Helped with a vet bill for an injury.
When my dog was injured, it took the worry out of being able to afford the vet bill.

Impressed with timeliness of claims.
I was initially not interested in getting insurance for my pets but decided to do this once I got my second dog. I did not want them both to be sick at the same time and be faced with a high vet bill if either one of them get sick or worst both at the same time. When my dog got sick the claim was handled very quickly I was impressed with the timeliness.

Pets Best is wonderful.
My dog got a bottle of Vitamin D supplement from the counter and ate them all. It was late at night, so I called the advice line for assistance, who suggested I go to the Vet ER immediately. My dog got the care he needed asap and is doing great. Pets Best has been wonderful!
