Welcome to Pet Shield! - Pet Shield Insurance

Welcome to Pet Shield! We’re your new and local Canadian pet insurance provider, specializing in dog and cat insurance. Pet Shield was developed around the idea that protecting our pets’ health is a decision that shouldn’t be based on finances alone – we believe you should always have the freedom to make decisions about your pet’s care. Our pets play a big role in our well being, and we want to ensure that you can do everything possible to protect your well being.

Veterinary care is necessary, but expensive. Having pet insurance is the best way to plan for unexpected veterinary costs, should your pet have an accident or illness. Through Pet Shield, we’re ensuring that Alberta pet owners have access to great insurance coverage and excellent service at a reasonable price.
