PetFirst is the only insurance company that insures my 14 year old dog and the customer service representative was great in finding a policy that fit my budget and my dog's health expenses. They process claims quickly and it's easy to upload documents. Id recommend PetFirst to anyone who wants to care for thier dog responsibly.

PetFirst Insurance has been an excellent insurance company at a difficult time for us and our cat Momoko. We have been subscribers for several years and had no reason to need the bernefits of pet health insurance.The adjusters were very helpful and helped us with our cats illness by providing service at a time when we needed it. Anyone we spoke with from Pet First has been kind,polite and helpful. When we had to file a claim they were helpful by walking us through it. Thanks Pet first!

Easy sign up process. The CSR, Brooke was very informative, answered all questions completely and was very pleasant. Highly recommend pet coverage for emergencies. This is a customizable plan that allows the consumer to decide exactly what type of coverage you need/can afford.

We had Pet First insurance for a little over year when we found out that our dog had to have cruciate ligament repair. The claim submission was easy and super fast. The reimbursement came as promised. I am so glad that we choose pet First Insurance.

Easy to use. No issues filing my claim. Hard to find a pet insurance company willing to reimburse 90%. I recommend them.

When I called, the responder was very helpful and guided me through each plan in full detail and clear words! He was very nice, polite, and tolerated my inexperience with insurance—related business!

This was the only insurance I found that had a rider to include routine care. It was easy to obtain a quote online. I didn't save my quote and received a follow up call. When I returned the call, it was easy to sign up and make my payment by phone.

Just called to activate 30 days free pet insurance. I expected a hard sell for a policy but was pleasantly surprised at how professional the representative was in explaining coverage. No pressure at all. I decided to go ahead and activate a family plan for my two new pets because the monthly premium was so reasonable and based on my past experiences as a pet owner I know I'll use the coverage!

The shelter where I adopted my two cats used this insurance and I kept using it after the trial period ended. Honestly, having pet insurance in the first place is really helpful in emergencies, which we've had, and this one in particular is very affordable for two large male cats. The only downside is that, at the time that I last needed to file a major claim, the pet hospital I went to didn't have this company on file, so they couldn't file the claim on my behalf. But I'm sure that will change in the future and I'm still satisfied with the service and expedience of this insurance company.

When we adopted our little "Sammy" from the shelter, there was an advertisement for Pet First Insurance included with his paperwork. We had never had anything like this for any of our pets but because "Sammy" was a shelter animal and 7 years old, we decided to look into it. We contacted them, liked what we found out and decided to get their insurance....to make a long story short, within 6 months, Sammy got very sick and when we got him to the vet he didn't know what was wrong and didn't know if they could save him.. he was lethargic, unable to stand and it scared us to death. The vet took him, tried several things over the 5 days he was there and whatever it was, the medicine and care he was given was enough to save his life. The bill was over $1,000.00 and when I submitted it to Pet First with the vet's paperwork, we received almost all of the money back that we had spent, less the low deductible...in a very short time, without any hassle what-so-ever. We highly recommend this company as without them, we would have had a very hard time absorbing the costs of Sammy's treatment that saved his life. Today we still have our Sammy and also Pet First Insurance. We would not be without the both of them!! Thank you Pet First.Sincerely, Nancy & Mike Warner

I recently called PetFirst Pet Insurance and inquired about certain coverage for my pet. I first spoke with Amanda. She was quick and easy to talk with. She then transferred me to talk with Chris about getting more coverage. Chris was honest with me about prices and since I have a senior pet, adding more coverage would have not been a good idea. They were careful with delivering that news and were very kind about it. Thank you for your help!

This was the first time I had to submit a claim for one of my dogs. As soon as I found out she would need surgery, I called to ask about coverage and the process. The representative I spoke with was so nice and helpful. He even took the time to email me the claim form. The process was very simple. I collected all the paperwork from her vet appointments as well as 12 months of vet records (this is the process when it is your first claim) and emailed everything on 3/23 and already got an email today 3/28 that everything was approved and the check was sent. Definitely an easy process!

