PETS BEST is the best!

PETS BEST is the best! My sweet girl who happens to be dressed in a dog suit has had Pets Best Insurance for 10 years. Claims are extremely easy to submit. Explanation of Benefits are expeditious and reimbursement is very quick.

Wouldnt Credit Me Even Though I had Remaining Allowance

Coverage started out fine. I had standard insurance and got the wellness insurance for my pup. ITS NOT WORTH IT! Find a Vet that is reasonably priced and just pay. There are a lot of free and discounted services out there. Make sure you ask your Vet if anythings available. I went to get my dog neutered. I had a $150 allowance towards neutering and only used like $120 of that. Blood work was done, which was required by my Vet for the service and PetsBest wouldnt cover the cost of that, even though I had letters of confirmation that it was standard procedure of neutering. I told them, I have $30 left of my $150 allowance. They still wouldn't credit me that remaining balance. So now what do I use that money for? Nothing... I removed my dog completely from this carrier.
