Pets Best is the Best!
I live in Alaska and encountering bears while hiking is not unusual. We were hiking and came around a corner and were surprised to see a bear cub. My dog, Evie, touched noses with the bear and the Mama bear didn't like that and swatted Evie from behind and she ended up with two fairly deep gashes! Pets Best accidental insurance to the rescue!

Claim Processing time is AWFUL
I've used Pets Best for two years and have until lately been very very happy with them in all regards. However, the current claim-processing time of NEARLY A MONTH is bordering on unacceptable. My dog's bills are substantial and i hold up my end of the deal by paying my (rising) premiums on time, submitting my claims as correctly as is humanly possible and never trying to be a scheister in regard to preexisting conditions or any coverage that i am not entitled to. But as the year comes to a close, i am watching my bank account dwindle as Pets Best sits on my claims for weeks. I don't know if it's an end-of-the year thing or a new management thing but i hope it gets resolved soon. I have stopped recommending Pets Best to anybody who will listen. In fact, I am not currently recommending Pets Best to anybody.
