My FCR dog lost 10# over a 6 wk period with no other symptoms except some hair loss. My vet was very thorough with lab work and exam. Pets Best, as always reimbursed me the bulk of the charges (over $300) promptly and efficiently. I LOVE Pets Best! No problems found so she's on double amt. of food and re-check in a month. We did switch foods and that seems to be helping.

Best Pet Insurance Company

I have been using this company for 3 years. I recently searched other companies to insure a new Puppy. I was unable to find one that provides the kind of customer care that I have received from Pets Best. My older dog has a sensitive stomach and gets ill frequently. The ease of filing claims and the helpful customer service is the best there is. Their benefits and cost match most of the others. I am so glad my Pets and I are part of the Pets Best Family!

Pets Best - Always Great

I've had my Boxer insured through Pets Best since 2010, after they were recommended to me by my vet. Pets Best has always been fair, prompt and courteous in all my dealings with them. They carefully explain all the options to insure a pet, and they have worked with me to save me money, while maintaining a high level of coverage for my dog. Buster was recently diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer, and without the coverage he has, treatment would have been financially crippling. Their process for submitting a claim couldn't be easier. I recommend them to anyone who asks.

Very efficient. Although I need to review how much alternative medicine I am able to claim so was surprised that it was covered. But as always super efficient and timely :)
