Keep Being Awesome!

We have had insurance for Lucy for a couple of months. I have filed claims for her medicine (heart worm and flea/tick) and for her dr. visit with vaccinations. The claims processing experience was very easy, and I got money back quickly. I am very pleased with the experience so far, keep being awesome!

Every Pet Should be Covered by This!

Every Pet Should be Covered by This! We chose to have the Best Wellness Plan, as well as an Illness plan. We wanted to know that our pup would be covered regardless of what we encountered. He had his first check up with microchip and the works. We paid $11 of a $136 bill. Knowing that in any emergency we won't be struggling and breaking the bank is very comforting. Our claim was reimbursed in three days. I would highly recommend this to anyone. Keep your loved one(s) covered and relax knowing they are well taken care of!

My dog Lola is in Good Hands - PetBest have been excellent

I am very pleased with the service that PetBest have given to my dog Lola after her eye surgery. I was reimbursed as expected from the expenses we had with our dog. I had to submit an appeal because there were some information missing from my claim but at the end I had a very good impression on how everything was handled with courtesy and understanding. I am planning to get another dog soon and will enroll her in the insurance as soon as I get her. I am also recommending PetBest to my sister that recently got a puppy.

Easy claims process.

What an easy process to claim and then receive funding for our dog. Everyone raves about this insurance before we decided to buy it and now we see why. So grateful we have it.

Online claim process is easy.

I was able to submit my claim is very easy online. The only area improvement would be reaching out to me in regards to the additional information needed as the veterinary clinic was unresponsive and I had the missing information.
