Decent and Helpful
This pet insurance is a life saver, while some exclusions are certainly frustrating, the benefits outweigh.

Godsend
We have four animals (3 cats and one dog) on Nationwide insurance. It is such a comfort to know that no matter what ailments come into their lives, we are able to prioritize their care above treatment costs. Filing claims is super easy via email and getting payment is always extremely fast and sent directly to my account so I don't even have to worry about depositing the check. I can't thank Nationwide enough!

Never thought I’d need it but it helped in a pinch, thank you!
I’ve had pet friends before I could walk. From fish to birds and so many in between. Never once have I ever needed to visit the vet as much as I do today. It is costly and when the pet you love so much is sick, you sacrifice and sometimes you just don’t have it. Fortunately for me, it has been easier for to pay knowing something is coming back. I wished it was a 100% but 90% is absolutely better than nothing. The process is easy and the wait time is quick. Still learning to understand the explanation of benefits and why some things aren’t/partially covered. I’m grateful for the insurance coverage I never thought I’d have. My job offered it and I thought it best to try and it paid off.

Speedy claim processing
When our previously always-healthy cat Shirley began vomiting regularly, we eliminated certain common diseases through a blood test, but she needed an ultrasound to look deeper into what was going on. Pancreatitis was the diagnosis, and while dealing with illness is stressful, we were relieved to have found a treatable cause for her symptoms. Lab tests are expensive, though, and Nationwide's speedy claim processing helped us avoid that additional stress.
