Paid for a hip replacement! SO Amazing.

My shitzu has had a few illiness as of late and the insurance has been a blessing. When my Giant Schnauzer had a hip replacement, having the insurance made it possible to secure the best medical surgery. Worth it, if you're on the fence about pet insurance. Thank you Pets Best!

Better than human health insurance

My dog was stung by a bee last summer. Of course it was a weekend and the normal vets office was closed. He had a severe reacation and landed in in the animal ER. It was an expensive visit for us. I submitted the claim to Pets Best and within a very short time the reimbursement was in our account. When on a tight budget, you can not imagine how much it meant to my family to have such a fast turn around on a claim. I tell everyone that my pets have better health insurance than I do!!!!!!!!!

Simply AMAZING. Paid for seizure treatments!!

PetsBest has been AMAZING!! The continue to exceed my expectations. I have four dogs and PetsBest insures them all. I hear horror stories about from some of my friends that use different companies. PetsBest continues to exceed my expectations--I don't know what I'd do without them paying for my baby's recent seizures. I don't know why anyone would go anywhere else :-)
