Very good support for major surgery!

Nationwide provided very good support for a major surgery. Our dog had two herniated disks and needed back surgery. The vet said that if we hadn't done the surgery, she probably would have become paralyzed. Having Nationwide Insurance helped us to make our decision knowing that the majority of the cost would be covered by insurance, and allowed us to make the best decision for our dog's well being. The surgery was a success and our little dachsund has made a full recovery.

Kudos to Nationwide!

Nationwide has continued to provide efficient, timely and courteous care to my pet issues for over 3 years. I can always call a customer service rep and get someone on the line quickly to answer my questions and guide me through any decisions that need to be made for Guideaux's coverage. I appreciate the staff and choices of policies that meet our needs. thank you.

I have peace of mind knowing I don’t have to make a decision NOT to treat my cat because of financial cost.

I always feel the folks at Nationwide care.

River ultimately had to be put down due to the progress of juvenile cancer

The response to questions and turn around on payment has been acceptable. However with River's death we'll obviously be cancelling the policy. It was a very good investment under the unfortunate circumstance
