UTI covered
Pets Best covered most of the charge I received from my dog's UTI. It was made easy by scanning and sending. Direct deposit also makes it easy to receive payment.

Can't Imagine Going Without
I took my cat to the vet because she was throwing up daily. Never did I imagine the diagnosis would be cancer, and she'd be gone less than 3 weeks later. Thankfully she had the feline illness plan from Pets Best and I was able to get her the best care and explore all our treatment options without worrying about running up a huge credit card bill. When she passed, private cremation was even covered, and that meant a lot to me.

This IS the BEST pet insurance.
I have had other pet insurance, but will now only use Pets Best. Our dog has allergies and we see specialists along with our regular vet. There has never been an issue with the number of visits. Payment is easy at 90% for our policy. None of the reasonable and customary stuff. Filing a claim is so fast and easy. I use the on line service. Payment is also fast and easy. I have told all my pet owner friends about Pets Best. When your pet is ill your do not want to worry about what is covered, filing a claim and when will you be paid. The representatives I have spoken with are so knowledgeable and understanding.

best insurance, hands down
I make my living analyzing and marketing health insurance options for my clients. When choosing pet insurance years ago, I applied the same analytical approach to the insurance options available to me at that time which included cost, actual value of coverage and plan design as well as claim filing processes and customer service. Pets Best won hands down. We have tried other insurance as we have added dogs to our family over the years, but end up canceling them inevitably to put them on our pets best policy. PetsBest continues to be the best value insurance coverage for our pets. I am 6 year customer and among all my dogs have eslasily filed over 40 claims in that time; all without issue.
