Consistent, reliable, and always with integrity. This is a great company.

We've had a policy with Pets Best ever since our dog was a brand-new pup, and have had to file a surprising number of claims over the years. Everything from ordinary illness to some fairly major surgery. Pets Best has always handled the claims quickly, easily, and with total integrity - they've always paid exactly as promised, no delays, no hassles. On-line claim filing is a breeze. Not much more I could possibly ask for from a pets insurance company. Thanks!

Awesome & easy

Keeping my pets healthy is very important to me. Pets Best helps tremendously with veterinary costs. It’s easily the best money I’ve spent for my “kids”. I highly recommend Pets Best for their app & the ease in which claims are processed.
