Best thing in did

I have gone back and forth for years - do I get pet insurance or not? I finally did and I am sooo grateful I did. Unfortunately my yorkie was diagnosed with heart failure and although nothing can help the sadness, having pet insurance is helping me give her the best care possible till she does have to leave us. The initial claim with PetsBest takes a little while to process but then everything is super quick. I get reimbursed straight into my account within days of submitting. This is a huge help.

Terrific and Timely....

So, I have had pets for 40 years. No insurance. Now,with a new puppy and young cat, I got insurance --- accident/emergency for cat and wellness and accident/emergency for puppy. Well, we had a wellness check and they reimbursed a goodly portion of the bill and quickly. Amazing. Remarkable.

They exceeded my expectations.

I had my 2 cats insured for several years without a need to file claims, suddenly last year they both developed serious age related health problems. I came close to losing my male cat. If not for good insurance coverage which made his treatment affordable I am sure we would have had a different outcome. Both kitties currently doing well and thriving. I am so glad I found Pets Best several years ago and had it in place shen we truly needed it. The app is so easy to use and the claims are processed promptly. The payment is directly deposited in my checking account. I couldn’t ask for anything easier.
