Amazing loving company

Pets Best was the best option for our family. It was super easy to use the app to submit claims and they were very quick to process the claims. When our dog passed they even sent us a card and the staff signed it! I wouldn’t go with any other company. Love them, worth every penny.

Highly recommended!

Unfortunately my puppy needed urgent back surgery, followed by multiple complications. Pets best insurance was a lifesaver, and they literally were the easiest to work with, the process was very simple and I am grateful I had the insurance! They truly save my puppy!! I highly recommend this company!

Upfront about coverage, no hidden fees, quick processing

Let insurance is a wise decision. Saves money and eases decision making when faced with an illness or injury.
