Best pet insurance on the market!
We have been with Nationwide (formerly VPI) for 12 or so years. We have always been extremely satisfied with the friendly customer service and prompt claims service! I would highly recommend Nationwide to any pet parent looking for the best pet insurance!

Outstanding coverage
We honestly can’t believe how good the insurance coverage has been for our pup Charley. She had to go to emergency and the entire bill was covered less the deductible. It certainly is comforting knowing that we have that for her.

Easier than I thought
I submitted my claim using vitusvet. Was absolutely hassle-free. I got an email when they received my claim and another as they were reviewing it. When my claim was approved I was able to have it sent directly into my bank account, there was no paperwork involved

Easy claim submission, but premiums are too high!
I really like everything about the insurance and how it works, and claim submissions are really easy. The only issue is that the premiums are so high it doesn't make having the insurance worth it. I don't plan on continuing after the first year.
