So Thankful for Nationwide

My husband and I are so grateful for Nationwide. It seems that every time we have a major expense for our dog, Nationwide's coverage is more than we expected. We can't imagine owning a pet without having pet insurance and there is NO question that Nationwide is the best out there. We highly recommend it.

A great purchase

I happened upon pet insurance as a benefit offered by my employer. It sounded like a good idea and it didn't seem too expensive so I bought coverage for 3 cats. That same year one of our cats broke her hip and the surgery cost over $3000.00. I submitted a claim and Nationwide sent me a check. They also helped me through the whole process. I'm extremely grateful to the skilled surgeon who performed the operation (our cat has made a full recovery) but I'm also grateful that this accident didn't cost me $3000.00. I am convinced that pet insurance is a prudent thing to have and Nationwide has been great. Thanks!

Vitus Vet App

Vitus Vet App. Been waiting for something like this for so long. I've had VPI/Nationwide coverage for my pets for years and years. This app has made submitting claims SO much easier. I look forward to using it for more in the future.
