You don’t know how much you have helped me and my Luke.

If it were not for Nationwide, there is no way I could have afforded to help my Luke. He had spine surgery and still requires a lot of physical therapy and acupuncture. He also needed a wheelchair and paw lifts. He is my heart and you have made it possible for him to have a wonderful life. Thank you.

We LOVE Nationwide Pet Insurance!

We absolutely love Nationwide Pet Insurance! The claim process is simple and best of all is speaking with an actual person when calling about a claim or coverage questions. We are so thrilled to be a part of Nationwide! Thank you for being there for our four legged loved ones! Tom and Lisa Buckle (Obi)

Ease of Use and Helpful Customer Service Reps when Needed

Koda has been insured since we first brought him home as a puppy. I am fortunate that he has been a very healthy dog to this point (11 years old) with only fairly minor issues requiring care. Fortunately I have never had to test my insurance plan in a severe emergency or severe illness, so I can't speak to that. What I can speak to is that the claims process is very straight forward and easy to obtain reimbursement and the times that I have either called with questions or spoken to a customer service rep regarding renewal/coverages, it has been a very pleasant experience. The representatives have been knowledgeable, helpful and have even saved my money on my renewal policy. I would not hesitate to insure my next puppy with Nationwide.
