Using Pets Best went very smooth.

This was my 1st time using Pets Best and the only part I think I could have done differently is buying a 12pk of preventative, but submit 1/2 for each dog...other than that, it went very smooth!

Couldn't afford treatment for our dog without Pets Best.

I've filed claims with Pets Best for everything from routine check ups and vaccinations to ligament replacement on one of my dogs and the entire process is easy, quick and gives me peace of mind. When my dog needed a ligament in her knee replaced, we were able to apply insurance to it and helped significantly with the cost of surgery and with the cost of physical therapy afterwards. It took about 6 months for Evie to be able to go back to normal after that surgery and I'm not sure how we would have afforded it if it weren't for Pets Best.

Pets Best is the best.

this is by far the best pet insurance, I have Figo insurance on my other dog, and it doesn't even compare to pets best. Figo is complicated to file claims and never covers anything! Always go with pets best!

I would highly recommend Pets Best as insurance for your furbabies. Not only do you receive timely notifications and payments, you have peace of mind for your furbabies should the time arise you need it. They provide great customer service and answer any questions you may have. I have and will continue to recommend them. Keep up the pawsome job Pets Best! My furbabies appreciate it and as their mommy, I do too! 5 stars (paws)!
