Both our Goldens have benefitted and the company has been caring and helpful for years.

I had originally used VPI for my Golden who I lost 10 years ago and for the last 10 years, we have have been using the insurance for our two Goldens. There is rarely any waiting on the phone to speak to an agent, my claims are worked on and processed quickly and the agents have always been helpful and concerned about my pets.

So happy I have Nationwide Insurance for my dog!

We took insurance out when our dog was 2. So glad that I did! It makes going to the vet an easy choice, knowing that some of the cost will be covered. She has had a few things wrong with her and it's comforting to know that we don't have to think about taking her to the vet. Nationwide is so easy to deal with! Plus, we get back a high percentage of what it costs. If we ever get another pet we will be sure to get Nationwide pet insurance!
