Pets Best Truly the Best!

I've been with Pets Best since my dog broke his foot at 5 months old and it was recommended I get coverage. Five years later I still have it and it's worth every penny. The coverage guidelines are very clear, the online process of claims is super fast, and the reimbursement is quick as well. I recommend them to every friend I have that has a pet!

Fast claims payment, every time.

I have been very impressed with Pets Best prompt processing and payment of our claims. We have insured two dogs with them and have had a very positive experience. We will definitely be using them again when we add another pet to our family. They've paid $1,000's in claims payments to us, and they came through especially when we were dealing with a torn ACL. Thanks Pets Best!!

Wonderful service

I switched from another pet insurance because Pets Best has better service. I'm completely happy with it. When I get a second dog, I will add her to this plan.

My Supplement was Covered!

I had a question about the new coverage for approved Supplements. Not only is the Supplement that my pet takes every day covered, but I was told I could submit a claim for my next Rx before my renewal date because it is so close. Love Pets Best!

Thank you!!

I am amazed to say the least on how wonderful this company is. The customer service dept is gracious & helpful, claims are handled promptly & payment made within a few days. I have tried a few different insurance companies in the past & they nit picked each line item. I paid more & got back much less. Wonderful company..Scarlet thanks you & so do I.
