Happy with PetsBest for over a decade

So, we've been with PetsBest for 10+ years, with policies for our three cats, all of them rescues from shelters, including Smoky, who made it to 18 years old before he passed earlier this year. Smoky had multiple health challenges and medications, and the staff at PetsBest were the absolute best at helping us decide the best care that we could afford on our budget (we're retired). PetsBest has always been an awesome partner, just as important as our vet.

Awesome Service

I just wanted to say how impressed I was with the speed of processing my claims and depositing the reimbursement in my checking account. AWESOME SERVICE! I was somewhat reluctant in purchasing insurance but am so glad that I did. Who knew that sixteen months later that Roxie would need surgery? So, so glad that I bought Pets Best, but hoping for no more major injuries! Thanks so much for the great service!

Great insurance

Great insurance for my dogs. They have helped me a lot while my dog went through chemo for her lymphoma.
