We're so thankful for the speedy approval of claim and assistance during our stressful times.
We've insured our dog with Nationwide for just about five years and every contact and claim process has been great. We generally don't hit our deductible, but when our furbaby had a recent growth that needed biopsied, the claims process and payout was speedy and pretty much hassle free. Thank you Nationwide!

Couldn't be easier
When your pet is sick or having issues the last thing you want to deal with is cumbersome insurance paperwork. With Nationwide there is none of that. I fill in a few things on the mostly pre-filled form and fax it over with the necessary paperwork. I get notified when a plan statement is ready and find out what benefit I will be receiving. Couldn't be easier.
