We Love Pets Best

If you consider your pet a family member as we do, pet insurance is a must. Several years ago we lost a beloved dog suddenly in the middle of the night. We would have spent what ever was necessary to save her. For this reason we decided to purchase insurance. We never thought we would have to use it. To our our shock several months later, our Vet gave us the news our dog has cancer. In our wildest imagination we never thought cancer treatment could be this expensive.Our purchase of Pets Best was a God-Send. We now have a partner to help us fight this cruel disease. Pets Best has great customer service, is very affordable, paying out thousands of dollars. When we renewed our policy our rates increased only a small amount due to our dog being a year older. We can only say good things about this Company. Thanks so much Pets Best.

Always very prompt

My dog has been recovering from a foot wound that has required multiple visits to the vet over a 5-week period. The response to claims filed for these visits was always very prompt and the information provided enabled me to understand the decision on each.

Pet's best is the absolutely the BEST!

I have a rescued fur baby and was advised by her vet to continue the insurance they had on her. She is young and active and so sweet. So glad I did as she has had 2 surgeries to date. Pet's best is the absolutely the BEST!

Amazed at how easy

I was amazed at how easy it was to file my claim, and I was so impressed with how quickly it was processed. Furthermore, they covered all my charges. Sometimes in cases like this you might find nitpicky exclusions But that was not the case and I was very happy about that.
