DONT GET THIS PET INSURANCE!!!
I’ve submitted about 7 claims and got reimbursed for one so far… a routine visit and nothing else. They find “reasons” to say things are pre-existing. One example: If my dog has an ear infection, it’s not bc he has underlying “allergies”. It’s bc he has an ear infection like a kid would get. My dog is on meds that are supposedly covered but they won’t reimburse because it’s a “pre-existing” condition according to them. Then why list the meds as reimbursable? The claim process takes WEEKS! Slow and no communication. I regret ever signing up for this insurance.

Peace of mind
We got our puppy and got pets best insurance right away we have had to use it more than we would have liked to and the process of submitting claims and experience and reimbursement has been flawless and timely. The customer services have been top notch for us and I tell everyone who we use for insurance for Kona.
