Great Service

Pets Best insurance has been phenomenal. We’ve been customers for over 10 years now, with multiple small claims and three major illnesses. Throughout every situation, we’ve been able to make the best medical decisions without having to worry about financial impact as Pets Best has never pushed back on any claim. I can’t recommend them enough to any pet parent!

NOT EVEN CUSTOMER'S BEST....

I am disabled senior displaced from new home due to environmental, biohazardous debris in studio apt for 1 mo and counting, canceled PuppySpot delivery and failed to cancel Pet's Best insurance. Many health and habibility issues persist. Pet's Best will only reimburse me for 1 month due to their rigid 30 day cancellation policy. PB website is ADA non-compliant and operator has no phone number for me to escalate my request for the 1 more month of reimbursement. This presents 1 more violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Inaccessibility, inflexibile rules, rigid rip-off, very poor customer service is a serious RED FLAG for pet owners with disabilities.

Pets Best Easy Claim Process

Our 2+ yo Golden Retriever, Lucy, was due for her annual HeartGard & NexGard meds & other routine vaccinations. Pets Best has consistently compensated approximately 50%+/-. The process for claim approval is straightforward with timely payment. "
