I'm so glad I had this pet insurance!

I’m so glad I had pet insurance when I had to take my very sick dog into the emergency vet. When they gave me a quote on the cost, it was one less thing for me to worry about. I can’t imagine what it would have been like if I had to choose what to do for him based on cost. I made the claim and was reimbursed within days. Thank you!

Excellent coverage, but a bit expensive.

I’m very happy with the pet insurance coverage, although it is a bit too expensive.

Nationwide is there for me AND my animals.

I have been with VPI and then Nationwide for over 20 years. I have had more than 10 animals covered and I have found that having this insurance gives me peace of mind and insures the animals are seen on a regular basis, thus remaining more healthy.