My PetFirst insurance came in very handy when my cat got ringworm. They covered all vet visits, medication, etc. so it saved me a ton of money. Submitting the documentation was easy as I did it online via my customer portal, and when everything was processed I was notified by email. I was kind of worried that I wouldn't get reimbursed based on others' reviews but I had no problem. PetFirst was actually great and I was able to get in touch with them via online chat to check in on the status of my claim. It was easy and everyone I spoke to/ chatted with was very friendly and helpful. I think as long as you have a legitimate claim (accident or illness) and have your paperwork and documentation organized, you should be fine and get reimbursed like me.

The sales rep was amazing! He was polite, accommodating, no nonsense, straight to the point, easy to understand and included all pertinent information. Explained in detail the policy options, signed me up and read all legal statements; I was off the phone in 5 minutes. It's a small price to pay for piece of mind considering you never know when or what could happen to your pet!

Our dog, Jet, ate something she shouldn't have and ended up with a serious gastro-intestinal upset. She was listless, vomiting, and had diarrhea and was only getting worse as the day went on. We took her to the emergency vet since it was Easter Sunday. Jet stayed at the Vet for the next 24 plus hours getting antibiotics and intravenous hydration. The bill, as you can imagine, was over $1500. I submitted the claim to Pet First -- they reimbursed us at 90% less $100 deductible within two weeks. No hassle. No worries. Thanks Pet First!

I normally shy away from companies that don't allow me to change information online and that require me to call them. I got PetFirst for one month free with the adoption of my new kitten. To set it up, I had to call. My coverage ends soon so I had to call today to renew it - I couldn't do this online. However, each time I have called and spoke to someone (today it was Kyle), it has been painless and very easy. The people I've spoken to have been able to answer my questions well and in ways that are very easy to understand. Also, the pricing is great compared to other insurance companies I've looked into. Plus, I'm a CVT so I got a discount. :)

PetFirst Pet Insurance is amazing! I've had my dogs covered with them for several years and I'm so glad I do.

I just submitted a claimfor one of my dogs and the claim has already been processed, accepted and now our reimbursement check is on it's way. The people at PetFirst really care, and choosing them for my dogs pet insurance is the best thing I've ever done, and my dogs will continue to be covered with them. I highly recommend them!

I love PetFirst Insurance. I could not have made it all these years as a pet parent without the coverage. It has helped to ensure that my pet got the best possible care. The people that work for the company are wonderful and helpful. They really care!! Cannot say enough good things about this company. Pet owners need this. This is a great company. Better than any health insurance company that I have ever had!! Do yourself a favor. You will not regret gaving this coverage!! Renee

This is the first dog we have purchased pet insurance for and we are very happy we did. The first 30-day's was part of her adoption fee and we have been continued the services. Our dog is a bit of a trouble-maker and we now have the peace of mind that should she get injured or sick, PetFirst will help cover expenses. Our claims have been handled quickly and professionally each time. Customer service is always pleasant and helpful. We would recommend PetFirst Pet Insurance for anyone looking to insure a furry loved-one.

When I first signed up with Pet First insurance I was a little nervous. You just never know how these companies will treat you when it actually comes time to use the coverage. I'm happy to say, Pet First has handled everyone of my claims as I had hoped, and as stated in my policy. They also covered veterinarians doctors who were holistic practitioners and prescribed natural supplements, which was important to me.

We adopted our kitten from the local Humane Society. I am so glad we started PetFirst coverage and was surprised to discover we actually needed it. Though we had no major health concern; a few months after our kitten was home, she showed signs of allergies that were hard to pinpoint. This required several veterinarian visits and the expenses added up. We were pleasantly pleased that we have received two substantial checks in the mail from PetFirst. I am so glad I went with PetFirst and I highly recommend it. (These days, even minor health concerns can be expensive.)

They have been great at helping when I needed it for my fur baby. He had cancer and had to have surgery. Now if any cancer comes back he is going to be taken care of by the insurance. Great piece of mind when you are heartbroken and worried about your furry love.

For some reason l could not get my claim to go thru with email. I called to see if there was a computer problem. The young lady that answered the phone told me to go ahead and email it to her and she would take it over to the claims department. Excellent customer service. I got my check last week. Very pleased with PetFirst, their coverage and their filing application.

