Pets Best is THE BEST!

Pets Best is the best pet insurance for my 3 year old AKC German Shepherd male dog! The coverage is good and claims are easy to file and if a refund is due the company explains clearly what IS or IS NOT covered and are fast in processing. My Shepherd began having seizures and all his blood work/MRI/ and current ongoing medications were/are covered under the plan I have after co pay if any is needed. I have used another pet insurance company with my other German Shepherds BUT I found Pets Best to be the BEST so for! :)

Pets Best is second to none!

Addison has allergies and this time it showed up in her paws...it was red in between her toes and one paw had small nodules. It didn't impact her walking but it bothered her a lot. She's still not over it and the vet said it might take more antibiotics to clear it up completely. Pets Best is 2nd to none! Thank you!

Continue to be impressed with Pets Best.

I continue to be impressed with Pets Best Insurance. Their claims process is so simple and quick. I had to take my kitty to the vet on an urgent basis and the bill was quite steep. Pets Best reimbursed me for nearly half of the cost. My kitty is back to 100% thankfully. I only wish my health insurance provider was a fraction as good as Pets Best!

Please at how quick and easy the claims process is.

This was my first claim experience with pet health insurance. I was a little sceptical at first, but now very glad I decided to give it a try. I was very pleased with how easy it was to send a claim and how quickly it was taken care of. I would highly recommend Pets Best to anyone looking for pet insurance. Why can't claims and payments for human insurance be this easy. Thank You very much!
