This IS the BEST pet insurance.

My dog was very ill and needed to be seen by the vet. There was lab testing and x-rays. Then all the medications. I spent over $500.00. I turned in my claim the day of the visit. Ten days later the reimbursement was back in my checking account. Pets Best is the easiest and fastest pet insurance I have used. I have had several dogs and used "other" pet insurance. I recommend this to all my friends and family.

Well Done!

I've had Pets Best for a number of years now and unfortunately have had to use it a number of times. Every time, Pets Best has reached a timely and fair resolution. It gives me great peace of mind knowing that as Micah gets older, I don't have to agonize over getting him appropriate treatment when he needs it!

So very issue to submit claims. I've not experienced one disappointment in what is covered. If only human insurance was as fair and easy to deal with!!
