Nationwide | Pet Insurance Review

I’m so glad I have the insurance, my dog has really bad allergies and the pills with injections are very costly. My dog had an accident at the park tripped on a hole and messed up her leg pretty bad. Nation wide paid 90% of the surgery. When it rains it pours, months later my dog was limping on the same leg. The screw that they put in there was being rejected by my dogs body. Again another costly surgery. I’m so glad I was able to say do whatever it takes we have insurance for her. She is doing well so far.

Zini had a sudden onset of deafness in March. She was seen by a couple of specialists and had a CAT scan, plus: deep ear cleaning which revealed a hole in her ear drum.... All this was expensive but was covered by my policy. Good Job. Great Insurance

My only complaint is that it takes way to long to receive money back. When visiting the vets you have to pay in full and at times i don’t have the $500 plus extra on hand. It would be nice if it was more like human insurance where we only have to pay what we really owe.

The mobile app, VitusVet, allows for convenient and easy submission of claims to Nationwide pet insurance. Nationwide pays 90% of our approved claims and sends a check through the mail. This is such an easy way to handle pet insurance claims.

Pet insurance has saved my pets’ lives on more than one occasion. My young kitten suffered a potentially fatal urinary blockage, and without a second thought I was able to take him to the hospital and tell them to do anything they needed to do to save him- he was hospitalized with a catheter twice and the third time it happened, within a span of days, the vet stated that he needed a surgery in order to stop this from happening. The alternative was my little kitten’s kidneys shutting down and ending his life. The surgery cost thousands and I was able to move forward with it because of VPI. My cat made a full recovery, is now 3 years old, and I was reimbursed within weeks. In addition to saving my cat, my dog has had a reocurring UTI for over 2.5 months that we are in the process of finding the root cause of- he was recently given the “all clear” of it not being bladder cancer, and we were able to determine that because pet insurance allowed me the peace of mind to make medical decisions based on his health vs my bank account. Within that same time frame, my other dog went into anaphylactic shock in my back yard- another rush to the hospital to save her life and I was able to do it without a thought of the financial burden because of VPI. I’ve been made whole numerous times and my pets are receiving the care they deserve. If you don’t think you need pet insurance for your young or seemingly healthy pet, please research all that this company offers- it isn’t just for accidents. They cover injury, illness, even routine visits. Keep your pet healthy and have that peace of mind!!
