Easy and efficient.

I've only made one claim thus far, but the process of it all was simple and easy to file. The check came a week prior in the mail, explained what all was covered or not covered and for those specific reasons. Was by far the smartest choice I've made after looking through different pet insurances.

I'm so grateful for Nationwide insurance!

I tell everyone they should have pet insurance! My dog broke his leg and it's costing us just under 4,000 so far. We get our checks back really fast from Nationwide. So grateful to have insurance on both of our poopers!!!

Timely processing and handling

I work in insurance (a competitor!) and I am a commercial lines manager, I know how important timely processing is. You have done a great job processing my recent (and unplanned injuries, poor Bruno) claims quickly and efficiently with payment in less than a week. One claim was processed incorrectly but the rep I spoke to (she was so nice - I don’t remember her name but she was fantastic) immediately remedied it and reprocessed it. Great job and thank you for great service!

It took awahile to get paid.

The last time I put in a claim was a lot easier that this time. I had to mail the information 3 times before I got the check. Otherwise it was okay.
