Having this service has been an amazing benefit to me and my fur baby!

I'm just so pleased with the Pet Insurance and how smooth the process has gone for me over the past year. I'm always cautious dealing with insurance companies, but Nationwide is the REAL DEAL! My claims were processed in a timely manner, and I was able to read the benefit statement clearly. I've even interacted with customer service and received the clarity I needed around my questions and concerns.

Always very profession al and willing to take the time to explain the benefits.

We started with VPI Insurance which was bought out by Nationwide. We have insured two dogs through the years. We have always found them to be very professional and willing to take the time to explain the benefits. the communication is good and payments are generally received in a timely manner.

Easy claim submission, quick review, direct deposit reimbursement - I wish my health insurance was this good!

Buying Nationwide Pet insurance is one of the smartest pet related decisions I've made. I have found the claims process very easy and convenient and the reimbursement quite fair according to the contract. Even though my dog is generally very healthy occassionaly medical needs arise, and we also have the wellness insurance which covers routine things like feel and tick protection.

I am so happy to have this insurance coverage for my dog.

I had hesitated to get insurance for my dog - I had heard mixed things about pet insurance. I finally decided to take the plunge and I am so happy i did it. It allows me to make the right decisions around my pet's health without worry. Nationwide is great. They make submitting a claim super easy and they are very responsive.
