Easiest transaction

In August of this year my little kitty got sick got wonderful care from her vet. However it took some time for me to actually sit down and turn in the medical bills for my reimbursement only because I thought it would take a long time and it would be arduous. However to my thankful surprise Pets Best was the easiest transaction I could have ever imagined! All I did was upload the billing statements from my vet to Pets Best Within 24 to 48 hours my claim was processed and reimbursements had been forwarded to my banking account. I am so grateful to Pets Best.

Super fast

Our Gracie had developed a hot spot and had to receive an allergy shot to help it heal. Pet's Best was super fast with the claim and paid 90% of the cost if the shot. It was super simple to file and we are very satisfied with their customer service experience. Thanks!

Pleasantly surprised

This is the first time I have had pet insurance and I was pleasantly surprised by the ease and the quick response. I purchased the wellness pack knowing our puppy who just turned a year had his annual vaccinations coming due as well we needed to get him neutered. We did everything in one visit, snapped a pic of the invoice to submit with the online claim and in a couple days I received notice that the claim had been paid [direct deposit to my bank account] along with an explanation of what was paid. I'm very ?? happy.
