I was VERY skeptical about getting pet…

I was VERY skeptical about getting pet insurance but have 3 rescue cats and just needed the security to know if something happened, they would be ok. I got them the wellness add on and took all three of them to vet for the first time. I am getting back more than $500 of a close to $900 bill for all three of them. I am SO SO GRATEFUL and really can't believe it actually worked. I also need to get some dental surgery for my little girl and realized it just at this vet visit. I believe that they will cover some of this as well. Honestly, super impressed. The claim was easy to submit. They responded within days and said the reimbursement is on the way to direct payment to my bank account. One very happy cat mama.

Very impressed

"My Persian got sick and I had to rush him to vet, having health insurance on him wasn't even on my mind, but once we got home and settled in I remembered that he had ins so I open my app and it was so easy to file a claim, all I had to do was upload my invoice and receipt. To my surprise I was notified immediately that they received my claim and was processing it. The next day I received a noticed that the claim had been processed and attached the explanation of benefit showing a break down of how it was processed. I was so impressed of the timely manner in which all this went down. In less than a week I received a check in the mail. I couldn't ask for better service. I would and have highly recommend Pets Best to anyone that has fur babies. Thank you for such a nice experience in such a difficult time. "
