You are the best!

My 1 year old Boston Terrier, Ella needed surgery to correct luxated patella of both back legs. Without your insurance we could not have afforded the surgery. Now Ella is recovering well and we are very glad we decided to purchase your insurance for her. Thank you 😊

No Hassle Claim Payment

Pets Best has seen us through multiple health issues with our 2 Maltese - 1 developed a heart condition at age 11 and lived to age 14 - 1/2 and the other developed cancer at age 11 and is still alive today at age 15!! I just cancelled our policy since we are focusing on her comfort care now rather than any more major medical treatments but HIGHLY recommend Pets Best to anyone with a furry child!
