Premiums are expensive

I think the company does a good job and pays without too much hassle but their premium increases this year seem steep so I'm cancelling. A 3 year old dog went from $278.03 to $332.47 a year and a 1 year old dog went from $473.31 to $409.34 a year. Both have $200 deductibles & 10% co-pay plans. I will save the $68.64 a month for an emergency.

Worst Service I Have Recieved

This is the worst experience I have had with a pet insurance company. I have had to deal with extremely rude customer service representatives and it took these people a month to resolve this. I called and spoke to ONE nice representative and she submitted my info to her supervisor.Their service was extremely poor and disappointing.

Pets Best is good

I have 2 cats on my plan and they have always been good with my claims. I have an old cat and she has to go to the vet for various things and they always pay on my claim efficiently. I would recommend them if you need coverage for your pets.

Thank you so much

Our golden retriever has metastatic cancer, but the chemotherapy is helping him live a fairly normal life until his time is up. Because of Pet's Best, we can keep him pain free and able to breath. He wasn't sick enough for us to just put him down, but with reimbursement for 80% of the treatment, we have peace of mind. We did not wait too long for the reimbursement and they were very fair.

$6 and up, depending on your chosen plan.

Coverage

Accident and Illness plans with optional reimbursement levels of 70%, 80%, or 90% after the deductible. Flat Rate Accident coverage for $9/month for dogs and $6/month for cats. (Available in most states). Two optional Wellness plans to cover routine care. 24/7 Pet Helpline, powered by whiskerDocs is included on all policies.
