications, and their prices are insanely good. We have a rescue dog who is very healthy and doesn't need much medical care, but it is so comforting knowing that when he does have any issues, we don't need to worry about fighting with our insurance provider. Thank you, dotsure.co.za!
Sharon Joubert

The zero hassle, friendly staff, and SUPERB service is an inspiration to our nation! Go dotsure.co.za! You are leading the way!
Lieschken Alkemade
I have been with dotsure.co.za for many years now. I won't use any other insurer for our pets. They answer all calls and emails promptly. Never have I ever not received assistance immediately. They always follow up with a call to make sure all is well. This is service that you just don't receive anywhere, from anyone. Keep it up guys, you rock!

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to register to manage my policy online?
You don't need to register to access your Manage Portal. All you have to do is follow this link and follow the easy steps. Should you experience any issues, please call us on 0861 368 7873 or email u2us@dotsure.co.za.
Do I have to visit a specific vet practice?
No, we accept invoices from all South African vet practices, as long as they're qualified and registered with the relevant regulatory bodies.
Do you cover pre-existing or congenital conditions?
Congenital conditions are conditions your pet was born with (although symptoms or complications as a result of these may only present at a later stage). Pre-existing conditions are conditions that present symptoms before the start of the policy or before the end of the applicable waiting period. Unfortunately, pre-existing and congenital conditions are not covered.
