Always Recommending
I always recommend Nationwide Pet Insurance to everyone I know with a dog or cat. I've been with them since before they were nationwide (VPI) and now as Nationwide and they always are timely in filing claims and make it very easy to file a claim, update information, ask questions, etc. I definitely recommend them to everyone. Thank you Nationwide !

Making a claim was easy; the customer service is Stellar!
I am very grateful that I invested in pet insurance. My Mercedes became unexpectedly sick with congestive heart failure. Nationwide paid my claim--even when I was referred to a second vet who required me to pay the same exam fee that I had just paid, again. Without this insurance, I could not have afforded the care my kitty needed and she would have died--probably by asphyxiation as I wouldn't have been able to stop the fluid from entering filling her lungs. I have made it a point to let both friends and family know how wonderful this insurance is. Peace of mind is wonderful.
