Highly recommended pet insurance

i submitted various claims for Chloe from regular visits to teeth cleaning to her final days when I had to sadly put her down at 14 1/2. Petsbest responded to each claim in a timely manner. The coverage was excellent as well as the service. The employees were a pleasure to work with.

Not one othe best

I thought this insurance was the best but I am not very happy, every time you submit a claim they apply your deductible, has a max cap if you pet bill is more than 2500 that it is they wont pay any more, every instance is they apply the deductible. I found other insurances that don't have a max and are very fax and don't a apply the deductible for every instance. If you dog is old and have this insurance better check this out before you submit a claim

Very Happy with Pets Best Pet Insurance

So far we've only used the insurance for two well visits, cat & dog, but we are very happy with the reimbursement of services as well as the ease of filing the claims. The process is quick & easy. We're also very happy with the ease of customer service. The attentiveness and competence of the representative, Jennifer, was such a pleasure. Seems like good customer service is a rare quality these days. She went out of her way to take care of our situation, and we appreciate it!
