Very satisfied

Having pet insurance takes a lot of worry out of the way. We didn’t have it for our first dog & learned the hard way. We have been very happy with nationwide. It’s very straightforward and easy.

Nationwide has been great!

Nationwide has exceeded my expectations. I was skeptical. The last time I took out pet insurance was in 1999 and it barely paid for itself. Thank goodness things have improved. My puppy has gotten into a bit of trouble and most of my claims have been paid for. The only thing the insurance didn’t pay for was her spay. They even paid for the Heartworm test and medication. Yay!

Best pet insurance, hands down

I have been a client of Nationwide Pet Insurance for over 10 years. I've had both my french bulldogs covered under their various policies. In the last few years, I've had the whole pet with wellness rider plan. It covers 90% of all our expenses after our deductible. It is expensive (and this last years rate hike was extreme) but I decided to stay with the same coverage. The coverages give me a real piece of mind. If next years price increase jumps nearly $100 again I will look into switching companies. So Nationwide please take this into consideration. While I understand that insurance costs reflect a multitude of factors - at the rates, I am now paying - the least insurance companies should do is try and get the costs we pay per year deducted on our taxes. Use your influence and lobbyists; our animals are a part of our family.

Monthly Cost

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.

Coverage

Nationwide offers a variety of plans offering varying levels of coverage. The company’s most popular plan, Whole Pet with Wellness, offers 90% reimbursement for accident, injury, illness and wellness care, inclusive of exam fees. All Nationwide members have complimentary 24/7 access to vethelpline.

Payout Limits

Depending on the plan selected, there may be annual benefit limits or per incident benefit allowances. There is no annual limit for the company’s most popular plan, Whole Pet with Wellness.

Deductible

Annual deductibles range from $0 to $1,000. Most popular annual deductible for Whole Pet with Wellness is $250.

Age Limits

No age restriction to enroll in company’s most popular plan, Whole Pet with Wellness. Other plans may have age restrictions.

Waiting Period

14-day waiting period after application approved and payment of premium is received.

Exclusions

Pre-existing conditions are not covered on any plans (if a condition is curable, it may be eligible for review if pet remains treatment-free for at least six months). Whole Pet with Wellness covers nearly all veterinary expenses. Notable exclusions include boarding and grooming.
Since 1982, Nationwide has helped pet owners protect what matters most.
