Pets Best… best decision I ever made!

I honestly don't know what I would have done without Pets Best. As my three dogs have gotten older, there have been several tests, cancers and surgeries that have needed to take place. Having Pets Best insurance has been invaluable in allowing me to make the right decisions for my dogs, as well as enabling the best care for them as they age. In addition, the turnaround time on processing claims has gotten much faster! In most cases, I have already been reimbursed in time to make my credit card payment… which has been so appreciated. Thank you, Pets Best, for helping me care for my girls with the dignity they deserve in return for all the unconditional love they give! 🙏

Bowser the Beagle

"We got a new puppy last year and decided to get pet insurance just in case. Bowser got sick (coughing and vomiting). We had to take him to the vet where they kept him for 2 nights while running tests. It was super easy to submit the claim and heard back sooner than I expected with a detailed claim summary about what was covered, I'm very glad we decided to get the insurance and didn't have to worry about how bad the vet bill was going to be while we were worried about our sick fur baby being sick.

Pets Best 5 stars

I have been with Pets Best for many years and now with my second dog. I absolutely love them. Their customer service is wonderful and their ease of submitting claims on the app is great. All of my experiences with Pest Best have been easy and wonderful. I have never once had a complaint with any of their service.

Thankful for Pet’s Best

I am so thankful to have had Pet's Best insurance throughout my dog Maverick's IVDD journey. From the first signs of injury, through the surgical process and the following physical therapy treatments I never had to worry whether I could afford treatment. This was all due to having insurance I could rely on. Claims have been paid promptly which has relieved a great deal of stress. We can never thank you enough for enabling us to get the best care for Maverick so that he can live a happy, pain free life. My husband and I will continue to recommend Pet's Best to people we know with pets.
