I'm so thankful for Nationwide Pet Insurance!

I have always thought of my dogs as healthy but my sweet, 10 year old girl Khloe (a Chihuahua) started having problems with her back leg out of the blue. Turns out it was a torn CCL (like an ACL knee injury that I think of skiers and snowboarders getting!). After I paid my $250 deductible, I got a check back for 90% of the cost of her expensive surgery. It was a great day getting that insurance check in the mail! Khloe is doing great and back to her old (young-at-heart), playful self!

Covered my pet in time of need

I was a bit concerned initially as to how much of the surgery would be covered by the insurance. Thankfully , I have never has to have my pet have surgery before. I live in NY and vet rates are typically much higher on customary preventative procedures and not fully covered. However, I was very grateful when I was fully reimbursed for her injury , covering my case at 100%. Thanks for providing me with peace of mind. I highly recommend Nationwide for over 7 years.
