Great experience.

Nationwide is the first pet insurance I've ever had for my dog. It helped me save vet costs on several occasions. Claim submitting process is easy and straight forward. The money were in my bank account within 2-3 weeks after submitting the claims. Thank you for your great work and helping me saving on vet bills.

Great Policy

I love having the safety net of the Nationwide insurance policy for my furbabies. The policy is easy to understand and it was easy to get the policy set up. Only compliant is that the claims take a while (about a month) to receive back, but when it is finally back, it is well worth it.

Best Pet Insurance Ive encountered, too bad human insurance isn't as good!

I have to say up front, my wife handles all of the claim paperwork, but from I have seen it is very straight forward and much easier and simpler then the previous pet insurance we had, which is why we have stuck with VIP/ Nationwide. While the other insurance talks a good game, VIP, plays the insurance game to the benefit of the Pet and the owners. Our new puppy, coming in late September will be enrolled as soon as possible once we acquire her. For creatures that can not talk, or complain, they are treated like royalty by VIP, who really stand by what they say to get you to sign on with them.
