Best Investment Ever

I have had my dog home for six months now, and in that time I've convinced 9 people in my life to get pet insurance through Nationwide. It is far and away the best thing I invested in when I brought home my Piper Kate. It is so easy to use and process claims. The timing is efficient. And the cost per month EASILY fit into my very small budget. I went with the Wellness Package as well, and I have to say, if you're getting insurance, get that too. It is worth it, 100%

Very happy to have peace of mind with pet insurance from Nationwide.

It has been great for me (owner of 4 dogs) to have pet insurance. I have not run into problems with getting paid and have had some issues with my pet that included her need for surgery which was paid well and I was very grateful I had the insurance. The reason I gave 9 stars and not 10 is because processing time for claims is a bit lengthly and would like to see that improve.
