Completely satisfied with the claim process.

I was completely satisfied with the whole claim process. Communication was excellent; all I had to do was open an email! We made the right decision in choosing Pet's Best Insurance for our sweet, little pup! Thank you, Pet's Best!

Easiest claims process ever.

This was one of the easiest claims processes I've ever encountered. It only took about 3 days and I did everything from my phone. Uploaded the receipt, answered any questions...it was very simple. Thanks Pets Best for making it easy.
