We’ve been with this company for over 15 years and had our ups and downs, but predominantly UP!

To reiterate, after more than 15 years with this company, insuring multiple pets at a time, just having major insurance for unexpected and expensive illnesses, it is very comforting. Sometimes we have to do more correspondence than on other issues, but altogether, we feel “covered.”

We appreciate your support in giving Pico the best care.

I have always had a great experience with Nationwide and previously VPI. I was a little confused why I encounter some issues with my last 2 claims. Customer Care was able to help me sort things out though. Please keep up the great work. It is so comforting to know I can give my best friend by best care and not have to worry about costs.
