ABSOLUTE SCAM! STAY AS FAR AWAY AS POSSIBLE!

ABSOLUTE SCAM! STAY AS FAR AWAY AS POSSIBLE! Found out my Yorkie had Kidney Failure and the only piece of positive news was that I purchased pet insurance about a half a year earlier. After paying out of pocket for all treatments to try and save her life I find out all claims are denied because I took her to the vet a few months before purchasing the policy when she hurt her ankle!! THAT IS NOT A PRE-EXISTING CONDITION!! What's even a bigger SCAM is why did they let me sign up and pay monthly premiums while knowing that they would DENY all future claims?? Furthermore, they kept trying to charge me premiums after finding out my dog had a TERMINAL DISEASE! UNETHICAL LYING CROOKS! I found out today that my dog now has stage 4 kidney failure and needs to go to the ER and be hospitalized at a rate of $1,800 for 24 hours.. if only I was smart and had purchased pet insurance ahead of time *sarcasm*

Best Investment For Molly B!

Molly B is my pug who recently had a surgery because she ate a stick in our yard. I have had insurance a few years back for Miss B of which covered nothing except for 20 dollars here and there. I was so pleasantly surprised when the insurance covered most of MOlly B's foreign object surgurey. The company is super prompt, easy to submit claims and user friendly. I highly recommend this insurance and will be keeping it.

Good insurance with quick turnaround.

This visit was just an annual check up. I am impressed with the coverage as well as the quick reimbursement turnaround.

Insurance that works

Best insurance ever! Well worth the premium. Lots of people tried to talk me out of pet insurance. Either they didn't love their pet as much as I love mine or they never dealt with one that was at a veterinarian a lot. So glad I have Pet's Best Insurance. It really is the best!
