Everything about sending the claim has been easy, smooth and worry free.

After my puppy came down with a horrible virus I was happy I got them on pet insurance. Everything about submitting the claim on the Vitapet app checking the status, contacting a representative and being reimbursed has been worry free and easy. The last thing I needed was to worry about dealing with an insurance company after night of no sleep and stress. Thank you Nationwide for providing great care for the pets!

Slow pay

I am happy with Molly’s policy but they wouldn’t offer me the same policy for my new puppy. Also, I feel like the reimbursement is too long.
