Ridiculously long time to resolve a simple claim

Took a month to resolve a simple ER visit for a suspected ingestion of a toxic substance. I had to go back to the clinic 2 times for more “info”. Wasn’t reimbursed for anything as it was all applied to the deductible. Any money you save on claims will be gobbled up by Pets Best. A complete ripoff.

Honest & Good Company

Easy process & company to deal with. Hardest part is getting your vet to send over everything they need. Definitely will recommend!

Pets Best is great

Pets Best is great! We (unfortunately) have needed them quite a bit this past year and they have always been quick and professional in handling our claims. Submitting claims is easy and seamless, which you need, when you have other things like a sick dog to worry about!

Zoe's Lifesaver: A Five-Star Review for Pets Best Health Insurance

For anyone out there who shares their life with a furry friend, you know the fear of unexpected vet bills. That's why I'm writing this glowing review for Pets Best Insurance. They've been an absolute lifesaver for my dog Zoe and me over the past two years. Two years ago, my sweet Zoe started exhibiting signs of discomfort and having accidents. A trip to the vet confirmed our worst fears: bladder stones. The diagnosis was followed by a whirlwind of tests, consultations, and ultimately, surgery. Needless to say, the cost was daunting. Thankfully, we had the foresight to enroll Zoe in a pet insurance plan with Pets Best Insurance. Their claims process was incredibly smooth and efficient. They reviewed the bills quickly, and I received reimbursement for a significant portion of Zoe's treatment within a few days of each submission. This financial support was a game-changer. It allowed me to focus on Zoe's recovery without the added stress of worrying about the cost. I could genuinely prioritize her well-being, knowing a large part of the financial burden was covered. Even beyond the financial support, Pets Best Insurance has been exceptional. Their customer service representatives are always friendly, helpful, and patient, answering any questions I have with care and understanding. Zoe is now a happy and healthy dog, free from bladder stones. Thanks to Pets Best Insurance, I was able to give her the best possible care without facing financial hardship. I can't recommend them enough!
