I have paid 4 months for insurance and when I placed a claim they declined the claim stating my dog had a preexsisting condition. My dog was never diagnosed with any condition. Also I just happen to meet my deductable. If I have to appeal every decision Im not interested in doing business with a company that spends more time trying not to pay then helping its clients.

I am so grateful to have had your insurance for past two fur babies. Peace of mind.

I would do anything for my cats and have at a very high financial price; then I found Pets Best. I truly appreciate having your insurance and your service. Thanks from both myself and Chloe. I have peace of mind for sure.

Fantastic

As I've emailed before, you guys have been fantastic throughout all the time I had you. And you made this last visit with my bestest puppy easier despite the fact that I lost him. Of/when I ever get another dog, I'll certainly be back and I've recommended you to everyone I know.
