Best insurance for your pet!

This company has went above and beyond my expectations when covering our unexpected vet visit with our puppy who recently had new onset of seizures. The claims process was quick and easy and they covered almost all of the bill without question or issue. Will keep this insurance for life and recommend to anyone else shopping for it.

Disappointed and unsure why I pay so much

My first two vet visits were covered almost 100%. When I took my girl for a wellness check for her 2nd birthday they wouldn't even cover her rabies vaccine or distemper. $415 bill and they paid $117. Why am I paying a premium if suddenly I can "cap" on necessary vaccines and care for a healthy dog? Even in the fine print I didn't see that. Disappointed in my pet insurance choice now when I expected the vaccines and heartworm care and tests to be covered.

Pets Best

I appreciate how responsive Pets Best is for the claims I've had to file for both of my pets over the last year. The site is easy to.navigate and the claims process is easy & efficient. Reimbursed funds deposit directly to my bank, so all i do is scan & upload invoices from my vet & Pets Best does the rest! Highly recommend their plans.

Thankful

I submitted a claim, and within 24 hours it was approved, and reimbursement was on its way. This gives me peace of mind knowing that my boy is covered for an emergency.
