Highly recommend Nationwide

Excellent customer service. They have been fantastic to work with. They give great explanations for billing questions. I recommend Nationwide to all my friends. I have never had any issues with reimbursement at all. They will email you with updates and even send an email follow up to check on your loved one.

Great reassurance

This was such a good decision! Although I have a relatively healthy dog, this has saved me money twice for issues with my pup. Gives me a great sense of comfort to know I don’t have to worry about making the right choice for my pet’s health due to financial constraints.

Peace of mind

It is such a relief to know that our dog's illnesses, accidents, and preventative care are covered. When I am worried about her, at least I don't need to worry about how I will pay for the vet visit!
