Nationwide is on MY side

Nationwide has been so good to us. Monster, my 11 yr Yorkie-Chihuahua mix, has had an ACL surgery and a lot of other issues. Nationwide has covered his medical expenses. Nationwide is definitely a great choice for us.

I'd never own a pet without it!

I would never take on the responsibility of owning a pet without making sure they are covered from head to tail with the greatest pet insurance.

Great claims process

The claims process is awesome. Done electronically and paid directly to my designated account. Nationwide has been great whenever dealing with them on my dogs.

Good

I have been with nationwide for 12 plus years and am very pleased with the coverage. I recently purchased a puppy and nationwide had comparable coverage with other insurance company but also offered a discount for adding a new pet, and that helped me decide to stay with nationwide with the new pup!

Peace of Mind

Teddy was pretty sick and it took a few very expensive tests to figure out what was going on. He still has a bit of a hill to climb, as we are now trying to find out the right medication for his issues. Through it all, just knowing that we didn't have to think twice about the expense of all the tests, knowing that there would be some sort of reimbursement from Nationwide, really gave us peace of mind. We would have spent whatever was necessary to help our boy, but it is nice to know that Nationwide is there for us.
