Nationwide has exceeded my expectations.

Filing a claim is super easy. I submit it with my phone and after a short review process the payment is deposited in my checking account. (The claim process should be this easy with my own healthcare policy). Our dog needed to be anesthesized to have a biopsy done and it was nice to know I had coverage. I didn’t need to get prior approval to get the claim covered. I just submitted the necessary documentation and the payment followed quickly.

Great customer service and timely payment of claims

very happy with our almost full year of insurance for our puppy who just turned 1. Nervous about the premium renewal, hoping it doesn't go up for the 2nd year.

Nationwide covered our pups knee surgery

This is the first pet we have opted for pet insurance for and we could not have made a better choice. While there is a 30 day lag between submitting the claim and being reimbursed the customer service portal is very informative about where we were in the process the whole time.
