Never had any problems with claims.

Every time I send my claims for my 2 pets, I've never had any problem with my claims whatsoever. Sending a claim is so easy. Pets Best instantly send a confirmation of receipt. Claim is paid in a week, most of the time. I have been referring Pets Best to my friends and family. It's so nice to have this insurance for our little pets. Thank you, Pets Best!

They do a great job!

I came home from work and my dog somehow cut a huge gash in his front leg about 6 inches long. Took him to the ER vet for surgery on a Monday night. Pets Best reimbursement my claim and money was back in my account by Friday with no questions asked. They do a great job!

Completely satisfied with the claim process.

I was completely satisfied with the whole claim process. Communication was excellent; all I had to do was open an email! We made the right decision in choosing Pet's Best Insurance for our sweet, little pup! Thank you, Pet's Best!

No complaints with claim process.

My experience with the claim processing with Pets Best was very positive. It was an easy process to submit the claim and the turnaround time for completion was very short. There are no complaints with the overall process.

Easiest claims process ever.

This was one of the easiest claims processes I've ever encountered. It only took about 3 days and I did everything from my phone. Uploaded the receipt, answered any questions...it was very simple. Thanks Pets Best for making it easy.
