What is the Best Dog Insurance? Your Local Advisor in Alicante Answers
When you search for "best dog insurance," you're flooded with national comparison sites listing prices. But is the best insurance just the cheapest one? Or is it the one that offers coverage that actually works and a service that responds when you need it?
From our Sanitas agency in Alicante, we believe the answer is clear: the best insurance combines comprehensive health coverage with close, personalized advice.
We are a local agency, not an impersonal corporate headquarters. We know Alicante and understand the importance of having a trusted manager who can help you with paperwork and answer your questions face-to-face.
Coverage Matters: What type of insurance do you need?
The first step is understanding what you're looking for. The most common confusion in Alicante, especially with the new Animal Welfare Law, is the difference between Civil Liability insurance and Health insurance.
- Civil Liability (RC) Insurance: This is mandatory. It covers damages your dog might cause to third parties (other people, other animals, or property).
- Health Insurance (Veterinary Assistance): This is optional and the most important for their well-being. It covers veterinary costs due to accidents or illness.
At Sanitas Alicante, we advise you on both, ensuring you comply with the law while protecting what matters most: your pet's health.
The Key Advantage: Free Choice of Vet in Alicante
This is where our product stands out. Many insurance policies force you to use a "network" of approved vets. But what if your dog has been going to the same clinic in San Juan, Campello, or downtown Alicante for 10 years?
Sanitas Pet Health insurance operates on a reimbursement system. This means:
- You go to your trusted veterinarian. No questions asked.
- You pay the bill for the consultation, test, or surgery.
- You send it to us.
- We reimburse you 80% of the covered expenses.
You don't have to switch professionals. You have the freedom to choose the best care for them, wherever you are.
Service Makes the Difference: Your Sanitas Agency in Alicante
This is our greatest competitive advantage and the reason our clients in Alicante trust us.
When you buy from an online comparator, who manages your reimbursements? An app? An 800-number?
When you partner with Sanitas Alicante:
- You Have a Personal Advisor: We help you understand what's covered and what's not.
- Easy Reimbursement Management: Not comfortable with the app? Come to our office in Alicante, and we'll help you process the reimbursement on the spot.
- Problem Solving: If there's an issue, we stand up for you. We are your direct contact with the company.
The "best" insurance is one that doesn't leave you alone after you sign.
Frequently Asked Questions about Dog Insurance
How much does health insurance for a dog cost?

Does Sanitas cover the mandatory Civil Liability?
Yes. We offer you the complete solution. We manage your health reimbursement policy and, at the same time, the mandatory Civil Liability policy so you comply with the law with a single manager.
