Finding a insurance for my poodle

I had never really knew much about insurance for pets, I alwys figured it would not be worth all the hassle! Boy was I wrong!!! Mr. Vincent my toy poodle is my very first baby ever,I was illiterate to anything that had to do with pets!!! I got him at 3 months old with all paperwork and assumed OK THIS IS IT.... once he got sick and I got a bill of 718.00 i could not believe it!!! I began doing my research and after reviewing and speaking with almost any insurance company I found, Pets Best was the only one I felt comfortable and completely at ease. They answered all my questions and stood on the phone with me for almsot an hour, exploring what would be best for my buddy. Finally they found the perfect one for us!!! Since then I've used the policy 1 time and OMG!!! that was the really the time I was truly grateful I had choose Pets Best!!!! My claim was started and taken care of within 4 days!!! My reimbursement check was sent direct deposit and it BOOM DONE!!!! they were with me evey step of the way and really cared about his wellbeing not only HIS POLICY NUMBER!!! Def the insurance to choose when getting the best for ur lifetime friend!!!! They give us unconditional why not give it back!!!! You guys r the best!!!!

Pets Best has been excellent

We have filed a lot of claims lately due to a degenerative condition. Pets Best has been generally excellent on the phone at explaining the policy and having compassion for our situation. Claims have always been processed very quickly and if there's ever a delay, we receive an email in advance.
