I am very happy with Nation Wide and feel at ease that Gia is well covered.

My experience with Nationwide Pet I surance has been a positive one. Great coverage, helpful customer service and easy claim filing are all pluses. Getting insurance for my baby girl is one of the best things I did to help protect her.

Ask less questions.

The response was much faster than earlier. Too many unneccessary required fields in the review.

Have had issues with claim reimbursement.

Everything sounded great when I was initially signing up. I was completely honest about my dog’s health. The first claim I submitted was somehow lost Or dropped on Nationwide’s end and I had to advocate for myself to get the payment. I have now been denied payment of a claim with the explanation “pre-existing condition”, which is not true. I am frustrated that I have to take the time and effort to advocate for myself and my dog again. My confidence in Nationwide is shaken now and I may reconsider my options for coverage. I heard good things about Nationwide, but my personal experience has left me feeling otherwise, which is really disappointing. I was quick to recommend Nationwide to others in the beginning based on the the cost, but I would mention Nationwide with caution at this point.

Wish I would have signed up sooner!

Is nice to have the peace of mind that my dogs are covered not only for preventive services but emergency as well. It is really easy to file claims and they are settled quickly and payment just transferred to my bank account.
