Gives me peace of mind

Pets Best has been responsive to all of my claims and they have been settled quickly. Two years ago Mina had surgery to remove grass from her stomach, last year she a cruciate ligament surgery and both claims were settles within 2-3 weeks. Have Pets Best Insurance has been a blessing and gives me peace of mind that Mina can receive the treatment she needs without worrying about the cost.

I appreciate pets best

The claims process is very easy to do and takes like 5 minutes to file a claim. You process in a very timely manner and money was deposited right in my account. I appreciate pets best, you have save us a lot of money because my puppy has seizures and medication alone is expensive. Thanks for all you do.

This is so easy

I had used a different insurance for my previous dog--it was so hard to put in a claim; had to remember to bring form to vet and then fax it in. This is so easy to just submit on line the next day--I receive payment within 7-10 days!
