Pricey
Nationwide seems very pricey and takes forever to send out checks. So pricey we had to pick which dog we could get it for because we can't afford to have it for both.

Great service providing peace of mind.
Nationwide Pet has been so helpful!
Very easy to submit claims with no hassle.
It's reassuring to know I have a means to cover extra vet expenses as they arise.

Nationwide coverage saved my dogs life!
Without Nationwide’s excellent coverage, I would not be able to give my best friend the health care he needs and deserves to live a healthy life.

Pet Healthcare
While I am happy to have my pets insured, the time it takes for reimbursement has increased to about 1 month. The premiums are increasing yearly by a substantial dollar amount.
