Filed claim from my cellphone

It was time to have our puppy spay & microchipped. When we returned from our appointment & filed our claim the next day via cellphone, we received an immediate reply. In less than 5 days our refund was deposited into our checking account. We are extremely happy with our refund and the ease of filing a claim. I would recommend Pets Best to everyone!

Covers medications

My dog has allergies and arthritis and has to take med everyday to make his quality of life good. The insurance cover 80% of his med's, which can be very expensive, so it is till worth it for me the pay the ins. But if it goes up much more I wont able to afford either. As it increases a couple hundred dollars each year at his age. Over all glad I've had it his 7 years of life.

This claim was a hard one to s…

This claim was a hard one to submit as my darling boy Mooky had to be put to sleep at the end of his cancer diagnosis. I was absolutely dreading the finality of then having to cancel his policy after the reimbursement was received. You did that final piece for me and I was very grateful to not have to do it. I then received a condolence card from you. Thank you for making this process a lot easier than I expected it to be, thank you for caring.
