Easy to use claims submission online.

Cassie had an eye infection and the vet office told me what papers I would need to file with you. I did so and your site was easy to use. Very pleased with you.

I have submitted several claims for my…

I have submitted several claims for my dog, after one month their website has 'processed' next to all my claims, when I opened up detailed information, it said that petsbest tried to contact my vet but were unsuccessful. So, I called my vets' department of records, and they told me no-one has ever contacted them from petsbest regarding my pet. Well, I authorized the release of information to petsbest anyway and called petsbest. They said they would contact my vet again. Two weeks passes by, I call petsbest, they tell me that all my claims are closed. Nevertheless they kept charging me money for their lack of services. Extremely unprofessional. Stay away from that company, as they will make sure to charge you money but give nothing in return.

Fast Service

I had to submit my first claim with Pets Best and was pleasantly surprised at how fast I was able to get my reimbursement. I unfortunately will have more claims to submit because I just learned that the mass removed was malignant, but this is why I took out pet insurance in the first place. Thank you for such prompt service!

Pets Best took great care of us.

My dog had a broken toenail that had to be removed and Pets Best took great care of us! I really appreciate that submitting claims is so easy--I can do it from my phone by just taking a picture of the vet's invoice. I also love that reimbursement is so quick!
