Pets Best is THE BEST

Dear Pets Best Customer Care Team, This is to say a huge "Thank You" for your kindness and compassion during Zoe's most recent (sadly fatal) illness. Human insurance companies could/should take lessons from you. Your claim process is incredibly simple and straightforward. Your coverage is comprehensive and easy to understand. Your re-imbursement process very fast and seamless. And to top off everything, you sent a sympathy card that brought tears to our eyes. Needless to say that I have spoken very highly of you and recommended your company to all my animal-loving friends as well as to various vetrinary clinic staff. We will be getting another fur-baby in the near future and intend insuring her with you from the very beginning. You are "The Best" ...Pets Best! Warmest Regards, Marye L. Thomas

Pets Best has been awesome

The entire process was extremely easy. Diesel became sick, bleeding in stool. Took him to the vets office that day. They did several test and gave his a shot and several medications. Three days later he was back to himself. I submitted my classes claim via the Mobil app, took about 2mins. I was notified my claim had been received and in review. Approximately three days later my claim was paid and a detailed statement was emailed to me. Pets Best has been awesome through both of my claims!!
