I love Nationwide Pet Insurance
My late husband and I have carried Nationwide Pet Insurance, formerly VPI Pet Insurance, on our Yorkies since 1987, when after paying our first veterinarian bill, I laughingly asked why pets can't be insured like me for doctor visits and the Technician pointed me to the VPI Pet Insurance brochures. I once tried another insurer, but when our Yorkie at the time had to go into emergency care, the resulting bill out of pocket was $3000+, I went back to Nationwide. I now carry both Wellness and Illness coverage at a very good reimbursement rate. The monthly premium is justified considering my return on expenditure. The key is to SUBMIT CLAIMS for both Wellness visits, and for medical visit!

BEST insurance EVER! Worth every penny
My bluetick Ruby, has had a rough patch THIS last year and Nationwide has been INCREDIBLE! Quick payment and the ease of submitting a claim is awesome! We love the Vitus vet app. I'm so thankful UCHealth offers this as a benefit for their employees at a great rate! THANK YOU!!

Pet insurance is a must have!
We purchased pet insurance for our little girl soon after we adopted her (5 yrs. ago) and luckily have never had to file a claim until recently. Since it was our first, I spoke with an agent who walked me through the online process and it was an ease. After filing, I rec’d a confirmation and was able to track progress online. Within a couple of weeks I rec’d my check and it covered 75% of the bill! Insurance is one of those funny things in life. You forget it about it until you need it and when you do, you hope that it’ll work for you and in this case it did for us. I’m thankful for Nationwide and glad I had the foresight to purchase it years ago.
