Nationwide is the best!

Our Scottish Terrier has had a few setbacks this past year,but Nationwide was right there to help out with the expenses. If I had to call for something I was treated with such courtesy and Nationwide always helped me out with any questions I had.

Worth every penny

Had numerous visits to the vet since beginning of the year and have been very satisfied with the reimbursement time and amount from Nationwide. Really have no complaints.

Thank you!

My dog was attacked my another dog and we were devastated! We took him to urgent care and had this huge unexpected bill for over one thousand dollars! I am so thankful we have Nationwide pet insurance for him because it covered everything minus the deductible. He is doing great now and I could not be more grateful for this pet insurance. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Prompt response

I have recently gotten my dog on pet insurance and it was a good thing we did. He has been having issues with his eye and the costs have added up already. Although i pay a high monthly fee for this coverage, it has really paid off to have my dog fully covered. I have received my reimbursements very quickly and with no problems. I sure hope my relationship with this insurance coverage stays this easy. :-)

Impressed but recently disappointed

It's a great coverage program and I appreciate the expense reimbursements. I was recently disappointed, however, when a claim was rejected due to a lapse in coverage. I was never made aware there was an issue and Nationwide automatically deducts from my account monthly for both dogs. Bailey's relapsed and not Hank's? This just happened recently and now I have to call you guys and sort all this out. Not looking forward to it.
