Such a simple straightforward system for filing the claim with fast communication and results.

The process was so simple, from the vet sending in the claim to the quick email response that kept us informed of where our claim was, to the quick online deposit for the claim. The follow up also was greatly appreciated. Of course I wish that more of our 2nd blood test had been covered...but overall I am very happy with the service. We have had this pet insurance since we got Loki and we have not needed to use it before now. We were grateful to have it in this stressful situation. Luckily, after the additional tests, we found that all is good!

Best Coverage

Wow. Insurance for pets has changed in the last 10 years. Claims submitted via an app,, a check received within two weeks, and most vet expenses were covered (granted I pay into the better plan). I highly recommend Nationwide Insurance for the care of your furry babies.

Filing claims have been easy and receiving the payments have been prompt.

Pet Insurance coverage for our dog has been well worth it even though premiums have been costly.

Thank you

I was surprised as I had heard some pet health insurance was a scam, however Nationwide paid quickly and easily and helped May cover the cost of my sweet kitty's care. Unfortunately, she has terminal cancer and will not live.
