Peace of mind

Knowing I can take my pup to the vet and not have to worry about finances while I’m worried about her is priceless.

So thankful we had Insurance for Ni!

I wasn't sure about getting insurance on our young dog. Decided to do so for 2019 and so thankful I did! As puppies do, he ended up getting into something that required surgery and several appointments. He's doing much better now! Nationwide Pet Insurance was fabulous! I've already been reimbursed for my claims and everything was explained well. Took the stress out of the situation by knowing insurance covered so much of the cost.

Reasonable turn aroun

I appreciate the coverage provided by Nationwide....the only frustration I have had is in processing communication for claims. While the time is a little long, I understand the 30 days. But there is a frequent lack of information through that 30-day process and finding information is difficult. More clear communication on where claims stand and what is happening would be helpful. Right now, if the claim is rejected...I won't know until the end of the 30 days.

Monthly Cost

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.
