Fantastic coverage,

Unexpectedly we found our 3 year old mini Australian Shepard diagnosed with bladder stones. He has had multiple emergency surgeries to break up the stones and finally found himself having to have a full blown cystotomy, bladder surgery to scrape out all stones and crystals in his bladder. While we have had to deal with uncertainty of what we are dealing with, what the best course of action is and ultimately having to take him in for surgery we have never had to stop and make a decision based on what we could afford because we had made the decision, when we brought Toby into our family, to have him insured. Nationwide has cleared the way with helpful service, easy claim submitting and extremely fast payments. Nationwide has allowed us to focus strictly on what is best for the health of our pup for which we are extremely grateful.

Nationwide was there when we needed them.

We had 3 Saint Bernards. Pebbles, Stormy and we recently lost BamBam to Tcell Lymphoma. He had just turned 6 when it was discovered. He was the sweetest boy you could ever imagine. Everyone loved him, he made friends wherever he went. The treatments were expensive and without this insurance we would have lost him a year earlier. Nationwide gave us an entire year with him before his poor body couldn’t take any more chemo treatments. I treasured every minute with him and was glad we could do whatever was needed to keep him with us. This insurance is a piece of mind. They also reimburse you very quickly when you submit the invoices. I am glad we have Nationwide. Stormy just recently got spayed and had a gastroplexy. We paid the deductible and then was reimbursed 90%. Pebbles will be 10 and we have had VPI before it became Nationwide. I have recommended Nationwide to all of my friends.

Lexi has an ongoing issue with multiple vet visits for over 2 months yet Nationwide expedited our claims quickly.

Lexi has an ongoing issue with multiple vet visits for over 2 months yet Nationwide expedited our claims quickly and without dispute or delay. I always recommend Nationwide when people ask. My daughter switched over to Nationwide after having a very poor experience with her previous pet insurance company. Thank you for not adding on any more stress with Lexi’s illness.

Love, love, love Nationwide Pet Insurance Plan!!

We are new to the Nationwide Pet Insurance program, but are sold! We have taken our dog to the vet a couple of times and submitted claims for both visits. The ease of filing a claim is amazing and we received our payment within just a few days. We will definitely be renewing our policy.
