Huge Premium Increase
Beware! The application process is easy and the claim filing process is easy. For the first 2 years the policy premiums were reasonable. But I just got my renewal for the upcoming year. Shockingly, my annual premium increased 55%!
When I called to inquire, the representative was very nice BUT couldn't really give me a reason for such a huge increase. She said it was based on my zip code, my dog breed and she stated that the cost of claims were increasing. This puzzled me as they knew my zip code and dog breed when they issued the policy. Additionally, my deductible is $500 and I barely met that this year.
When I inquired further she said that some zip codes only had their premiums increase by under 20%. What the heck??
When I asked for historical information as to what past premium increases had been, she couldn't answer the question. Now that's rich. A 55% premium increase. That truly makes the policy almost unsustainable.
I feel duped by getting a policy with them! i feel like I was lured in and that they knew all along they were going to push a HUGE premium increase on me at a later date. My only advise to potential customers is BEWARE!! I encourage potential customers to shop around....

Healthy Paws is the only pet insurance I trust to protect my dogs!
I cannot exclaim my praise for Healthy Paws loud enough! I have been a Healthy Paws customer for years and have had zero problems. I use their direct deposit option for reimbursement and have always received the money faster than they promise.
My healthy Paws policy has really paid for itself since my dog got diagnosed with cancer. They have paid every claim keeping him as healthy as possible for as long as possible and the only questions they ask is how Tyson is doing.
I have had the option to get different pet health insurance through my employer but Healthy Paws has always covered any need my pets have and I would not trust any other company to protect us the way Healthy Paws has.

wishing i could give 0 stars
We have never missed a payment--Placed a claim for a cruciate tear surgery and after weeks of diligently sending Pets best every article of history, payment history ect that they requested in a very timely manner they denied the claim stating it was a preexisting condition-- my dog suffered from necrotizing fascitis aka a septic joint and was NEVER diagnosed with a cruciate tear in that leg...This is definitely disappointing considering i've been with their partner Progressive for YEARS and never had a problem with their partner. I would definitely go with another company in the future.

Worst Pet Insurance Ever!
Pets Best is the worst insurance ever. They constantly deny legit claims. Their CS is terrible. They take for ever if there is a claim they have to pay. Do not EVER buy this insurance.

So quick and easy
This is the first time I got pet insurance for one of my animals. I did my research and settled on Healthy Paws. I am glad I had this in place. My dog got sick on a weekend and we had to go into an emergency vet. She ended up having to stay for 24 hours. The cost was very high and without insurance I am not sure what I would have done. I was able to submit everything and with in 4 days of her visit I received a reimbursement. It was so easy to send in a claim and it is nice to have that peace of mind that I can do everything possible for my pet and not let a financial burden determine a decision like that. I highly recommend Healthy Paws.

Healthy Paws Pet Insurance is the Best
I had the put in a claim for my dog, Princess Winnie. First of all, and I mean this sincerely, I never dealt with an insurance company, pet or human, who took care of my claim so quickly, I can honestly tell you the whole process, including receiving payment for my claim, took about a little over a week. I am not kidding. Also, I received an email asking how Princess Winnie was doing. After I sent the email, I got a response from Healthy Paws again. I am so impressed with this company. I cannot believe how great the service was. Thanks.

Best Pet Insurance Available
I signed up in 2011 with Healthy Paws for a new pup I got from a rescue. My beloved schnauzer fell seriously ill in Dec 2023, and was hospitalized for over 3 weeks in the vet ICU. The bill was a staggering $22k, and Healthy Paws covered most of it. They are compassionate and fast, and while I lost my dog on Christmas Day, I was able to give him the best care because I had Healthy Paws working with me. Five stars all around! My vets always told me that pet insurance never covers anything, but trust me, Healthy Paws is not like any other insurance. Thanks to them, my dog was given a fighting chance.
