Pets Best Insurance is easy to submit

Pets Best Insurance is easy to submit, and their turn around time is quick...if it is something that isn't covered by your policy, it's easy to look up and they are available for questions or concerns. I would recommend it! 5 stars !

Pleased with Pets Best.

Pickles suffers from seasonal skin allergies. During both Spring and Fall she has flare ups which require treatment from her veterinarian. The process for reimbursement of her expenses couldn't be better. So very pleased with Pets Best!!

I am so glad I got Pets Best.

I submitted a claim for my pet's spay surgery on Oct 9 and by Oct 11 the EOB came through, very thoroughly processed, with reimbursement for things I hadn't realized were covered. I expect the reimbursement to arrive soon. I am so glad I got Pets Best and the wellness plan!

Claim filing is a snap.

The ability to file a claim without using snail mail. My Blackie cat's RX claim filing is a snap. Mahalo.
