Thank you so much for taking the financial burdon out of the picture and giving me peace of mind.

I am going through a very difficult and heartbreaking time with my beautiful brindle pit mix, Kumiko. It has been such a relief and I am so grateful to have the financial burden removed from the picture.

Beneficial but timely

After adopting two 6 year old dogs earlier this year and taking them to their initial vet / vaccine visit, I was recommended to take them in for dental work. In April I took them in for their dental visit where they needed teeth extracted. I submitted my claim just a few days later. After a couple weeks I was asked to submit more paperwork on my dogs to verify their vet visit - which put the claim into a 30 day review. After the 30 days went by I still had to follow up with more phone calls. It took 2 and a half months to get the claim completed.

Wish this had been around for all my others!!

We have had such great service with Nationwide for our pets! I wish that the service had been available years ago for other pets as well!! So easy to put in a claim and any dealings we have had to do over the phone (for questions, etc.) have been fantastic as well.

Comforting to know Bonito can receive care she needs. Website could use an upgrade

Once received, the claim processing went smoothly. The website could use an upgrade to be more user-friendly and allow submission of claims without requiring documents to be printed first, then completed, scanned and e-mailed for processing. Navigation on the site is a little confusing. Overall, a good experience.

ONE THING YOU MUST DO!

You folks are the most efficient, caring and fair people in your entire industry, bar none. The one thing you must do is advertise that you provide pet insurance. You do plenty of advertising for all your other coverages but never a word about pets. Let's face it, people melt when they see pictures of pets, especially being cared for. And, just think how many pets you might just get adopted by highlighting them. Please, really think about adding it to your tv ads. I have recommended your insurance to every pet owner I have the chance to talk to. Most didn't even know such policies were available. So, come on!
