Easy to process claim

Very quick response. The explanation of benefits broke everything down perfectly.

Healthy Paws is AMAIZNG!

"I have nothing but GREAT things to say about having my baby boy insured through Healthy Paws! Their quick response time, fantastic coverage, and exceptional customer service have made all the difference. Every representative I’ve spoken with has been kind, knowledgeable, and helpful, always making the process smooth and stress-free. I truly appreciate the peace of mind they provide, knowing my boy is well taken care of. Thank you, Healthy Paws, for helping me keep him happy and healthy!"

Don't use Trupanion

I completely agree with the other 1-star reviews. This company is nearly impossible to reach. I've spent over an hour just waiting on hold to speak with someone. While they offer a callback option, it’s not much help—you’re still stuck waiting since you don’t want to miss their call and start the process all over again. To make matters worse, they mishandled my cancellation and only issued a partial refund. The good news? There are other companies that offer better service at a lower price. I highly recommend looking elsewhere.

Terrible company

This is the worse insurance company I've ever had. They have terrible customer service, they take months to give you your money back from a claim and won't cancel you when you ask them to. I was fed up with their terrible customer service, and waiting months to get my claim money back, so I asked them on the phone in January to cancel my policy. They said they would and they sent me an email to submit a cancellation request. I filled it out and sent it back. In February I was charged $80 for my policy that should have already been cancelled. I call in to ask about it and the lady says, " Oh yeah that's so weird. It looks like that policy was cancelled but a new one was opened and that's why you were charged this month." I told her I cancelled my policy completely with y'all and nothing should be active. I never opened a new one. She said " I will make sure everything is cancelled and we will refund you that money." So they sent me another cancellation request email to fill out and I did. I've been waiting 5 days now to get money that was taken from me without approval. Which made me negative in my bank account because I didn't have $80 to spend in the first place. These people will be rude to you on the phone, not cancel your policy when you ask them to, not give you your money back for a claim until months later, and steal money from you without consent. Terrible company, terrible insurance, terrible customer service. 0 out of 10. Would not recommend to anyone. This company only cares about money, not you.

Everything so easy from beginning to end. Great explanation of what I was getting reimbursed for. So easy to submit claim. Very pleased.

PLEASE DO NOT GET THIS INSURANCE!

PLEASE DO NOT GET THIS INSURANCE! I have paid thousands in premiums for a very healthy 10 year old dog. They have only approved and reimbursed me a TOTAL OF $120! They have denied everything, even claimed her allergy shots and dental cleanings as "pre-existing", even though I have had my coverage with them for over 5 years, and her allergies just started a year ago. I also had wellness coverage with a $100 dental benefit. They denied this because she had plaque on her teeth, so they categorized it as an illness and not wellness. Isn't this why they get dental cleanings? To clean the plaque off? Absolutely ridiculous. They lured me in because of their affiliation with The Dodo, but they take complete advantage of people. They are a shameful company. I am so disappointed I wasted so much money with them before coming to my senses. From one pet lover to another, please, please, do not make the same mistake I did and give this company your money. Your pet would be much better served elsewhere.

Way simpler than expected

My cat ate polyester stuffing and had to go to the emergency vet. The claims process was extremely easy and everything was processed rapidly. I appreciated the clarity of the EOB too. Overall, I wish my human health insurance operated to the same standard of professionalism!

So far, so good…

"All insurance policies are needlessly too complex to fully understand, and too much is left to the subjective opinion of the insurer, rather than the considered opinion of the doctor. That said, I pay a small gortune to get the highest coverage gor my two dogs, and Pets Best has proven to be as responsive and, fair as any other pet insurance I have tried over many years. So, I can recommend them : )

Lightning fast processing/payout

I submitted a claim at 3am after getting home from a very stressful emergency visit with my pup for sudden seizures. Took me about 3 minutes to submit my claim via the app, including uploading a screenshot of my paid, itemized bill. Visit was 1/27, claim submitted 3am 1/28, claim paid out 1/29. Funds took about a week to hit my bank account, but that’s not a PB issue. I’ve had monthlong waits in the past, so this was an extremely welcome surprise during a brutal time for our family. Great company. I’ve recommended them to everyone who will listen! I’ll never again be faced with choosing between getting the care my pets need or passing because I can’t afford it. There’s so much peace knowing that.

Healthy Paws Went Extra Mile

I had a very positive experience with Healthy Paws. My dog was recently diagnosed with an inoperable tumor and the only treatment was very costly radiation therapy. Healthy Paws covered the bulk of this expensive treatment, plus the also very costly diagnostic tests that preceded it. Moreover, they handled things promptly and professionally so I was able to concentrate on getting my dog the care she needed instead of getting bogged down with all kinds of additional obstacles. This whole process involved numerous (often daily) visits to the vet and Healthy Paws often reimbursed invoices within a day or two of submission (even over the Christmas and New Year’s holiday). I am very grateful for the efficiency and sensitivity in the way they handled things and it made an incredibly stressful ordeal infinitely more manageable.