We had just picked our little girl Sally from the shelter. 4 days later she was very ill. In fact, we did not think she would make it. Lots of love and two trips to the vet and she is starting to live again and doing well! The vet bills were daunting but PetFirst stepped up and paid the claims promptly! Thank you!

If it wasn't for the insurance I have for our Fur Baby Munchkin who is a (Gray Tabby) I don't think he would be here with us I've never had such a horrific scare. Our Munchkin caught a parasite that he had for a while it got so bad that it started affecting his blood luckily the Pet ER we took him to where so amazing they took care of him soooo quickly he had to stay overnight so they can monitor his progress he was on IV fluids, and different antibiotics to get him better but I am so Thankful and Grateful that his insurance covered this😔 like I said I don't know what state I would have been without My Fur Baby. Thank You Again Pet First Insurance

Probably the only insurance company I have ever had consistently good service from and interaction with. I had 1 policy with them on a new cat I adopted and everything went so well with claims that I got policies for my 2 other animals. Definitely worth the monthly payment!

I had 30 free days of insurance with PetFirst when I adopted my dog Maggie. I had to take her in with an emergency after two weeks, and I was so thankful I was covered by PetFirst. Their claims process was incredibly easy, and I got reimbursed in about a week. If you're looking for a user-friendly website and claim process, give PetFirst a chance!

Very informative and easy to work with. Got a free month from my state’s humane society. Very good way to introduce insurance for your pet. I’ve owned several rescued pets. This is my first time to carry insurance. I see where it will be cost effective for me with three dogs.

R Boyd

I love this company! My English Bulldog Oliver had 2 mast cell tumors removed this past year (2 different claims), and PetFirst reimbursed me for the majority of these bills! They are life saviors. For anyone even considering buying pet insurance it is definitely worth it! Especially for the peace of mind (veterinary bills can get extremely expensive fast). When I was in the 24 hour veterinary specialty clinic I met a man who’s 1 year old blood hound got hit by a car earlier in the week (his dog had 2 broken hips). His children were devastated. This poor man told me he didn’t have pet insurance either. I felt bad for him.

Ashley Camper

I am so grateful that pet insurance is available to cover our furry friends, and after tons of research and even trying out a few competitor's plans in the past, I have found PetFirst to be the absolute best. I no longer have to wait and worry about being able to take my pets to the vet when they are sick or hurt. If it is more than just an upset tummy or sore muscles from playing a little too hard, I know I can take them to their regular vet or emergency hospital and get them whatever they need.I chose the $50 deductible with 90% reimbursement so I don't have to worry about my part of the cost of the visit afterwards. I have a Zero interest credit card specifically designed for medical expenses (offered by most doctors and veterinarians) and it offers 6 mos-18 mos interest free if balance paid before promotion ends. I never have to worry about paying it off in time because with PetFirst it is usually less than 2 weeks to receive my reimbursement check.People may think they can't afford pet insurance, but I say how can I not? I have limited income and I still make sure to set aside for the insurance. Not being able to get medical care for my pets or having to possibly choose to euthanize them because a treatment is too costly isn't a decision I have to worry about. That peace of mind is worth giving up a couple of extras each month so that my fur babies are all protected.Also, having the lifetime plan is extra comfort, because if they ever develop anything chronic, they will always be covered for that in the future.Thanks PetFirst for allowing me to be able to always give my pets whatever care they need in case they get sick or hurt. I may give up cable or eating out, but I will never give up our pet insurance!

I have had dogs all my life and have stupidly never gotten pet insurance... ( my bad)... after losing our last dog in June, we rescued another dog and the rescue group took out a 30 day policy on our new furkid. Free for us. After talking with Pet First, I ended up just taking a policy out after the 30 days were up and oh boy am I glad we did. We had issues with his stomach and I sent all the paper work in and viola! A check within 3 weeks! Just fantastic! I highly recommend this company!

Great company to work with. They are truly there to help you in any way that they can. I have a Tibetan mastiff puppy who has had some major issues as he has grown up and I’m not sure what I would have done without petfirst! Their claims process is quick and easy! Receiving a check is usually within days of your claim being approved. You can upload every document right through their website, or email any forms directly to them. I don’t have time for the back and forth nonsense which you would typically expect from any type of insurance company...but that is truly not the case here. Thank you!

