Appreciate the help

We're glad that Nationwide came through to help us out with unexpected vetbills as we learned out dog had had a couple teeth require extraction, and a abcess in his mouth. The financial payment helped us tremendously as we had other unexpected vet bills for another of our dogs that month.

Great coverage at a good price.

Although insurance can be an added monthly expense, it is definitely priceless when needed. I have a $100 annual deductible and 90% reimbursement on covered items. I’d rather pay monthly than to be hit with a huge expense if a serious accident or illness occurs.

Excellent insurance plan

Knowing that we'll always have pets in our home, it is comforting to know that we'll always be able to provide them with complete veterinarian care. This is in part because we want the best for our pets, and because we have insurance coverage through Nationwide. Thank you Nationwide for offering plans that fit our pets lives and our budget.

Great company, really helps with costly procedures

Nationwide is a great company to work with. This is my 3rd year insuring my now senior dog. Having insurance really helps with costly procedures. I highly recommend.

Even acupuncture is covered

Because acupuncture is covered on Olive's plan, she is feeling much better and is a happier and less stressed dog. I was surprised to find this is a covered procedure. She no longer needs pain medication because the acupuncture is working so well for her.
