Great service

I adopted my Meow in March from a private party who said she was in great shape other than needing one updated shot. I immediately set her up with a veterinary clinic and purchased a Met Life insurance policy. After giving her a few weeks to adjust to her new home I took her in for a complete examination and was told she was healthy but needed her teeth cleaned and a couple extractions. When they sedated her for the teeth cleaning and extractions they discovered she had resorptive dental lesions throughout her mouth, a very painful condition, and would need to have a full mouth tooth extraction which must be done by a dental specialist. Now that she is no longer in pain she acts like a kitten even though she is 6 years old. The total for everything came to over $6,000 dollars and Met Life covered 80% after the small deductible. The claim was handled promptly and the Met Life employees were courteous and very helpful. I’m so thankful l have Met Life coverage for my Meow.

Pet's Best Doesn't Care about your Pet. They are f'n vultures

So yesterday I accidentally cancelled my pet's insurance because my brother was moving out and hoping to take our family dog with him. My brother didn't realize until he was walking our dog that the development he just moved into had a small dog only policy (under 10lbs) and that there was no way he can take our dog with him. Today (less than 24 hours later) I called back Pet's Best to tell them the dog was staying with me and they said they couldn't change the cancellation I put through and if I wanted to get a new policy they get me one but any issues she had before would be considered pre-existing conditions and they would no longer cover it. After expressing how upset I was with their answer all the customer service rep could say was "Well that is your fault you cancelled". If your pet is like a child to you as it is to me this proves they don't care about you or your child so they can go f*ck themselves.

Wonderful customer service experience!

I just want to give a big shout out to Tyler at Pets Pluse Us. He was very helpful in educating and explaining a handful of things we were uncertain about. He gave us peace of mind that we have our Labby girl all taken care of when it comes to her insurance! Thanks again Tyler!

So far, so good

My furbaby is only 2 years old with no pre-existing conditions. He hasn't had multiple problems so I haven't had to submit many claims, but, for the most part I've had no issues getting reimbursed and the turnaround time was decent.

Claims take forever then always denied

I purchased Pets Best most comprehensive plan after adopting a new dog, and now, five months later, I just canceled it. Don't bother with this company. Keep looking. In those five months, I filed two claims. Both claims two about 6 weeks to process and then they denied everything as "pre-existing conditions", including things like a vet appointment and antibiotics for an open wound that occurred two months after the policy started. Luckily, those were fairly small bills, but I can’t imagine how angry I would be if it was something more serious and more expensive. Based on my experience with them, I imagine that would involve some financial struggle while waiting for reimbursement on two month old claims followed by fighting for even longer to get the eventual denials reviewed.

WARNING - please don't go with PHI!!

I am devastated at my poorly made decision to switch to PHI Direct. I did not fully understand their policy (my own fault), and that decision has for sure shortened the life of my dog. Once they have a condition that needs to have a claim, they will only cover that until the next time the policy renews. If you have a breed that is likely to have an ongoing issue (such as a heart condition), sorry about your luck, they'll only cover it for the remainder of that policy year (if they cover it at all), then they consider it a "pre-existing condition". Crappy customer service, long wait times, no invoice. Just awful! Please please please understand this policy clearly before you consider signing up. The cheaper premiums are that cheap for a reason, and not worth losing your pet early because you suddenly can't afford to keep treating their condition. What is the point of having insurance if they stop covering you once you have a problem? Please take this warning and avoid this company if you want long term coverage.

Healthy Paws is excellent insurance

Healthy paws is excellent Insurance. My five month old puppy had an accident in our pool and two weeks later had another problem with an obstructed intestine needing surgery. Healthy paws was there for both incidents without question and handled the claim quickly and completely. As long as I have a pet, I will always have Healthy Paws insurance. Thank you Healthy Paws!

Read the fine lines, especially with breed exclusions!!

Our accident only ins plan covered basically everything BUT a 'cruciate ligament tear' which is basically the same as a torn ACL in humans. So b/c Beagles are more prone based on their stature, weight issues, etc etc blah blah blah... we had to pay out $4800/knee?!?!?!? I signed up for ins immediately after taking ownership of our pup & NEVER missed a darn monthly pymt EVERRR!! Typical insurance game... you need or responsible with taking out a policy for the "what-ifs" & then when those do happen in life there's ALWAYS some reason or excuse as to why you're NOT covered🙄 Ridiculous!

Highly recommend Healthy Paws!

I have been using Healthy Paws pet insurance for over 2 years(for my 2.5 year old cat), and I highly recommend it as a pet parent. Every claim I've submitted (around five in total) has been processed and approved , usually within a few days. The total claims amount to over $16,000, covering various events including surgery, ER visits, and other unexpected incidents. What initially drew me to Healthy Paws was the thorough research conducted by my workplace's pet parent community. They evaluated almost every pet insurance company out there, and Healthy Paws came out at the top in all aspects. Unfortunately, many providers have a high rate of declined claims. Healthy Paws stood out with the lowest number of declined claims among all the companies reviewed.
