Good coverage and resource information

It gives us great peace of mind to know that we will be able to afford to address our Charlie’s medical issues. Especially as he gets older. However there does seem to be a long lag time between claim submission and claim payment.

Glad I have Nationwide for Gracie

I have Nationwide pet insurance for my dogs, mostly so I could cover anything catastrophic. Most years, I don't make any claims at all, but this year I had to submit a couple for Gracie. Nationwide was very prompt with its reimbursement. Thank you! It's great to have some peace of mind and know that I can do the best thing for my pups.

I'm glad I've signed up with Nationwide's pet insurance.

The only reason I haven't given a 10 is because it would be nice to know what step of the claim process a claim is in beyond accepted, processing and completed. I love that it's so easy to submit claims via the VitusVet app. It's quick and convenient. I've never had a reason to call customer support.

Best Pet Insurance

I submit a claim and it is usually paid within a couple of weeks. This insurance pays for health check ups, flea and tick meds, shots, dentals, and I am sure more. I can't believe I was so fortunate in discovering Nationwide Pet Insurance.
