Excellent and timely service

Pets Best has been my insurance company for all my cats. There is always someone accessible by phone, email or fax and payments are always timely. If there is ever an error then it is rectified. My previous cat was 8 years old when I adopted him and he passed away at the age of 21 years young. During those years he was always insured with Pets Best. Two years ago I adopted two 3 years old sisters from a shelter and they have been insurance with Pets Best from day one. I recommend Pets Best highly as they are fair, honest and reliable.

Pets Best really is THE BEST

Pets Best, We cannot begin to thank you enough for helping us save our English Bulldog! He became very sick and needed an emergency surgery. As you can imagine, it was extremely expensive. However, we were able to turn to Pets Best and this helped so much financially. We were able to focus on helping our little guy recover, instead of stressing about our finances. Pets best was very plesant to work with and again, we cannot thank you enough. Sincerely, Kirby and Tom

Excellent Insurance Company

We've had Pet's Best Insurance for two of our Italian Greyhounds for almost 4 years and have always been very happy with them. Claims are processed very quickly and when I've need to call a representative with a question they have always been not only helpful, but very kind and pleasant to talk with.

Very happy with this provider

My dog was taken to the emergency clinic and racked up an impressive $3K bill due to all the tests, meds and hospitalization stay. We have the emergency insurance option and my claim was processed within 6 business days. I got back the full 80% I was owed in my policy and the money was in my account the next day. I am so relieved I had this insurance or else we'd be in a tough spot
