Awesome service!

The middle child, Otto; had a torn ACL. We immediately took him to the vet and then he had his surgery a week later. Awesome service! Easy to submit claim online. They do the rest in a timely manner.

Great Pet Insurance

I was not sure if Pet insurance was the best for our two great danes,however I had researched and found out just how expensive their illness and really any procedure could be. Therefore I decided to try Pets Best and was really glad I did. they have very fast service with direct deposit, a low deductible and if you don't understand why something was not paid they will work with you until they change or you understand the EOB. To me that is the most important thing. I would definitely recommend them to a friend and I have to many. Thanks Brenda

Prompt service.

Promptness to interact with me. I scanned the claim and submitted it email. They sent me a quick response that it was not readable and gave me detailed instructions on how to resubmit the claim. I mailed the claim on submission #2. Within a few days I received an email stating the claim was being processed and within a few days from that email I received an email with documentation if the claim processed and notification it was being deposited into bank account. Very satisfied with service.
