I was told to never get pet insurance

I was told to never get pet insurance, that it wasn't worth it. So glad I didn't listen and got Pet's Best. I never wanted to have to use it, but now that I have, I am grateful for the quick responses and communication I have received. Very happy.

Quick service

I submitted my claim on 9/4/24 which was very easy to submit. My money was deposited into my checking account on 9/18/24. I also received emails when my claim was submitted and when it was processed. How was that for quick service!! I have 3 rescued Pit Bull's, and they are all insured at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend Pets Best Insurance.

The wait times on hold to speak to…

The wait times on hold to speak to someone are a little ridiculous, a suggestion would be a person to be able to be called back, waited 30 min, got someone they got disconnected on their end, waited another 30 min on hold, then I gave up!! This needs to be fixed

They closed my claim the first time…

They closed my claim the first time saying they didn't receive all of the documents without reaching back out to me. Then reopened it after I questioned it but didn't pay all of it. Will be shopping for new insurance.
