False advertisement
They advertise benefits that won't work once you desire to use them. Like any other insurance it is a scam, really disappointed, a lot of people recommended I not go with them, and use a different provider but I liked the Wellness benefits, definitely I don't recommend them, the customer service is okay and they answer pretty fast, but the policies have small letters like any other insurance the difference here is that they have stuff announced and they won't follow what they promised.

Accurate information regarding coverage or policy
I was disappointed to find out that an overnight emergency stay, some medications weren't covered and any exams fees at the vet! In my opinion, anything involved with an emergency visit should be covered since a pet owner most definitely cannot fix their pet themselves! We are truly grateful for the insurance but we do also pay for it. I am also disappointed that when I called about coverage the morning before bringing our dog to the vet as an emergency visit, the agent told me that what my deductible would be, the 10% on the owner's part wasn't mentioned & she also said that any after-care medications would be covered. I also called a second time; day of the surgery, inquiring again about expected costs. I was not told that if there was an overnight stay, the emergency exam & that not all medications would be covered. Our understanding of what we had expected was to play our $250 deductible. Again; we are truly thankful to have insurance, but cost of what's not covered should definitely be brought forward instead of getting a shock! We expected to possibly pay $500/$600 ourselves but not over $1000 out of our own pocket! It was scary enough not knowing if our per was going to be ok but having to second guess costs was stressful as well. A friend of ours started a fundraiser to help us pay the rest of what we didn't have the $ to pay. We had to also travel 1 hour and a half to the nearest available vet. Thankfully Clarenville Vet Hospital is very understanding & is flexible in helping their customers & pets. They didn't cause any further stress of the outstanding balance that we still have. Not fully impressed with the lack of information given when I called to inquire about what to expect.
Dishonest
We have had a good experience for the last two years until now. The last two years our claims were insignificant amounts and Pets Best had no issues paying out. This last month our dog needed knee surgery which from diagnostics to post op follow ups is over $7k. They denied our claim based on our dog having had knee surgery on his other knee 3 years prior. I spoke with a representative over the phone on choosing the correct coverage with full disclosure of previous knee surgery and other preexisting conditions. The representative told me which coverage to get and that his knee would be covered if God forbid he needed it. So here we are stuck with this medical bill and not even the initial diagnostics to determine what was wrong with his limb was not even covered. Pets Best is a waste of time and money since they will not pay out for bigger claims. I’m very disappointed!

Always a catch
I’ve had this insurance for one of my dogs for years. They don’t pay for exams yet their premiums are no different than other insurance companies. They refused to pay a claim stating it was wellness that I submitted as there was a possibility of parasites again. I filed an appeal and they still refused. I’m just not sure pet insurance is worth it anymore. They always find a way to deny claims. I would not recommend this company.

We’re sorry for any confusion with your claim. Your claim was denied under the wellness exclusion. Since the invoice only noted a parasite exam without any medication, without clarification it appeared to be wellness related. A member of our Customer Care Team replied to your email on 7/10 noting that if you would like to have the claim reviewed, we would need medical records from that visit. We never received a response, nor were records submitted. As such an appeal case was not started. We are happy to take a second look at this claim for you if you simply provide either the date of service examination notes for the test or a letter of clarification from your veterinarian. The examination fee is a plan exclusion and as such is not eligible for coverage. We strive to be completely transparent about this exclusion and our entire policy. Information about this is available prior to and after enrollment via the Frequently Asked Questions on our website and in our online sample policy.
Love MetLife
I Have purchases and used other pet insurance policies in the past years but have never been as happy with any as I am with MetLife. My claims are paid within 2 weeks, and it is so easy to file. I am very pleased with everything about this company.
So glad I purchased this insurance.
2 years ago I purchased Embrace insurance, I was not happy with them. After joining a Facebook pet insurance group, I read up on peoples posts and replies. I saw a few insurance policies that looked interesting to me, I called several of them and ultimately chose Met life Pet. My coverage includes wellness, illness, and accident, it was 250.00 deductible and 0 dollars out of pocket once I met the 250.00 deductible. My coverage was 5k per cat ( I have 2) total of 10K. One of my cats developed colitis, and the monthly prescription is 100% covered because it was not a per-existing condition. My experience with submitting claims has been seamless when using the phone app. I am able to send claims on the computer as well. Customer service has been fantastic by phone and email. It is best to call for the best policy quote, CS reps are very knowledgeable when speaking by phone. I have heard that the coverage available have changed, but it is still a good deal. I am very happy with the insurance!!

I have a 6 year old female Australian Shepherd who became violently ill with non stop vomiting. Brought her to an animal emergency vet, $600 later brought her home - still vomiting. Took her to another animal hospital- she was admitted for two nights for observation and dehydration; desperately in need of IV fluids. Total bill - $ 2000. So relieved to be able to make a claim on the pet insurance. I had a $100 deductible and was covered 80%. It relieved the financial burden and I was able to focus on her recovery.

Pet Insurance is saving my dog from a painful life
My previous dog had cancer. I didn’t have insurance and had heard that it wasn’t worth the money. I spent all of my savings on chemo for him. When I got my new dog I was afraid she would get cancer one day and I would not be in a financial position to pay for it. I never wanted to be in a position of putting my pet to sleep because I didn’t have the money for health care. My vet recommended Trupanion and I chose a 1000 dollar deductible to keep my premiums down. I thought that I would be able to cover vet costs unless she was hit by a car or ended up with cancer when she was older. My new puppy seemed happy and healthy until she was 5 months old and I noticed she limped after a busy day. She also started to have a problem with yeast in her ears. Now my dog is 20 months old. Her ear problem has continued and I have now spent more on her vet care for her ears than my deductible. While it is nice that costs associated with her ear infections is covered now, I could come up with the money to pay for it. Her problem with limping, however is a different story. My beloved dog Calabaza has elbow dysplasia in both front legs. Without Trupanion I would not have been able to pay for the CT scan that was required to confirm the diagnosis and plan the course of treatment let alone pay for the treatment. Without treatment my beautiful golden retriever would suffer from arthritis as her elbow joints disintegrated. As a pet owner who considers her dog a member of the family it would have been devastating to have to decide between helping my pet or financial ruin. Luckily, I don’t have to make that decision, thanks to the Trupanion policy I purchased. I am so grateful to have Trupanion. Within minutes of the specialist vet telling me Cala needed a CT scan I received an email telling me what Trupanion would cover and how much my portion would be. My dog is having surgery in a few days and I can spend my time deciding how I will manage her aftercare instead of trying to find a way to covèr the cost. Thank You Trupanion!!!
