Worth every penny

I was initially resistant to pet insurance but this has been a great value for our Frenchies. Definitely recommend Nationwide.

Grateful

We do not have children, we have dogs. We started pet insurance with VPI in the early 2000 have have continued ever since. The coverage is comprehensive, clearly defined and has literally extended our pets lives by allowing us the affordable treatments needed when they arise. Our current lab, Bode was diagnosed with bilateral elbow dysplasia requiring surgery at the age of 1. The specialist who performed the surgery said it was the worse case of bone fragments removed held seen in the over 4,000 sx he'll performed. This would have been a cost prohibitive procedure had it not been for our insurance. This is only 1 or so many positive examples we have had over the years with multiple pets.

Great Insurance Company

Nationwide took excellent care of Jasper and his claim. So we did not need to worry about the money aspect of his surgery and just focus on helping him recover.

Great company to work with for our pets insurance needs

Covered all issues with a quick payment of all claims. Called to clarify some of the details and the representative was very helpful and reminded me that the vethelpline® is available 24/7 for any questions. Enjoy working with Nationwide Pet Insurance for both our dogs.
