So grateful for the support and peace of mind

We woke up late one Saturday morning and were shocked that Lukas hadn't been awake at his normal time begging for breakfast. We didn't think much of it until he wouldn't get out of bed to eat. And then, when we could get him up, he wouldn't put weight on his back left leg. Off to the vet we went. Once we got the diagnosis and treatment plan, I put the claim through to Nationwide. I received the EOB and payment before Lukas was done healing! That's amazing! So grateful for the coverage, for the ease of use and the support of the claim. Thank you! You took a level of worry off this of this anxious pet parent. And Lukas is back to 100% - and hungry! Thank you!

Easy to use and very responsive.

I started with this company many years ago when it was Veterinary Pet Insurance, and since Nationwide took over they have not missed a beat. The coverage and pricing are similar but the communication and service are better. Thanks!

Anyone who has a pet, should have this insurance

I am so glad that I took this out, when my dog was a puppy! I have never had a claim denied.
