Love our pet insurance! Makes the difference in being able to afford her recent emergency care!

Nationwide has been excellent to deal with on claims for our pooch. From basic wellness to a recent emergency situation they processed quickly. When I called to discuss claims the first thing they asked was how is she doing now? Hoping she was better, customer service made me feel like she was not just a claim number for them. I absolutely recommend and will use them for any new pet in our future. It’s a comfort to know that we can care for our girl the way she deserves as part of our family!

So glad I made the decision to go with Nationwide (VPI) to insure my cat.

Great coverage... it does take a while for the claim to get processed though. But I am just happy there is such a thing as pet insurance. I never had it with my last cat, and wish I had known about it then.

Great turn around on claims

Nationwide has been great on the turn around on claims submitted. My dog has gotten ill twice in the last couple months and they were awesome in getting the claim approved and reimbursed me.

The service is excellent, easy to file claims via fax.

We are very pleased with Nationwide and glad we have pet insurance. The best part, it covers wellness as well.

Nationwide has my dog's back (and the rest of her too!)

Nationwide was the best decision I made when I got my dog. I knew there was always a chance something could happen to my dog that would be very costly. I never want to be in the position to have to make a choice on my dog's health based on my bank account. Nationwide has given me the peace of mind in the care of my dog. As (bad) luck would have it, my dog needed costly knee surgery after 1 1/2 years of owning her (she is now 3).. Nationwide made the process stress-free (money-wise) and I got the reimbursement very quickly. Thank you Nationwide!
