Grateful

I had been ready to cancel this policy as I had no reason to qualify for payments. A representative worked with me to make it more $$ feasible. Thank goodness because I was very grateful to get some reimbursements for a significant vet bill.

15 years of experience

15 years of experience with two dogs under the protection of Pets Best. My oldest Dog, Smitty, recently passed, but he lived a good life because I never hesitated to see a Vet or spend my limited resources to give him the best of care. I felt that I had a very sincere and personal relationship when It was necessary to seek help from the customer care staff, We had a major scare for Smitty right after our move to Idaho and the Spokane Valley. Smitty appeared to have ingested poison resulting in an autoimmune disease of his nail beds. It required many different medications and trips to the Vet. Fortunately, Pets Best stayed the course for the suffering Smitty endured to the end of his life. My orher friend Ian is also insured by Pets Best Health. Since both my dogs were rescue dogs, they came with unexpected problems and health issues but I will always be grateful for the wonderful converage and service we receive from Pets Best Heath Insurance.
