Best Pet Insurance Carrier out there!

Nationwide has been excellent for payments and has been very fair. I will continue to use them for Lacie, my miniature schnauzer, and future furry family members! Turnaround time could be a little faster as I typically wait 3-4 weeks for reimbursement to be received.

Great customer service, quick reimbursement and very helpful!

I have a very needy dog. NPI has always been so helpful! Their customer service is kind and supportive. They are quick to check and return claims, and they always listen to my questions and concerns! I have and will continue to recommend them to all pet owners!

I received reimbursement in a timely manner.

I’m satisfied with the coverage and knowing that Nationwide is there for the upkeep of my dog’s health as well as for any emergencies.

You and your dog need this insurance

Hi there. It's our first dog as a family and I made sure we had her insured from the first day we received our puppy. When she was just over a year old, she got really sick with something she must have eaten. It's like with your child, you worry so much and you don't really think about the cost. The vet's here hit you hard with emergency treatment and I was a bit in shock. I wasn't sure if, what she had, was covered by my insurance but I didn't have time to research that, I just wanted her to get better. Luckily she got better quite fast with the treatment she received. A few days later I sat down and prepared for hours of online claim filing but I was surprised that I was done in less than 5 minutes. It took a bit long to get an answer regarding my claim. But when I finally got the letter and an email that she was covered for the entire amount minus our deductible, I was sooooo happy. Thank you Nationwide!!!
