My eperience has been exceptional.! Great very professional staff and service.
Have been a client since 2001 when adopted 2 Persian cats and joined the insurance my experience was always at the highest level of service. Three years ago adopted a rescue cat and had some minor health problems that the insurance had been so very helpful, by email and phone. I could not say enough of the good service and the way I had been treated. You guys are amazing! Happy Thanksgiving and best Holidays ever.

Remarkably quick payment on claims!
Nationwide's Pet Insurance has been a tremendous asset for our family. We have had multiple opportunities to activate the policy and Nationwide has been quick to pay on each approved claim. Well worth every dollar spent on the premium and I encourage all pet owners to buy the insurance.

Very reliable
Nationwide pet insurance is offered through my employer. This is my first year having it and it's paid for itself! Super easy to submit claims and the reimbursement process is great! I have the Accidental and wellness plan and it’s well worth it!

Unlike most mediical insurance for human beings, Nationwide Pet Insurance is easy, personable, and quick.
Whenever a call Nationwide Pet Insurance with a question, the service I get is amazing. The tone of costumer service representative is friendly, professional, and kind. Making a claim is easy. I make my claims "old school" via mail. I also heard that you can now make claims via your phone or computer. Honestly, in less than a month I received an explanation of reimbursement and received a check. Nationwide is realistic in determining a claim and almost 100% of the time my claims were approved. I wish insurance for human beings was as easy and friendly. It would be nice to have an insurance card and have the veterinarian submit on your behalf - having the insurance holder submit is a bit of a pain, but not bad at all because the service is so fast. I was a customer when Nationwide took over VIP (seven years) and I would highly recommend this pet insurance.
