Great Insurance Company, Great Experience Always

We have two insured family companions and Nationwide has been outstanding for us throughout. The claims process is easy, quick and predictable and the insurance company is great to deal with.

I value the work that you do, person(s) behind the screen!

You guys and gals are great. I have 2 policies for Jack, my Siberian Husky via Nationwide, and formerly for Kit, my now deceased Siberian Husky. Whenever I take them for a vet visit, I simply follow the directions to file the claim for any services that can be reimbursed through my policy, and within 30 days I get my statement back on what was covered, what wasn't, and why. Pretty simple and reliable. Thanks for what you do.

Every pet owner needs this.

We have Nationwide Pet Insurance for all three of our cats. Although none of them have had a serious issue yet, it has been wonderful to have when one of the cats needed a dental cleaning. Those are not cheap, and she had an extraction, as well. I submitted our claims and within two weeks, we had our check from Nationwide. Our daughter is a vet and when she told me that this was one of the best pet insurance policies around, we signed up. I didn't want to ever have to make a difficult decision based on the cost.

Monthly Cost

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.
