Excellent customer support

Reached out to customer support with a couple nuanced questions and was connected with Blair, who promptly and knowledgeably answered everything I needed and more. He was able to quickly adjust our policy and was extremely friendly and polite. Refreshing customer support service, hope anyone who calls in is fortunate enough to be connected with him.

Pets best has been easy to work with and submit claims. Claims take awhile to process but they paid according to my policy without a hassle. I would recommend them.
