Smooth and painless

Smooth and painless I keep expecting there to be a catch, but the submission process is remarkably simple and they have approved everything other than a few items that I fully agree with. I'm accustomed to insurance denying things randomly, so I'm always nervous when submitting and reviewing the results, but so far Pets Best has accepted everything I feel they should.

THE WORST! - Pets Best

Unacceptably poor customer/claims service. Extremely slow processing - close to a month. And, I'm still waiting for my direct deposit - over 1 week! Multiple phone calls - on hold for 30+ min and haphazard email response with no information of value. Will be contacting the BBB and cancelling my policy.

The peace of mind …

The peace of mind I have using Pets Best for my pup has been comforting beyond words. It allows me to take the extra care that is needed. My pup had a tumor that had to be removed and coverage was great.

Pet on Hospice Care

I have a pet on hospice care. Pets Best lets me worry about her care and not about the cost. I upload my receipts and the claims process is painless. I will not ever have a pet without insurance and Pets Best has been a great choice for my family.
