Amazed at quick claims handling time!

I am still amazed at how quickly my claims are handled and paid! I had another insurance company for my last pet and it was a nightmare trying to deal with them. Took months to get reimbursed. So so happy I did my research and decided to go with Pets Best for my puppy. I have recommended your company to several friends and relatives. Thanks to all of you for a job well done!!

Took a chance on pet insurance.

I was not sure if I should get insurance but I took a chance and within 2 months one of my dogs tore his ACL. This could have broken the bank for us and been a difficult time but pets best has made things much less stressful.
