I'm somewhat satisfied

I've have had a claim sitting there since July 15 and I'm trying to do a electronic payment and it won't let me set it up

Claim

My recent claim was paid the fastest ever! I don't like how the premiums increase every year. My premiums are always more that the actual health care costs.

I could focus on getting him better, not worrying about how I was going to afford it.

I can't stop singing the praise of Nationwide Pet Insurance to all of my pet parent friends! This has been a rrruff year! Dental cleaning in February, followed by a blown knee in March that resulted in TPLO surgery and then an unusual, scary looking growth under his armpit in July that was removed and biopsied (thankfully it came back benign). Every time someone asks me how I can afford pet insurance, I reply, "how can I not?". Even with the increase of premiums this year, I will continue with the coverage I have had because it really, REALLY allows me to focus on making sure he is healthy and happy! Thank you again!

Easy claim process

It is so easy to submit a claim! And, the review and payout process is quick and efficient. I especially like the option to direct deposit into our bank account. This is the easiest claim process I’ve ever used. Thank you!

Nationwide is on my side!

I have nothing but great things to say about Nationwide pet insurance. Nationwide has indeed kept their word and provided Miley (our dog) with the best coverage. Nationwide is responsive and quick with their reimbursements. Every time I've called Nationwide with a question, the representatives have done their best to answer my questions and let me know that they care about my pet. I've recommended Nationwide to other pet owners because their insurance sounds a lot better than other ones.
