Nationwide pet insurance is the best

I am very happy with Nationwide service. Straight forward no issues with claims and customer service is excellent. Had an amazing experience with 24/7 help line.

You've been a financial lifesaver for our babies

So much had been going, I hadn't gotten my billings sent. Then Tayla Sue had a lump on her rib cage and it was cancer. When I started sending in the paperwork, the money Nationwide returned helped us so much with her surgery. Thank you so much. Just like any insurance, most of the time you have it & don't need it, BUT when you DO need it, they've been wonderful

Fast claim turnaround and considerate customer care

We have had Nationwide (formerly VPI) pet insurance since our 12 year old beagle/basset was a puppy. The claims are processed quickly and benefits received promptly. The Major Medical plan is great for us, especially now as our dog ages. It covers so much and we don't hesitate to take her to the vet because we know we will get most or all of our expenses reimbursed. Yes, it is a bit pricey, but well worth the cost to keep our pet well and happy.

Monthly Cost

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.
