Super Fast Claim Service With No Red Tape

We have had to use the insurance a couple of times now and have always been surprised and pleased by the speed in which our claims have been paid. Our frenchie, The Fonz, had surgery on November 27, 2017. I opened the claim on November 28, 2017, and we had a check on December 6th! Awesome customer service too. I highly recommend them.

wish all insurance companies worked this well

After I spent almost 8000.00 out of pocket on my Dachshunds back surgery I learned my lesson. I got a new Cavachon puppy and my ex told me about Pets Best and spoke very highly of them. I signed Brody up. So he is 9 mo old and blew out his patella running too fast in the house. Surgery was 2800.00. I kind half expected them to deny my claim as a congenital condition. Nope. Surgery at MedVet was 2800. They direct deposited 2200 bucks within 10 days !Awesome, no muss no fuss. I'm gonna stay w these folks a long time. Count me impressed. I'm a happy customer.

I totally recommend Pets Best! They have been great about covering my puppies vaccines along with a sinus infection or an infection he got early on. Thanks to Pets Best for friendly fast payments and care you have for pets and their families, Merry Christmas to all of you.
