Insurance that cares for our Pets.

We were not happy in 2018 when I signed up for pet insurance for our new Pet Nala, and found out Nationwide will not cover surgery for pre-existing condition. But they have been good about covering wellness checkups, shots and her trip to Vet for her allergies. So I am giving 4 stars. We have her on Fish oil supplements that is helping her a lot.

I love having Nationwide Pet Insurance for Bam Bam!

I'm so grateful that my employer picked up Nationwide Pet Insurance to offer to us. This is the best choice in giving me a sense of protection for my dog if anything happens to him, if he needs care and for meds/refills.

Helping with her Cushings

Nationwide has helped so much, where possible, to help ease the burden of my dog’s diseases. Very helpful over the phone and online.

Nationwide pet insurance provides such peace of mind.

I would LOVE to never have to use pet insurance because that would mean our girl is always healthy. But...in real life, health issues arise. Our sweet lab has had a mast cell tumor as well as recurrent gastroenteritis. It's so comforting to know we can get her the help she needs to be healthy and happy. Thank you, Nationwide!
