Once I got myself on the electronic system, things worked like a charm

The insurance is expensive unless you are using the benefit often like we are. Captain Jack has pancreatitis and is on meds and regular visits to the vet. The insurance helps with the cost.

Awesome

The underwriters reviewed Luigi’s case and a thorough and professional manner and really provided excellent coverage for his gastrointestinal problem as well as his prior surgery this year. They truly went above and beyond and we are very appreciative. We have recommended nationwide to every pet owner we encounter

Nationwide is the BEST Pet Insurance EVER!

Chloe has been a sick little pup from the beginning, starting with worms. She has two bad knees that I'm trying to hold off getting on operation on, digestive issues that give her diarrhea and make her throw-up. She also has anxiety issues. But every time we take her to the vet, I know I won't have to worry about hassles with her insurance. Nationwide's claim's team has been excellent. I upload the bill and explanation of service and I immediately receive a confirmation email. A few weeks later I receive an email to obtain a status on my claim and the next thing I know, there's a check in my mailbox. With all the health issues I have to worry about with Chloe, it's sure nice to know I don't have to worry about the insurance.
