Thanks for all you help!

After 2 episodes of cancer over the last 3 years, Katie is doing great. At 11-1/2, she’s starting to show her age but can still swim nonstop for over an hour. I honestly don’t think she would have made it if I hadn’t had Nationwide Pet Insurance all these years. Nearly $10,000 later, Nationwide has been there to help every step of the way. Thank you!

Better coverage

I like having the coverage, I feel that it could cover better. I even purchased the wellness coverage. I got a nine week old puppy. You would think it would cover all the immunizations. I understand not the spay. I think you would process claims a little faster too. I never know where my claim is.

Amazing coverage for people with pets

This policy has been a life saver for me and my pets. I can go to the vet knowing I am covered and knowing I do not have to worry. This helps keep my budget in check and ensures that I am able to offset a majority of the cost for my fur babies when they need medical help. Vet care is expensive, but it is necessary. We have had to deal with cancer, and puppy getting into things puppies get into and always I am reimbursed in a rapid manner and I get great follow-up from VPI.

Monthly Cost

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.
