I Wish I Had Looked Into Pet Insurance Years Ago
I had always heard about pet insurance but never really checked it out, until recently. Dealing with Nationwide is a pleasure. They cover just about anything the pet needs, not just emergencies or operations, as I thought. The claiming process is easy. Just one short form to fill out. They keep you informed of the time frame, for your payment, and you don't have to keep checking with them, about where it is.

This is the first experience I have had with a pet insurance company. So far, the service has been amazing.
This company has really put me at ease finacially, when it has come to treating my dog. Being a veterinary technician, i know I should be doing the gold standard of treatments when he gets sick (especially in order to prevent him from progressing). Because of Nationwide, I can do all of that without second guessing and he can recover quickly, and get back to being the amazing pug that he is.

Great Coverage
I have an older dog who was recently diagnosed with Lyme's Disease. This has been extremely hard on him but thankfully Nationwide Pet Insurance has made it easy on us for reimbursement of his medical bills, ensuring he is getting the best treatment.

Great thing to have for my dog so I don’t have to worry about the cost of his medical care.
Buying pet insurance for my last two dogs has been great. The insurance has paid substantially for everything from copperhead bites to treatment of melanoma of the iris . Also the routine care any good pet owner gets for their dog. It has relieved me from holding back from tests recommended by vet when trying to diagnose an illness. I would not want to be with out this insurance!
