Milo's 1st Vet Visit

My kitten Milo, and myself went to Belcrest Animal Hospital a few weeks back for his first visit and shots. I used the invoice from the appointment that same day and filed a claim. Pets Best was quick to keep me updated and my reimbursement took no time at all to direct deposit. I am very much enjoying how comprehensive the app, and claims process have been so far.

Easy claim processing

Since I am low-tech, I sent my claim by snail mail; but PetsBest processed it quickly and notified me of the outcome via my email. I am pleased with my choice of PetsBest pet insurance for my sweet Daisy.

Grateful

Not recently but over a year ago my St Bernard was diagnosed with bone cancer. I decided to do treatment and once my deductible was met Pets Best reimbursed me 80% of all my dogs treatment. They sent the money very quickly and it allowed me to spend what was needed for treatment. I am so grateful for that. I had my sweet boy for an extra six months , and pets best also reimbursed me 80% on the euthanasia and his cremation. It was heartbreaking to lose him but I am eternally grateful for the extra 6 months I had.
