Long-time, satisfied customer

I’ve had Nationwide (since it was VPI—which I still call it) since around 2003 and had/have coverage for numerous dogs. I’ve never failed to feel supported as I’ve gone through various illnesses and injuries with my dogs. Claims are processed in a reasonable time frame and always seem fair. The one instance where I disputed a payment was resolved in my favor. I wouldn’t be without this coverage for my beloved dogs. My grandson and his family chose VPI for their dog based on my good experience and recommendation.

Claim process is so easy.

Tucker spent 2 days at our vet with an intestinal infection. The day I picked him up I took a picture of the vet invoice and sent it in from my phone. Nationwide makes it so easy to file a claim and are very helpful when you have a question.
