Experience overall was excellent

My pet was suddenly diagnosed with Addison's disease after suffering an Addison's crisis which required emergency hospitalization. The claims process was easy and timely, my experience overall was excellent.

Best Decision I Ever Made!!

Being new to the whole pet insurance thing I was a little hesitant but after much research I found Pets Best to be the company with the best coverage and at a reasonable price. The claim process has been very easy and painless. I am informed of the status at all times and payment is prompt. Best decision I ever made!

Love PB

I knew after my last cat who died from cancer and all those vet bills I should look into pet insurance for my next cat. Well I opted for two kittens and immediately I searched for pet insurance. I was skeptical, I admit. I found pets best and they seemed to provide more than some others like the wellness program. I signed up. A few days later I take the kittens to their first vet appointment and submit a wellness claim. That was Tuesday, it's now Friday of the same week and I already have my reimbursement in my bank! I am absolutely thrilled! Unless something drastically changes going forward, I am sold, convinced and no longer skeptical. Love pets best!
