Making a claim was easy; the customer service is Stellar!

I am very grateful that I invested in pet insurance. My Mercedes became unexpectedly sick with congestive heart failure. Nationwide paid my claim--even when I was referred to a second vet who required me to pay the same exam fee that I had just paid, again. Without this insurance, I could not have afforded the care my kitty needed and she would have died--probably by asphyxiation as I wouldn't have been able to stop the fluid from entering filling her lungs. I have made it a point to let both friends and family know how wonderful this insurance is. Peace of mind is wonderful.

One of the best decisions we ever made!

We think Nationwide's pet insurance is awesome! The claims are paid correctly and timely! There has never been a dispute or delay in payment. Even though we would provide our pets with the best care possible, being backed up with insurance just gives us peace of mind. It absolutely is the one of the best decisions we ever made for our Golden.

Well worth having!

If your dog is curious and adventurous, then I highly recommend Nationwide Pet Insurance. Our beagle mix follows his nose everywhere which has lead to eating bees, cutting his leg and getting to a bag of mice trap baits. Through it all our insurance had been there to help with the vet bills. His latest misadventure has required surgery for an ACL tear and I’m expecting the same great service we have received in the past.

Good but slow

I disagree with holding pre-existing conditions against wellness services. I was disappointed that Nationwide didn't pay at least some portion of the dental cleaning. Other than this, they've been okay.
