The claims process online is very easy. The response time is quick and the refund time is quick as well. I'm very satisfied with the service.

I Was Having Issues With Uploading

I was having issues with uploading two documents in one time. I had to submit the claim and come back and add to the claim to get the rest of the documents uploaded. It took about seven days before I got the results of the claim. Would have appreciated communication after three days.

Best Dog Insurance Experience

I never had pet insurance, but decided to look into after getting a puppy ( we had a lab previously, but never had insurance ) I did some research and loved the reviews for Pets Best and decided to use them for my dog insurance. My lab was a little crazy with eating things and getting ear infections etc.... So, I have used the insurance several times. Customer service is TOP NOTCH.. They really care about ME as a customer, but more so, my dog.... My dog was in ICU last year from possibly bad dog food that I used because my breeder's deliver was delayed for my normal food. I thought my dog was going to die. Pets Best customer service girl felt so bad and really cared. I can go and on and on about how wonderful they are.. But, I don't give recommendations very easily and if I can help one person with your decision . PETS BEST is the WAY TO GO........

This was a wellness claim for my dog's annual vaccinations. Pets best reimbursed me the maximums allowed per vaccine. This was a huge relief as this is one of our biggest annual expenses with our dog and it's great to know pets best has our back!
