Nationwide makes the claims process easy and is extremely efficient.

We have been using Nationwide for 3-4 years and they have expansive coverage and an easy claims process. I have not had any issues with the company thus far. I would highly recommend them!

Only The Best Pet Insurance for my pets!

In the middle of today's world of "what's going to happen next", my dog needed emergency back surgery to repair a couple discs so he could walk again without pain. Thankfully I had Nationwide on my side, and they covered 90% of the cost of this sudden and very expensive surgery including an MRI and a couple days in recovery at the animal hospital. I can't tell you how much I appreciated them taking care of the financial side of things so I could focus on the care and rehabilitation of my baby. The best part was that they reimbursed me within a week of filing the claim. So anyone who's hesitating about buying a policy from Nationwide...don't! As a health insurance agent myself, I know insurance carriers and they are top notch!

Nationwide Pet Insurance is our partner

We've had Nationwide Insurance since Walker was a puppy. He turned 3 on Monday! Nationwide has delivered on its promise to ease the financial burden of taking care of unexpected medical expenses. We had a different pet insurance company for our previous dog and in 6 years of coverage, they paid a small part of only one medical bill. Nationwide has been helpful, efficient, easy to work with. I have recommended them to several friends with pets.

Premiums are out-of-sight

Good customer service. Premium increases are troubling. I keep the insurance primarily for possible catastrophic emergencies.

Monthly Cost

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.

Coverage

Nationwide offers a variety of plans offering varying levels of coverage. The company’s most popular plan, Whole Pet with Wellness, offers 90% reimbursement for accident, injury, illness and wellness care, inclusive of exam fees. All Nationwide members have complimentary 24/7 access to vethelpline.

Payout Limits

Depending on the plan selected, there may be annual benefit limits or per incident benefit allowances. There is no annual limit for the company’s most popular plan, Whole Pet with Wellness.
