Very happy

Nationwide Pet Insurance has always allowed me to take the best care of my pets without worry how expensive care is. They have also been extremely fair with reimbursements. It’s too bad human health insurance isn’t as good and easy as this!

Should have told me it had to be reviewed before accepted!

Everything was fine, the person on the phone helped me very much, the price was spot on, but I'm not happy that I just now found out that the insurance hasn't been approved yet; after I already ended his other insurance. The person on the phone should have told me this and they did not. I would have waited so that there were no days that Skeeter was not insured; not very happy about this at all

OUR DOGS ARE IN GOOD HANDS WITH NATIONWIDE

I spoke with Chad and he answered my questions and emailed me information right away. I had more questions and called and Chad was not available at that time and another very helpful man answered a couple more questions and we had a nice short visit about Goldens as he has a Golden too and he told me he and Chad were going into a meeting and he would tell Chad that I called. Chad called me back after the meeting and we discussed getting our Golden Rainy back with Nationwide and also adding our newly adopted Golden Augie and we have been with Nationwide around 20 years and during that time Nationwide has always done right by our dogs and we like to stay with a company that has always been there for our dogs and we were welcomed back and we feel we and our dogs are in good hands with Nationwide.
