Petco and Nationwide have joined forces to make pet health and wellness more accessible and affordable for pet parents. This exciting partnership introduces a new, customizable pet insurance option, Petco | Nationwide pet insurance, now available on petco.com. This collaboration combines Nationwide’s leading pet insurance expertise with Petco’s comprehensive pet care ecosystem, offering a seamless experience for pet owners seeking the best protection for their beloved companions.
Tailoring Pet Insurance to Your Pet’s Unique Needs
The new Petco | Nationwide pet insurance is designed with flexibility in mind. Recognizing that every pet is different and every pet owner has unique financial considerations, the program allows you to build a policy that truly fits your pet’s specific health needs and your budget.
This customizable approach starts with essential coverage for unexpected accident-related veterinary expenses. Whether it’s broken bones, cuts, or accidental poisoning, you can rest assured knowing you have a safety net. Beyond accident coverage, pet parents have the option to add coverage for illnesses and diseases, providing comprehensive protection against a wider range of health issues. For those focused on preventative care, a wellness add-on is also available. This helps manage the costs associated with routine check-ups, vaccinations, and preventative treatments for fleas and ticks, ensuring your pet stays healthy year-round.
To further tailor your plan, several customization options are available:
- Reimbursement Levels: Choose to be reimbursed for 50%, 70%, or 90% of eligible vet expenses.
- Deductible Options: Select an annual deductible that works for you, ranging from $100 to $500.
- Coverage Limits: From $5,000 to unlimited annual coverage, you can choose the level of financial protection that best suits your needs.
Plans are not limited to just dogs and cats. Petco | Nationwide pet insurance extends coverage to avian and exotic pets, including reptiles and rodents, ensuring a wide variety of animal companions can benefit from this offering. Accident-only plans can be particularly affordable, starting at around $16 per month for dogs and $9 per month for cats in select areas.
Exclusive Benefits and Integrated Pet Care
Enrolling in Petco | Nationwide pet insurance unlocks access to exclusive discounts and savings within Petco’s extensive veterinary network. Members enjoy special offers at over 280 Vetco Total Care hospitals and approximately 1,450 weekly mobile Vetco Vaccination Clinics across the country.
Furthermore, Nationwide’s existing pet insurance members (over 1.2 million strong) also benefit from this partnership. They receive a 10% discount on all services at Vetco Total Care hospitals and Vetco Vaccination Clinics. This discount applies to all services received during the visit, even those not typically covered by their insurance plan, creating even greater value and affordability.
