Great peace of mind for covering major unexpected health care costs for your pet.
Adopted our cat 2-years ago and after checking out various pet major medical insurance policies, we selected Nationwide Pet Insurance. They are very easy and convenient to deal with along with a good user interface for online and mobile app. Last month our cat had required some dental surgery which is not inexpensive however, Nationwide Major Medical was right there to support us. We filed the claim electronically the day after the surgery and quite happily surprised a week later we received our reimbursement without any hassle...Thank you Nationwide! Happy to report that our cat is doing fine now and glad we had the pet insurance!

Great and caring claim service
This is my 3rd year with the policy for Whiplash and my other boy Concussion. I have been so pleased with the coverages, fair premium, and claim service. I often recommend your pet insurance to my friends, family and coworkers. I am a 31 year Insurance Claims employee with another carrier so I understand the challeges and rewards of what you all do. My company has recently started piloting pet coverage but cannot compete with your premiums at this time. The piece of mind your product offers is so appreciated and your customer service is consistently top notch.

Claims are so easy now from my mobile phone
This is the first year we have added the wellness coverage, and it is very helpful with the costs to keep our dog Scout healthy. Recently we needed a sick visit again, and the coverage has paid off for us . I started using Vitus Vet App for claims through my phone, easy and faster claim service. Thanks
