You people do not know what you are…

You people do not know what you are doing. I have had a claim going for ever and have sent you all information and more. You keep denying me because my vet sent wrong papers to you from one of my other pets and she and i have written you about it but yet you still denied it and I have to reopen it again and it takes you 60 days to review every time .i will never use you again and am going to council my puppies coverage as soon as i find a other co. Would never recomend you and I have reported you to ins. Board

Very Satisfied

After making our first claim with Pets Best, I am happy to say we are very satisfied! The process is simple and easy to use. We uploaded the bill we received from our vet, gave a short explanation as to what happened, and received the exact coverage we expected to get. Our puppy wasn't feeling well and ended up needing medication, and Pets Best covered the exam, the testing, and the medication. We look forward to staying with them!

Took forever for my refund

I filed two claims almost 3 months ago, and I have probably received 10 emails, some saying my claim was denied, and some saying they had yet to receive my records. Then, I received an email saying my claim was denied, and the next day, there was an email saying my refund was on the way. Took forever, and was very frustrating. Not a smooth process at all.

There for us

With the scare of a lifetime seeing Bella chewing on a bag that contained my sons medication. First thing was how did she get it, and what was it. Called our vet and told them of situation which they had us call poison control. They instructed us to take her to vet. The vet did everything in their power to make sure Bella would be ok and she is fine now. It was very pricey for them to keep her and with overnight stay, but with pets best ins we will still be able to have Christmas presents. Best of all with healthy Bella to share with us. Thank you Pets Best for being there when we needed you.
