Wish I had signed up sooner!

I had illness insurance with another provider for the first year I got my dogs and Nationwide is 100x's better. Now I have sickness AND wellness visits and it costs me the same price. Submitting claims is super easy and I receive reimbursement within 30 days of submitting a claim. I tell every pet owner to get a quote now.

Worth the investment

I hesitated to get pet insurance because I assumed it would be like "human" insurance where you would deny everything you possibly could. I purchased the plan that covers everything at 90%. I have been impressed with the payments and service so far. Thank you!

You made this event easier on us.

Our cat Felix is getting older. He's always been an explorer and an adventurer, but these days he's more content to sit on a lap. This last event was an emergency trip to the local vet as he was very ill. They had to really dig in to see what was wrong because he tends to hide it well. Turns out he had an infection in his digestive track. The vet was stellar, and Nationwide made the claim process very easy for us. It helped to have the policy in place as we were more confident working with the vet to diagnose his problem. His brother died 2 years ago early, and we didn't want that to happen again. Thanks for making this so easy.
