Best Pet Insurance Around

Our dog has had a mysterious bladder infection which has led to multiple vet visits, tons of expensive medicine and many rounds of testing. The only easy thing about this experience was the support we got from Nationwide - easy filing system, and consistent financial support when we needed it most.

Nationwide is amazing!

Nationwide continues to exceed expectations. They even follow up after a claim to check in and see how your pet is doing. Filing a claim is easy. You file it through the app, take a few pictures of the receipts and visit, and then submit. You even get reimbursed direct deposit to your bank account. I’ve seen them reimburse a claim in as little as 2 weeks!

So happy that I have pet insurance!!

One of the very best things I have ever done was to get pet insurance for my Berner, Bodhi. We have just been down the rabbit hole and back with lab tests, procedures and medications, and without the insurance, it would have been a financial hardship as well as an emotional one. I appreciate Nationwide!

Excellent Pet Insurance Program

We have used Nationwide Pet Insurance (formerly VPI) for our kitties since 2004. We have been very pleased with their coverage plans, and the coverage has been extremely helpful over the years. The monthly payments are reasonable. You never know when you are going to “get into a cluster” with a pet - even when they are very young, sometimes, stuff happens. While you hope to not find yourself in that situation, it sure gives peace of mind to know you can say ‘yes’ to advanced treatment, and not have to pay all of it out of pocket - that help is there. I recommend this company all the time to those who ask - “do you have pet insurance?” Thank you!
