I highly recommend

Gustav have serious allergy problems. At least once a month he ends up at the vet for a shot, allergy pills and usually an antibiotic. Never have I had a problem with Pets Best Pet Health Insurance. I highly recommend them and will never change.

It is so easy to file a claim

It is so easy to file a claim. My vet emails the invoice to me and I simply upload it to Pets Best. Then they notify me of the reimbursement and the money goes straight into my bank account. It couldn't me easier.

Happy with the end result

Our dog was hit by a motor vehicle and had to go through an extensive surgery and recovery process. This claim was originally denied stating that it did not fall within the insurance policies parameters. We appealed the claim and had to obtain further clarification and justification from our Veterinarian as we were 100% sure that it was a mistake and that it did in fact fall under our current Pets Best insurance policy. It then took nearly the full 60 day appeal window and we then received the funds as expected. We're happy with the end result and feel that Pets Best made the overall right decision to help us out, thank you. We will be remaining a Pet's Best insurance policy holder to ensure our pets are well covered in the future.
