Best vet insurance ever.
This is the only insurance I have ever had that does what they say they will do! I plan to be a client for life.

It has been great to have insurance but his insurance went up from $40 to $63 which is a huge jump up. I could understand $5-10
It's been great having insurance but I just got notice that his insurance is going up from $40 to $63 a month. I can see $5-10 increase but $23 extra a month has made me wonder if insurance is really worth it...I am a single mother of a disabled child and I got our dog to help my son with his anxiety and to have a buddy. Asking that much more I am swaying on canceling...

Nationwide is extremely dependable and I’m letting everyone know.
When I got my cat, I wanted the best I could offer her. When I discovered that pet insurance existed, I didn’t hesitate getting her coverage. It was one of the best decisions I made in her case. Shortly after, she fell ill and was hospitalized. I was skeptical, but Nationwide came through. I’m now a lifetime member.

Great customer service and quick, helpful response!
I was expecting a troublesome process when submitting multiple claims for my pup after some unexpected dental issues. However, the online submission process was quick and straightforward, and the claims were processed much more quickly than expected. Before I knew it, I had been reimbursed for all claims! Wow, this was simple and stress free! I highly recommend Nationwide if you care about your pet!
