Great company but pricey!!
I have had Nationwide for 2 dogs now. They are a great company with excellent customer service & claims are easy to submit. My one & only complaint is the price. It's extremely high! My dog's coverage has gone from $80 to almost $200 which I feel is a drastic change!! Please consider lowering the price - even a little bit! This extreme climb in price has forced my Nationwide friends to go elsewhere.

Expensive - but worth it for the peace of mind
We have pet insurance on both our dogs - so we wouldn't have to make any hard choices based on cost. It reminds us to have twice yearly checkups with blood work, and to keep up on flea and heart worm control, as it is included in our premium - this helps keep them both healthy and avoids/catches issues that might otherwise shorten their lives. One of them has had some benign skin lesions which, because of the insurance, we have been able to stay on top of - and remove each one before they are worrisome. This has allowed us to have her checked and have the maintenance necessary to avoid a worsening condition that could be life threatening. Thank you, Nationwide, for allowing us the peace of mind that comes with insuring our pets are covered should anything serious come along - you have our back.

Could not get this to connect!
Website address for obtaining claims forms varies year to year. Difficult to find the email address and claim submission process. I finally wound up taking phone pics of my documents and submitting the email claim that way.
