Best insurance policy that you can purchase for your pet

I purchased a gold plan a few years back. My maltipoo got into my wife's purse and ate half a pack of sugarless gum that contain xylitol a sugar substitute. Xylitol is deadly to dogs and my dog started to go into liver failure. Luckily I was able to get him to a vet hospital in time and get him on the proper treatment plan. 5 days later we had a bill for $2,000. Nationwide made it so easy to submit my claim and within a week everything was approved and we received our reimbursement. Everyone that has a pet needs to have a Nationwide insurance policy, since some of these injuries or illnesses can cause thousands of dollars.

Highly recommend Nationwide for pet insurance. This is the second pet we have insured, and are very satisfied with the coverage.

We have been with Nationwide since Marley was 12 weeks old and have always received wonderful service.

Caring staff and easy to understand on the telephone if I have any questions. Excellent service and easy to fill out claim forms. I like the direct deposit a lot. We have been with Nationwide for many years and looking forward many more years of service.
