So Glad I Had It!

My dear dog of almost nine years just passed and thankfully we had this insurance in place to take some of the distress out of the entire situation. She had to have a series of expensive tests and surgery and not that we wouldn't have done it anyway, but knowing we would have some reimbursement really helped. The claims process was so simple and had I had my correct bank routing number on file, I would've received the money within 2 days of making the claim. Even so, the checks arrived promptly. If only all insurance companies were so reliable! Thank you, it was worth having Pets Best for all those years.

Thanks for providing the best!

I wanted to thank Pets Best for all the help with our claims for Kato. I never thought one of my boys would become this ill. With all the stress and worry, it's nice to know filing claims has been so easy and reimbursements have come quickly. Our boy would have had to be put down if it hadn't been for the financial help that having great pet insurance (Pets Best) has provided.
