Pets Best | Pet Insurance Review

Our Vizsla was diagnosed with IMHA (blood disorder) @ 5+ yrs. old. He went downhill very fast so we took him to Iowa State Llloyd Vet. School. They were great. He wasn't responding to the 8 blood transfusions. After 3 weeks, his spleen was removed and he turned the corner...so we thought. Biopsies came back and it showed that he had cancer of the worst kind. This is the part to be wary of. Initially pets Best covered this as IMHA and in most cases, the dog would not have survived long enough to know that he had cancer. Instead, due to the great dedication (ours and Lloyd Vets) he survived to find he also had cancer. Even though I and the Doctors have sighted a dozen studies which show you can have cancer and not have IMHA, or vice versa (they are 2 separate and distinct diseases) they chose to lump them together and cover it as one. Kind of like saying the flat tire in your car caused your engine to quit working. It is due to this, I can not recommend them. I have had VPI early on when they were just about the only game in town years ago. We switched to Pets Best and were happy with them until a disastrous issue like ours came up. But that's why you have insurance...for the unexpected and they weren't there for us. Now, I will seek insurers who have no maximums such as Healthy Paws in Seattle.

When I found that lump under Spider's arm pit, I panicked. Thank goodness we had Pet's Best Insurance to help with his surgical costs. The tumor came back as cancerous, but it had been completely removed. Today, Spider is happy, healthy, and cancer free thanks to a good surgeon and Pet's Best Insurance.

I have had Pets Best for many years, and have been quite happy with the service.

I learned of PetsBest insurance several years ago thru my employer. I could not find a company to insure my 11 year old dog . PetsBest had no age limit. In the 3 years I had this insurance I only had about 4 claims - the last one being for the problem that led to the euthanization of my dog. PetsBest not only covered over 80% of a sizable claim -they refunded half of the premium payment I had made for the month in which my dog was euthanized. My experience with PetsBest has been outstanding - their claims process is extremely fast and efficient, they are a great company to deal with , and even sent a sympathy card on the passing of my dog. A great company !!!

Bagel contracted Lyme disease. We have to bring him to the vet a few times and drugstore for medication. I submitted the claim by fax with all the receipts in Mid May and it turns around in a week and direct deposit into my account. They are fast and simple. This is the best Pets Insurance.
