Having nationwide pet insurance has been great

I’ve had nationwide since I got my frenchie at 6 and a half weeks old. It’s been very helpful and gives me piece of mind knowing that if she needs to go to the vet She’s covered and I’ll get reimbursed some of the cost.

Very Consistent in Processing Claims Expeditiously!

I have had two dogs covered by VPI and then Nationwide and I believe Nationwide's claims process is very proficient and easy to use. The claims and reimbursement are processed very expeditiously! Very satisfied with coverage - just wish the annual fees didn't go up so high when the dog gets older.

Unbelievable how easy the claim process was, I expected it to be a huge hassle!!

I honestly put off filing the claim because I thought it would be a huge pain in the neck. I can't say enough about how easy it was and how fast I received my check.

Nationwide Pet Insurance has been good so far for my new puppy!

I have been pleased so far with the ease of use in filing a claim for Louis' first vet appointment. I was sad to find out that a prescription for an antiseptic wipe for his wrinkles was not covered because it was an "abnormality." The wipes were a prescription to prevent issues down the road, so it didn't really make sense to me that this is considered an abnormality. However, other than that, I have been pleased so far. We have his next wellness check in 2 weeks.
