I Couldn't Do It Without Nationwide!

I have always been thankful for Nationwide, formerly VPI, Pet Insurance. I've had dogs with auto immune diseases, allergies, and battling with CCL tears with the current one. If it wasn't for Nationwide, I don't know how I would have managed without them. Customer service is always super friendly and extremely helpful. Submitting claims could not be any easier, and turn around time is fabulous. Thanks for everything Nationwide!

Simple and Easy

Working with Nationwide has been a simple and easy process. They respond via email and traditional mail to confirm receipt of a claim and provide a rationale as to why or how much of a claim has been covered. I am never left wondering where the claim is, what was approved and why it was or was not approved.

Quicker than I thought

I've had my policy for almost a year and have submitted claims on an infrequent basis. Until last month none of them have qualified for reimbursement (luckily, I guess). I filed the claim, signed up for automatic reimbursement and was surprised at how quickly the deposit came through. Thank you.

Monthly Cost

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.
