Nationwide really cares about your pets health.

I have had this insurance since she was about 4 months old. I am so glad that I got this insurance for my furry baby as she has many medical problems...I never thought that would have happened. They always take care of us. This little girl is our life.

It’s a great help to the veterinary bill.

I live on a fixed income and going to the vet can be scary because it’s an added expense. This insurance is wonderful. Every pet owner should have it

Simple To Do!

Making a claim was so easy with Nationwide. I got a response back immediately that my claim had been received and I received my check within a week.

The on-line claims process did not work for several months and it was frustrating.

The on-line claims process did not work for several months. When I would call I was told to use a different browser. Not necessarily what a client wants to hear. I did not have success with a different browser. Then miraculously, I tried it again awhile later and it worked beautifully. Whatever upgrades were made to the site were worth it for your client.
