Thankful

A week after picking out a new pup I lost my 8 yr old golden to cancer. I never wanted cost to be a factor in my decision making so I took out a policy. Everything seemed fine but behavioral issues showed that could not be corrected with training. She developed allergies and now has an eye problem. I never expected to have so many visits to the vet including specialists. Nationwide has been wonderful at all stages. Life would have been so difficult for me and my dog. Despite everything she and I are doing well thanks to Nationwide

Best decision I’ve made!

After putting my 2 year old cat down unexpectedly, I looked into pet insurance to offset the cost of a pet emergency. I now have botch of my current cats enrolled and am thankful for the coverage. I get money reimbursed for almost everything done, and if it’s not reimbursed it’s applied to a very low dollar co-pay. The customer service department and claims system are all so helpful and easy to utilize. I am very happy with my coverage!

First rate service from caring people

I am always able to get a prompt courteous answer to my questions and the claims processing time has improved dramatically this year. My dog has been quite ill this year and Nationwide has been very helpful with quick turnaround on my claims and issuance of reimbursement checks.

Peace of Mind

We are so happy we made the decision to get full coverage for our puppy, Lucy, especially for her first year. We have had 3 visits to urgent care in 6 months due to digestive issues and eating things puppies should not. Despite our vigilence in puppy proofing our house, Lucy has managed to get into things we never dreamed she would ever be interested in. Thankfully we have great pet healthcare locally. They have worked in conjunction with Nationwide to help process our claims quickly and efficiently. Thankfully, Lucy is learning every day and will survive her first year, and so will we!
