Covered

My yorki had a heartworm shot and it was covered. However she also had the test and that was not covered. I hadn't realized it was within a year since her last one. My fault

Worst insurance

Not only did not pay for promised vaccines but also declined coverage for my friends’ stating ‘historic issue’. Which pet has never had illness before signing up for your crappy policy?

A forever customer

As someone fairly new to pet insurance I wasn’t sure if it was worth the cost. I have had multiple claims with Pet’s Best and each time they are thorough, timely and the claims process is so easy. My pets will always have coverage with them.
