Thankful for Insurance

Sending in the vet claims was incredibly easy. The explanation when claims were returned either paid or not was clear. Thank goodness for this insurance. I was able to get my pet the care he needed without blinking an eye about cost. My only criticism is that the claim process can sometimes take weeks which is a little slow when you’ve already fronted the cash.

Amazing

When I got my dog Ellie, my wife and I decided that we are going to give our dog the best life possible. That included getting pet insurance. I've had dogs through the years but I never had coverage for them. This time, I was going to get it cause you want to be prepared for the unexpected. I can tell you, I was not disappointed in choosing Nationwide. They have been there for those times you could never prepare for (injuries, Pet ER visits). They are a lifesaver and I highly recommend all pet owners to get coverage through them.

Wish things moved faster

The website is the easy part. Having to wait while there is processing time is very difficult financially. Wish that part could move a little quicker.
