This is a literal LIFESAVER

My Pug had to have emergency surgery to remove a blockage. It was life or death for him and without this policy we would not have been able to get the treatment to save our sweet boy. The reimbursement was complete and we received it very quickly (about a week). This saved his life and my finances. I'm so grateful to have had this policy!

The BEST Pet Insurance

I went with Nationwide for my puppy based off of what I read on an Internet search then making a phone call to speak with an agent. Best decision I made. The agent was so efficient and answered every question precisely and honestly, and trust me, I had A LOT of questions! Submitting a claim is the easiest thing I’ve ever done, especially using the VitusVet app!

I wish my health insurance was as easy!

My pup is a senior so I thought my rates would be unaffordable. I was wrong. Not only is filing a claim (online) easy, reimbursement is quick and deposited directly into my bank account. The ability to phone in and speak to a vet ahead of making a visit to the vet is extremely appreciated. Everyone I have spoken to at Nationwide has been kind and extremely helpful. I suggest Nationwide Insurance to all my friends and co-workers with pets! No regrets~ and when we adopted a kitten I promptly called Nationwide to have him covered as well!
