Completely satisfied with the claim process.

I was completely satisfied with the whole claim process. Communication was excellent; all I had to do was open an email! We made the right decision in choosing Pet's Best Insurance for our sweet, little pup! Thank you, Pet's Best!

They do a great job!

I came home from work and my dog somehow cut a huge gash in his front leg about 6 inches long. Took him to the ER vet for surgery on a Monday night. Pets Best reimbursement my claim and money was back in my account by Friday with no questions asked. They do a great job!

Never had any problems with claims.

Every time I send my claims for my 2 pets, I've never had any problem with my claims whatsoever. Sending a claim is so easy. Pets Best instantly send a confirmation of receipt. Claim is paid in a week, most of the time. I have been referring Pets Best to my friends and family. It's so nice to have this insurance for our little pets. Thank you, Pets Best!

I am so glad I got Pets Best Insurance! I wasn't even sure getting pet insurance was a good idea when we got our puppy. I am now a believer. I have had all of my claims reviewed and paid promptly and it is so comforting to know we can get our dog the care she needs.
