Excellent Coverage, reduces so much financial burden!

This pet insurance is the best around. I highly recommend it. I have had other insurances before and none of them compare to the coverage that you receive on this policy. Thank you Nationwide!

Thank goodness we have pet insurance!

So thankful that we have this insurance! When Roxi tore her cranial cruciate ligament, and we found out that she needed surgery, we were overwhelmed by the cost of the procedure. We submitted the claim and received the payment prior to the credit card payment was due! I only wish that Nationwide would reimburse claims more quickly and have an easier process for getting excluded conditions removed from policies after the designated period of time has passed.

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.
