In 1981, Pets Best founder, Jack Stephens, DVM, had to euthanize a dog because its owner could not afford necessary treatment. Soon after that, Stephens made it his mission to stop economic euthanasia for pets by founding the first U.S. pet insurance company.

In 2005, Stephens formed Pets Best with the help of Greg McDonald, one of the founders of General Fire and Casualty. The purpose remains to stop people from having to euthanize pets because just because they can not afford treatments, and the company is a member of the North American Pet Health Insurance Association (NAPHIA).
