Pets Best responds quickly

Our puppy suffered a tibia fracture and from treatment #1, Pets Best have responded quickly. Luna needed surgery , the bill for that was $2400 and Pets Best paid $2100 so we didn't need to worry about finances but focus our attention our loved Luna! Thank you, Pets Best!!

Better than another Pet insurance company

Normally, my claims are handled quickly and to my satisfaction. I have a dog that is ill and I have to had to put several claims and it has worked out well. Much better the another Pet insurance I had for another dog.

Pets Best is platinum of any pet insurance

I have had Pets Best for over 9 years and it continues to be the platinum of any pet insurance! I am probably your best advertisement since I brag about you to all of my friends and recommend it to everyone including the staff at my vet's office.
