Nationwide has literally saved my pups' lives

Mickey and Finn have had to have multiple surgeries in their first year. Nationwide has responded quickly and with no fuss. I have been amazed at their loyalty to me as a customer. I tout their praises every time someone asks me how it is I have survived the first year.

Easy, simple and stress free claim service

I appreciate the simplistic nature of the claim process. Hank needed a cyst removed and then had a complication of his incision opening up again after 2 weeks. The claim process was simple for both events, thank you!

Quick Claims Processing

Nationwide processes claims within two days of uploading documentation. While you do have to pay the vet directly, Nationwide often compensates within 5 business days. They also have an app where you can upload a picture of the receipt for ease of use. I have had no issues with either emergency or wellness claims.

Monthly Cost

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.

The company’s most popular plan, Whole Pet with Wellness, offers 90% reimbursement for accident, injury, illness and wellness care, inclusive of exam fees.
