So easy, my dog could use it

We have had Pets Best for almost 6 years and cannot imagine using another provider. Selecting coverage and filing claims is so easy. The team is super responsive, and claims are completed within a week. Fantastic service!

Save your money and go eosewhere

I never worked with a more incompetent company. Takes forever to process claims and sent my dogs medical records on the app multiple times. Yet they still said they needed records. Absolutely the dumbest customer service reps in the industry and shady company. Stay away

You need to change your wording in your in your benefit for better explanation

You need to change your wording in your available benefits. You say emergencies are covered but yet you considered an emergency room visit as an office visit that is misleading. And to me unscrupitable. When you say you cover emergency you should cover emergencies that's what people are paying for when they get that coverage. You're also very slow in approving claims.
