Nationwide Pet Insurance pays claims with ease

Our dog got very sick and had a number of medical bills until the vets figured out the issue. Nationwide Pet Insurance covered our bills as contracted with no effort on our part. It was a welcome relief during a difficult time for our family.

Feeling Good About My Pets

I am so happy that I decided to get insurance for my 2 dogs - Brodie and Harry. Knowing that I have coverage for them for medical concerns is a good feeling. It is easy to submit a claim and the response time from customer service is excellent.

So happy we got pet insurance!

Our new puppy pulled a sock off our grandsons foot and swallowed it. Called the vet and they said that's not good. Recommended we take the pup to the pet ER. Long story short they were able to retrieve the sock with an endoscopic procedure. Kept him overnight and he was as good as new the next morning. Having the insurance made decision making regarding different options so much easier.
