Highly recommend Nationwide pet insurance. Easy to use, my vet helped me to submit the form every single time. Reasonable response time to hear from the claim dept.

This insurance is definitely worth it!
I have had this insurance for a little over a year, and it basically pays for itself. Great to have, great coverage, and easy to use.

Incredible service!
I’ve had nationwide pet insurance since my dog was a puppy and I am so grateful! Claims have been so simple and easy for me. My dog was recently diagnosed with knee issues and nationwide stepped in to help with the claim. If they hadn’t been there, we wouldn’t have been able to go through with the surgery. We are so appreciative!

Love Nationwide Pet Insurance
I am very lucky. My veterinary office sends my claims in for me so the process is very easy. The only thing that I would warn new pet owners taking out the insurance is to make sure you get it enough in advance of getting your pet. What Nationwide considers 2 days and what you do may be 2 different things. I thought the 2 day period was up when I got our pup but it wasn’t. She had a UTI & it was considered a “pre-existing condition”. Fortunately she did NOT have anymore and I petitioned for it to be reviewed & removed as a pre-existing condition. Other than that, claims have been very easy. If I got another dog I would get Nationwide Pet Insurance for it too.
