Nationwide Really Is On Your Side

I started with Nationwide when my company began offering it. I was hesitant at first, because friends did not provide me with positive information. They were wrong - ANYONE who has a pet needs insurance. Not only has Nationwide provided financial support during some tough illnesses, they are a great resource for information. When I lost my pup the day after Christmas, they send a sympathy card. May not seem like much these days, but they make every effort to make you feel like family!

Disappointed in service

Very disappointed in my recent claims. I spent a great deal of money on our dog's very rare medical condition and did not receive any reimbursement. There wasn't even a code for his diagnosis, how can the claim be turned down?? Poor coverage for expenses.

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.
