No one is faster than Pets Best

Our Chocolate Lab, Cosmo had a growth on eye lower right eye lid. We were nervous her having surgery. Our vet did an excellent job on the surgery and you can barely tell she even has stitches on her lower lid. Our vet's office offered to FAX our claim and proof of invoice paid to Pets Best Insurance. Within hours, I called to see if they got the paper work. I was treated very nicely, and Bryn even asked how Cosmo was doing. I am very satisfied with the coverage we have chosen years ago, and love the way the CSR's seem like family. I highly recommend PETS BEST INSURANCE.

Direct Deposited $1,000's in Claims Payments

I have two wonderful Havanese dogs with oxalate crystals. Pets Best staff have guided me in how to structure the best insurance plan given the chronicity of the dogs' conditions. Claims have been reviewed and managed in a timely fashion with payments deposited in my bank account electronically. Staff have been not only knowledgeable but also very caring. As a retired individual, I appreciate the respect they have always shown me when I call.

They Pay Huge Claims!

I made a claim for a TPLO surgery on my Neapolitan Mastif, Atticus, which I knew should be covered. However, I was not completely relieved until I knew the claim was approved and payment was made. The claim was processed extremely timely as advertised and payment made the same. I couldn't be more relieved or satisfied. Thanks Pets Best; truly the best!

Pets Best is an absolute must for any pet owner!

I have 2 dogs and a cat, my son has 2 Dogs. All are insured by Pets Best. Years ago I had a very prominent vet surgeon recommend Pets Best, he told me its the only insurance company that truly gives good coverage for pets. My dog ( and best friend), Grisham has had various medical issues and having this insurance has saved his life. For this, I am eternally grateful to your company. I am an RN working in hospitals for 25 + years and wish that people could have the quality health insurance that your company provides! Thank you for everything.
