So happy I went with Nationwide!

My dog is relatively healthy but we wanted the full wellness package just in case. He hasn't had any complications or many health issues but seeing as it's our first year having him, we are still figuring out where to go for the best care and price. Nationwide has never questioned our decisions and have delivered on their policy. We're so happy with our choice and recommend them to all our friends who are dog parents!

Waiting until term ends to move elsewhere

Your claims process is overly paper based and hard to understand. Your coverage is limited, with some basic maintenance excluded. You have no app or easy way to check claims status and the website is antiquated.

I am very happy with everything so far. The claims process is pretty smooth other than a few bumps in the road with my first claims but that was just me figuring everything out.
