Not happy with the increase of premuims

My dog just turned 5 and I have had your insurance from the beginning.It has increased so much that I have had to drop my second dog to be able to afford it. In three years my payments have gone from $45 to $56 and this year it would be $70 for one pet. And that was going with a higher deductible. I have stayed with your insurance because of a "pre-existing" condition, but I can no longer afford to do this.

PETS BEST IS SIMPLY THE BEST

I've had my 2.5 year old pit bull insured with Pets Best since we got her as a baby. She was a healthy pup, but has allergies! Pets Best has paid all our claims quickly and fairly. I highly recommend PETS BEST.

Friendly, Fast and Exceptional Service

Our baby has a variety of medical issues (Diabetes, Pancreatitis to name a few)and Pets Best has helped me every step of the way. This past claim was for routine check up and heart worm testing but most of our claims are for more extensive trips to the vet. I submit by mail and within a few days I am notified by e-mail of the status of my claim and I then receive a check shortly after that in the mail. I appreciate that I can talk directly to customer service when I call and not an automated system. Love you guys!!
