I always recommend Pets Best insurance!

I unfortunately have a dog that has developed cancer. This is a heart wrenching disease for pets and their owners as well as humans. Thankfully I was wise enough to get insurance on all my pets because I'm not sure I am strong enough to do what I need to help my pet AND make the financial decisions that need to be made. I'm thankful and blessed that Pets Best helps me make the best decisions for Duchess based on HER medical needs and not MY financial situation. Not one claim has even been questioned and you have been reimbursing within 1-2 days, so thank you. Anyone that will listen to me, I beg them to get insurance on their pets and I always recommend Pets Best insurance!

Best pet insurance ever

Loki ran into the stairs (instead of up) on Christmas Eve. Such a very scary moment finding him unresponsive on the stairs. I took him to the emergency vet without thinking twice, knowing we have the best pet insurance ever. He suffered head and spine trauma, but he will be okay. Thank you Pets Best!

The claims process is so simple

The claims process is so simple. I logged into my account with my phone, took pictures of the invoice from my vet and submitted. 3 days later I received a check in the mail. Best experience I've had with an insurance company!
