Submitting the claim was very easy

Submitting the claim was very easy. The turnaround and communication was very quick. I like the 24/7 help. The website is easy to maneuver. I have had a very good experience with PetsBest Insurance for my Pomeranian. I will continue using PetsBest.

Thankful to have this pet insurance

You never think and hope you don't need pet insurance for anything outrageous. Money should never be the reason to do or not to do something for your pet. But it helps to know that the reimbursement coming will cover a good portion of the higher bills. Our dog had the unfortunate experience of a life threatening incident and has since needed more help. With Pets Best, we have been able to give our pet the care and therapy needed. I will never own a pet without insurance again. I have recommended Pets Best to many people. They are efficient and fairly quick on reimbursing. Very happy with them!

Pets Best has been a life saver for my…

Pets Best has been a life saver for my dog that has just had awful luck with illness and injuries. I am not sure he would still be with me had I not had this insurance. They have paid 90% and I have had no issues getting paid. Payments always seem to make it to my account before the credit card bill is due.
