They covered a thing or too as they seen a thing or too!

I have 2 pets on Pets Best, one thankfully no claim, however, the rescue that came to me 2 months ago had an obstruction in July with a 2-day hospital, ALL COVERED minus the deductible! When people ask me if Pet insurance is worth is...oh heck yes! Pets Best is great to work with and I highly recommend them, I have another insurance but the cap is 5K for the year, with Pets Best it's unlimited! Big Thank you to Pets Best Insurance!

WOW!

WOW! I am impressed! I submitted my first claim over the holiday week and figured it would take a while to process due to it being the holiday and being the first claim that I have submitted for. It took only a week for them to retrieve the medical history and process the claim! This is awesome, I appreciate this so much because this is the last thing I needed to worry about due to an accident. Thank you, Thank you PetsBest!