Excellent Insurance! Extremely helpful and caring Customer Service! I have carried insurance on my Pets for Several Years, hoping I don’t need it. I really have been Pleased with this Company. They really came through recently when my Dog had an Ear Cancer. They helped pay for almost 5,000. Dollars in Surgery and Medication. I did not have to stress about how I was going to pay for his Treatment. They have Customer Service Individuals you become familiar with and that is also reassuring. I am extremely Satsified with how this Company handled all of my questions.

When we adopted our little girl Sunny from the SPCA they were kind enough to give us an immediate free trial of this pet insurance. We called up first thing Monday morning and activated. (They do have limited weekend hours available too). The operator who helped us sign up was extremely friendly and informative. I was comforted knowing our new little family member was covered almost immediately should anything arise. That same week we took Sunny into the emergency vet because we thought she was having some breathing problems. $500 dollars later they sent us home with some Benadryl and a clean bill of health. I submitted my claim to PetsFirst within that same week. The process was easily outlined of what was required and had an easy upload option for the docs they required. The site stated the process could take up to 10 business days and I got a reply on day 7! To add to my excitement they were able to reimburse me almost all that I'd paid at the emergency vet. I will be sticking with PetFirst as my go to for my pet insurance needs. They really came through for us. A+ experience!

I AM SO IMPRESSED WITH PETFIRST. Really this was the first time I have ever had a puppy or insurance, and I see why its so needed. Honestly, I never thought i would use it, but after my puppy became sick, really sick, the vet bills piled up. We had to take her to an emergency vet, and get tons of iv fluids and on and on. Then 3000 dollars later and PetFirst has taken care of EVERYTHING. But the deductible. It saved us so much money and so many headaches. BUY THIS for your animal. You won't regret it.

I've had my rescue dog for a year now. Poor little guy has had chronic diarrhea starting just a couple of weeks from when we adopted him. Luckily, we got a free trial of PetFirst insurance that we now gladly pay for. They have been great in paying without questions or hassles for all of the tests and treatment. Easier than most human health insurance.

Bruce Hirsch

16:57 09 Mar 18

their prices are really good and I would recommend this insurance. I never had a problem with them and I have gotten payment back from them fast. They have answered all of my questions. I have saved a lot of money with them being the first time to use this sort of insurance. I wouldn't go without now.

Mary Jacob

I've had PetFirst Insurance for about a year now and it's been a real life-saver. It has the best coverage of any pet insurance plan I've heard of. We had an $800 emergency vet bill for my 2-year old lab mix (we thought she had an obstruction) and they reimbursed about $700 of it. The vet thought surgery might have been needed for a little while and I was really happy to have the insurance because PetFirst would've covered the majority of it. Their claim turnaround is pretty fast, I was able to get the reimbursement within a couple weeks and claims are really easy to file. Having PetFirst allows me to focus on my dog and her needs in an emergency without having to worry about the costs of treating her.

Annelise Denton

19:44 20 Feb 18

We just had a to file a claim for our dog. The claim form was very easy for our vet to follow. Had our reimbursement within two weeks. It was very easy. I recommend pet first insurance to all my friends with pets. Cindy

Have had pets for the last 15 years and decided just last year to purchase a health insurance plan for my 2 dogs. I wasn't sure how this was going to work out and not sure if it was worth it. Well, found out it was totally worth it after my 7 year old greyhound was diagnosed with hemolitic anemia. We had lost another dog to this dreaded disease over 5 years ago and I was devastated. This time, we did catch it early and were able to treat it aggressively. Thank goodness, she survived and is back to her happy self. I gathered up all my bills and lab work and sent in my first claim to PetFirst pet insurance. Just received our reimbursement check in the mail yesterday. They paid a good portion of a very large bill and it made doing the right thing for our beloved pet that much easier. Plus it was an easy process too. No hassles at all. I will continue with the plans for both my dogs as long as they are with us! Highly recommend this insurance to any pet parent looking for peace of mind.
