I recommend PetsBest Insurance

I learned of PetsBest insurance several years ago thru my employer. I could not find a company to insure my 11 year old dog . PetsBest had no age limit. In the 3 years I had this insurance I only had about 4 claims - the last one being for the problem that led to the euthanization of my dog. PetsBest not only covered over 80% of a sizable claim -they refunded half of the premium payment I had made for the month in which my dog was euthanized. My experience with PetsBest has been outstanding - their claims process is extremely fast and efficient, they are a great company to deal with , and even sent a sympathy card on the passing of my dog. A great company !!!

This is the Best Pets Insurance

Bagel contracted Lyme disease. We have to bring him to the vet a few times and drugstore for medication. I submitted the claim by fax with all the receipts in Mid May and it turns around in a week and direct deposit into my account. They are fast and simple. This is the best Pets Insurance.

They are THE BEST!

We decided to get pet insurance when our healthy malamute was around 8 years old. We went with Pets Best, recommended by a friend, and we're glad we did. They were great through his senior years, and during the last months of his cancer treatment. They even paid back $ for cremation costs. I have nothing but great things to say about this company, we're insuring our two new dogs with them now that our mal passed away, and I especially want to thank Bryn, who is perhaps the most helpful, and kind, insurance agent on planet earth!! Thank you! We'll be clients for the next many decades!

Lifesaver!

Recently put pet insurance on our newly adopted shelter dog, only had him 1 month and after 17 days of pet insurance he broke his back paw (4 bones), the first 5 claims have been reimbursed 80% within 7 business days. We are right now around 3K in vet bills with surgery, plates, x-rays, etc etc...no hassle, they did have to request more medical records from two different vets, but communication, follow up e-mails, and live chat customer service have all been very pleasant and I've had no issues what so ever. Insurance policy is clear and easy to understand - very very pleased!

BEST Pet Insurance Ever!

When we needed Pets Best support because one of our babies were ill, they were there for us! The Staff is wonderful and kind. They process our claims very quickly and have never questioned the diagnosis, unless it was unclear and at that, they called our Vet and had the claim processed immediately.
