I'm so thankful for this insurance plan!

I have two senior dogs who have become quite sick with age. Thanks to this insurance plan, I'm able to provide them with the best medical care possible. I'm confident that my fur babies will live out the rest of the lives comfortably and with their illnesses under control.

Claims take too long to process.

While I always appreciate being reimbursed for the expenses, it takes quite a while to received it. Most take 30 days or more. Would like to see it faster.

Great customer service

I love doing business with Nationwide. It's very easy to file a claim, and even easier to receive payment electronically. Having a Great Dane I knew it was important to have pet insurance. I've always been happy with the amount of my refunds, especially after TPLO (knee) surgery! And I really don't think the monthly cost is unreasonable. As long as I have a pet, I will have Nationwide insurance.
