Reliable insurance that has been there for us. No gimmicks. Thank you.
My standard schnauzer has been insured since she was a puppy. Insurance is easy to use and coverage is great. Highly recommend to friends and family. Wouldn't be without it. Unexpected vet bills can be devastating.

Great service, Prompt payment... Exactly what you want in an insurer!
I couldn't be happier with the service I have received from Nationwide. I have a 10mo old Lab Puppy, who tries to get into everything that is not bolted down to the floor! He had to go into the Puppy ER for an intestinal blockage, and it was so comforting that all I had to worry about was getting him better, not worrying about how much is this and that going to cost! SO worth the monthly premium cost!

There's no reason not to take your pet to the vet if you have insurance.
After having a dog with orthopedic issues, two life-threatening immune-mediated illnesses, and finally cancer, I know all too well how vet bills can pile up and how cost can play a role in whether or not owners pursue treatment, let alone go to the veterinarian in the first place. When we got a new puppy, we didn't hesitate a moment and signed him up for insurance immediately. He's just a year old now, but with just a couple of trips for routine issues (URI and an small injury) we met our deductible. When he started showing signs of lameness, we waited a bit and then took him in for an appointment. That's why we have insurance--so we don't have to hesitate when an issue calls for attention. It turns out that our boy likely has some orthopedic issues and will need some special care. You'll always worry about taking the best care of your fur babies, but having insurance takes away the financial worries. Submitting a claim is easy and hassle free, and reimbursements come quickly
