Easy to submit a claim
It was easy to fill out the claim info and attach the scan of the itemized vet bill. The claim was paid relatively quickly, but I had to refer to my dog's policy to understand the items not covered in the claim.

Emergency vet visits without stress of costs
We recently had to deal with our French Bulldog being diagnosed with non operable spine issues. It was incredibly stressful and costly but having our Pet insurance in place and access to help with our questions was amazing. Processing of forms was super easy and reimbursement happened quickly - thank goodness for Pets Plus Us

Grateful
I am very satisfied with the Pets Best claim submission experience. I have had to file a few times, and each time, Pets Best has been very responsive and true to the policy. I was particularly worried about the most recent time I submitted because my cat had to go through an expensive surgery. I'm so grateful that I have Pets Best and was able to get a lot of the money back.

Worst investment!
This company basically just steals your money every month for the premium and denies any claims you make, regardless of what they are. My dog had an ear infection, a fluke accident, and they denied the claim because they said it was a pre-existing condition. I don't understand how an ear infection is a pre-existing condition and even had my vet write a letter stating the exact cause of the ear infection and how it just happens in dogs from time to time, it wasn't caused by anything he's ever had previously and they denied both my appeal forms. They are greedy, won't pay for anything, and make the entire process horrible. There is no one to even call about discussing a denied claim, their call center doesn't know anything and can't give you any information as to the reasoning for the denial. They said there is no way to contact the appeals team directly which is just ridiculous. Do not get insurance with them, they deny everything and do not care about your pets, just making money off of you.

Boone’s ACL
A few months ago, my high energy 2 year old blue heeler named Boone fell off our back deck and tore his ACL. We got in to see a surgeon as soon as we could and were told a TPLO surgery was the best option. The overall process of attending pre-op visits, scheduling surgery dates, and 10 weeks of recovery have been pretty stressful, and we just wanted our dog to be healthy and able to run around and play again. Submitting my claim to Pet's Best insurance has been the least stressful part of this entire ordeal. I just uploaded my documents to my claim on my account and after a few weeks the claim had been completed with a full explanation of everything that was covered. I am truly thankful for this company for taking a weight off my shoulders during this stressful time. I plan on recommending them to every pet owner I meet. Boone is currently on week 4 of his recovery and doing great, hoping he can run in the yard and go on his favorite hikes very soon!

Can't beat this service
It's not often I write about first class service, but in this case, I thought it was important to share my experience as this company is awesome on several fronts, policies offered, customer relations and more. I have been a customer for years but never filed a significant claim as I have been fortunate until recently when my German Sheperd required surgery to remove a mass from her side, then came the bill, then came Nationwide, in both cases it was a home run, great surgeon and great coverage. Wait, it gets better, once my claim was submitted via website, I got a response within 48 hours that it was received and were processing the claim then three days later the reimbursement was ready and would be electronically sent within 24-48 hours, that's a wow, extremely impressed. I would also like share the outstanding service I got at the customer care center in Orlando, Emily, she was great, she walked me thru the process to set up the electronic payment account, trust me, it wasn't easy as I'm not a computer buff but with her extreme patience and expertise we got thru it, she was great. So bottom line is, I'm a happy camper, it's a hard find today to find such high-end service, they really are on our side. Thanks to all, it's helping me deal with a bad situation, really appreciate it.

Too bad this isn't the norm. We've had policies on two of our dogs, very healthy, no issues and they are in mid-life. One of our polices was dropped, on the youngest, with the reason they wanted to boot us out of a policy we purchased four years ago, and force us into a more expensive "newer" policy. Bait & switch.
Scammy behavior when you need help
I’ve been with pets best for years without filing claims. 2 years ago I filed a claim when my dog got an auto immune disease. Not only did they fight me every step of the way to get reimbursed but now they double the monthly cost every year. It takes months to get reimbursement and now I’m stuck paying either $300/month for one dog who is generally healthy or cancelling altogether. They seem great at first but like all insurance companies, in the end all they want is a profit without having to pay out.

Very good
I had ensured my dogs, and the first month I did report the vet visit, and they reimbursed me a good amount of the bill I paid for it.
How is this legal?
After eight years as a Pets Plus Us customer, I'm incredibly disappointed with the recent changes and lack of communication I've experienced. What started as a reliable insurance provider for my furry friend has transformed into a frustrating and potentially predatory service. The initial shock came when I noticed a premium didn't come out of my bank account. Upon calling Pets Plus Us, I was informed that my policy was discontinued and I hadn't opted into their new coverage. The problem? I never received any notification of this significant change. This lack of communication alone is unacceptable for a long-standing customer. However, the real issue lies in the details of the new plan. I was offered a policy with drastically reduced coverage – a drop from $5000 per incident to a mere $3000 annually total. This represents a massive decrease in protection for my pet. To add insult to injury, this downgraded coverage comes at a higher price, nearly $30 more per month than my previous policy. When I raised my concerns with Pets Plus Us, I was essentially told that this severely limited plan was my only option. Furthermore, they informed me that if I chose to explore other plans or insurance providers with better coverage, any prior vet visits – even for common issues like vomiting or accidental ingestion – would be considered pre-existing conditions. This is a blatant attempt to strong-arm loyal customers into accepting a subpar product with significantly reduced benefits. This tactic feels incredibly disingenuous and borderline unethical. To penalize customers for exploring better options after unilaterally changing their policy is a terrible practice. It leaves me questioning the integrity of the company and its commitment to its customers. My loyalty of eight years has been met with a complete lack of transparency, a significant reduction in coverage, and thinly veiled threats. While I understand that companies can change their policies, the way Pets Plus Us has handled this transition is deeply concerning. I'm left wondering how this is even legal, and more importantly, I'm incredibly disappointed that this is how Pets Plus Us treats its long-standing customers. Be warned: what appears to be a reliable and trustworthy insurance provider can quickly become a source of frustration and financial burden. I highly recommend carefully reviewing your policy and exploring all available options before committing to Pets Plus Us.
