I tell everyone

I tell everyone Pets Best is the best pet insurance and I have two new converts. It's easy to send a claim, and you get a direct deposit in days. I don't have to tell you these things, but you are fabulous. I first joined when I adopted a dog from a local shelter (his name was Dodger and I was told he was 5 years old, turns out he was at least 12). He died the day after I signed him up with Pets Best. Your company was so understanding when I called to cancel to inform you of his death. I had never sent in a claim but you were kind enough to send a sympathy card. My puppy Sunshine, turns one today. Thank You for being the best.

Thank goodness for Pets Best

Lil Guy went in for a sore back/leg and the regular vet determined that he had a heart murmur. It had never been detected before. Thank goodness for Pets Best and the comforting thoughts that I can take him in to the specialty vet to have it checked out and I have insurance to help pay for the EKG.

Pets Best is the best decision you can ever make for the sake of your pets.

This policy has been the best decision I ever made. When my older dog Bandit came down with cancer, Pets Best was right there with their easy as hell claim process, quite response time and excellent customer service. There is no question about it. They are worth the money should you ever need it.
