Nationwide is easy to work with and timely with reimbursements

I first heard of Nationwide pet insurance while at my vet's, there was a brochure in the waiting area. After a devasting loss of a pet earlier this year, I now use Nationwide for both my pets (kitten and dog). I send in a claim for all wellness visits - I fortunately have not had any veterinary emergencies - the online claim submission is simple, easy to do, and I am reimbursed in timely manner (about two weeks). This is still my first year with them so hopefully there won't be any premium surprises going forward! I am thankful I have the coverage and recommend Nationwide.

Best pet insurance ever!

We have had pet insurance since our Afghan Hound /Poodle mix was 8 weeks old. My Vet suggested it & I have to admit at the time I was very skeptical. (LIKE really? Im just flushing, my $$$ away? ) However less than 18 months later our Dog Toa had a traumatic accident & broke both of his front legs, a pneumothorax, and damage to his liver & spleen. To say we were stressed is putting it mildly, Once we had Toa settled at CARE vets I immediately called Nationwide & they reassured me that we were covered for insurance. Without this, we simply would not have been able to afford his treatment. Thank you Nationwide Pet Insurance.

Nationwide makes pet insurance easy, affordable, and well worth it!

Nationwide has taken a lot of the financial stress involved with having a senior pup out of the equation. The app used for submitting claim forms is intuitive and easy to use, and the processing time is entirely reasonable (actually quite speedy!), which is much appreciated. We'll be Nationwide Pet Insurance customers for life, based on the service and responsiveness we've enjoyed so far!

The best pet insurance, highly recommended

My cat was diagnosed with cancer last year. We didn't do the chemo treatment but put her on steroids instead. Since then we had to do numerous folo up treatment and she had other health issues like respiratory problem and eye problem. Her eye problem turned out to be cornea ulcer. Vet treated her with eye drops but eventually have to go to an ophthalmologist. Long story short, I submitted a lot of claims for my cat's vet visit and got payment back every time, after meeting my deductible. Everything is so easy and fast. Thanks for taking care of the bills so that there's one less thing to worry about.
