Pets Best is one of our best investments ever

We submitted a very expensive claim for our old dog... medicine he needed because our young puppy loves to play with him, and the blood test our Vet insisted upon because he is an OLD DOG.The claim of $338.39 was covered, and Pets Best paid us $302.86. AMAZING. They are quick to process claims (and I use snail mail) and they have only not paid when I have not met the deductible. I wish Pets Best would be our personal insurance: they certainly pay better. We did select a higher monthly payment with a larger return on the claim, but it is totally worth it. I would recommend this insurance to anyone and everyone. Thank you so much.

Grateful for Pets Best!

After not having insurance for my last 2 dogs (and just now paying off $10,000 in bills from their last few months, 2 years ago), I decided to get insurance for my new pups. Unfortunately, 1 week before I was going to sign up, one pup broke her elbow to the tune of $3k. That was it (the last straw), we signed up for insurance (thinking that now we had insurance, we would not need it :)). I had to make a claim last week. The claim was paid in less than 1 week and it was so simple to submit the claim. Thank you for your help Pets Best!

Excellent insurance!

Pets Best has been a life saver for our now almost 15-year-old cat, Henri. He has had two issues over the past two years and Pets Best covered nearly 90% (our coverage amount) of all expenses both times within 1 week of submitting the claims and without contacting us for additional questions. I highly recommend Pets Best for the value and peace of mind that this kind of coverage brings.
