Completely impressed with Pets Best

Having had other health plans with other dogs, I am completely impressed with Pets Best. I cannot believe how easy the process was...and not having to provide tons of explanations for the claims was a joy (to be a trusted customer). Usually, I have been asked for vet clarification on every treatment and diagnosis! Thank you, Pets Best.

Fast and hassle-free

I have had Pets Best for four dogs, and Pets Best has always made the pain of a sick dog a little less horrible. I chose Pets Best years ago with my first dog because they were one of the few who would insure older dogs. I have nothing but good things to say about Pets Best. They have been wonderful and caring, even sending condolences upon the death of my first two fur-babies.

Extremely long, difficult, and uncertain claim submission process.

Overall customer service was very slow at best and rude and unhelpful at worst. Every claim submission required multiple phone calls and none ever moved forward. The requirements for claims submissions are completely unclear in the first place, even something as simple as getting a veterinary letter stating that the dog should be on heart guard and frontline and submitting a claim for the purchase. Our dog's medical history review took over 4 months to get back, at which time you find out the excluded conditions and what you have been actually paying for during the past 4 months. While some excluded conditions were expected, others made no sense. e.g., our dog vomited once after being put on several medications post-surgery, which was mentioned in his medical records. This resulted in an exclusion for any future gastro-intestinal related problems, which any dog owner would know basically includes everything. We were told to submit records showing that gastroenteritis was resolved and that this exclusion MIGHT be removed. The dog was further excluded for any atopic or allergic dermatitis due to a skin rash of unknown origin that was actually determined not to be an atopic dermatitis by our vet but did result in a bacterial skin infection. This would basically exclude our dog from being treated for any future skin problems given the difficulty of pinning down the origins of rashes. I don't believe we ever once had a claim or any paperwork successfully processed and resolved, which inspires no confidence in any potential future coverage or reimbursement. Since we didn't feel like paying premiums for another 4+ months just for the privilege of finding out what is covered and what isn't, we canceled the plan and absorbed the sunken cost of having ever signed up for Nationwide Pet Insurance in the first place.

Partners in our pets' care from youth through their golden years

When our pets were younger, having insurance through Nationwide gave me peace of mind because I knew that if they had a medical emergency, I'd be able to take them to the vet and get them the care that they needed. Our pets are now all frosted faces, and I'm especially thankful that we have kept them insured with you because you have come through for us when our cocker spaniel, Mabu, got cancer (he's OK now!!!), and you came through for us when our little mixed breed, Pupusa, developed digestive issues (we're getting those treated!).

Best Company by far!

This is hands down the best company to have for pet insurance! They make everything so easy and simple! It really takes the worry away from unfortunate situations that arise with pets. Always quick and I feel as though they truly care and strive to take care of their customers!

Best insurance I have ever used

When I purchased this insurance I never thought I would need it. Turned out I needed it for my Newfoundland puppy. The people have been great and the refund has been excellent. These is no long waiting for it.

Great Insurance with flaws

You, by far have the best insurance going, but you have some serious flaws that when VPI had it were not an issue. I am not happy with you, or way you can "try" to upgrade to a better plan when it becomes available. My dogs are caught in a catch 22 with this issue and it upsets me. Unlike his human parent being able to upgrade their insurance at renewal time, I am stuck with what I got to like it or not.

Very quick at determining claims

As always, my dog's claim was quickly approved. Trupanion was the best coverage I could find for both my dog's and cats. I will never be without this coverage. The worry of not having enough money to treat my babies is no longer there.
