Easy to work with and efficient

Signing up for Nationwide's pet insurance was the best thing we could have done for our not-so-little, little girl. Nationwide has been very helpful, it is very easy to submit claims, and they are very efficient at processing the payment.

Thank you for easy and speedy service even my cat is in Hong Kong

At last year, we relocated to Hong Kong with our 13 years old cat, Charlie Brown, He immediately had upper respiratory infection when we landed Hong Kong, then after few months on antibiotics, the vet suggested to send him for CT scan and biopsy, and was diagnosed nasal lymphoma , we decided to give him chemo treatment, since then, Charlie gradually developed IBD, pancreatitis, Kidney Failure at last chemo months, the vet bills has piled up like crazy and still continuing. Thanks Nationwide Insurance to provide the easiest and speedy claim process which helped us even when we are in Hong Kong.

Great Company to work with!

Both of my doxies had to have mouth surgery and teeth extracted. It was a very costly procedure. I felt confident knowing my insurance would reimburse me for some of the cost. It's very easy to file a claim. My payment was received in a very timely manner.

I'm disgusted at Nationwide's annual coverage

I'm disgusted that Nationwide's annual coverage only covers 1 monthly veterinary invoice for Cushing's. I have bought annual veterinary coverage through Nationwide (formerly VPI) for each of my 2 pets for the last 12 years. My dog was diagnosed with Cushing's disease at age 11 and since then, I receive veterinary bills of $300-500+ every other month. However Nationwide will only reimburse a total of $385 per year for Cushing's. Why am I bothering to get pet insurance???
