Absolutely wonderful!

I needed help with my Shih Tzu who had bladder crystals and a UTI. My claim was handled so well. I wasn't sure how easy it would be to submit the information, etc. - but everything was so simple! Thank you for great service!

I highly recommend Pest best. They are the best!

My maltese Giovannni is only a year and half old. He came down with Gastrointestinal Issues and had to be hospitalized. I had never submitted a claim for illness and was a little nervous. I called the insurance co when he was in the hospital and explained my situation. The woman was very nice and looked up my policy and told me I should not have any issues with getting my claim paid from what I had told her. She advised me to call my Vet and the hospital to get the last 12 months of records on my Giovanni including doctors notes. She said it would speed up the claim process when I submitted it. Well I submitted less than a week ago and my claim is already approved!! I could not be more pleased with them and I could not have picked a better insurance co!!!

I signed up for Pets Best insurance a few months ago and processed my first claim last month. It was so painless to file the claim online and I rec'd my reimbursement check in the mail in less than a week! Amazing. I highly recommend this service.

I've always said, it's better to have and not need than to need and not have, when it comes to insurance. Unfortunately, I needed it for my Labrador. Pets best came through without any hassle and in a super timely manner. Thank you for making the decision to care for my 'baby' an easy one.
