excellent
Very happy with Nationwide Pet Insurance. Had it for my last dog who had some major health issues, but finally passed from liver cancer. Nationwide helped a lot with the medical expenses for her. Now we have it for our present dog. Would highly recommend having this coverage to anyone who has a pet.

Nationwide saved my pet's life!
I adopted my dog about a year ago from the shelter and since then he hasn't had the best of luck with other dogs. He is slowly getting there but we wouldn't be here now together if I didn't have pet insurance. His been the victim of two dog attacks. The first time around I didn't have insurance of any kind and the cost was terrible. I was lucky enough that the owner of the other dog paid for my vet bills but after that I was thinking what are the chances this could happen again. About four months later he was attacked at a dog park. By this time I had Nationwide and they covered the full cost. It did take longer to process my claim because at first they thought it was from the first attack and of course they don't cover pre existing conditions. But after calling and sending in the extra paper work needed to show it wasn't, everything was covered right away. It feels great knowing that I can take my dog to the vet when he needs it and not have to worry about what it will cost me. Some people think I'm crazy for paying monthly on insurance for my dog but if I didn't have it I don't think Lord Bahr would be laying down next to me right at this moment while he waits for me to finish this review. Thank you so much!

VPI is always here for what my girls need!
I got VPI pet insurance years ago when it was first offered, and all 5 of my dogs since then have enjoyed continuous coverage. VPI has walked alongside me, caring for these beautiful souls, from the time they were little to the heartbreaking days when it was time to say goodbye. VPI is essential to my ability to handle whatever may arise in the life of my beloved pups. Thank you VPI, for always being there!
