Good service, just a bit slow

Nationwide has been a good provider for CJ's insurance care - I was feeling a little frustrated with this latest claim - took longer than I would think for processing.

The Best Coverage Ever

The customer service people are the best. Claims are processed accurately and very timely, I wish the vets office were as good.

Great comprehensive policy!

We have been so pleased with our Nationwide Pet Policy. We never expected to have to use it for anything major, but unfortunately, ended up in a situation where our pup needed surgery. Thank goodness for our insurance! We are much less stressed about calling the vet for littler things, too. Knowing we have insurance, we don't skimp on getting Lola the care she needs. Thank you for providing a wonderful service for our four-legged member of the family.

Insurance that Acts Like a Friend

Nationwide insurance has been nothing but wonderful while I care for my Berner boy’s health. Every interaction has been positive including claim submission, customer service questions, and claim response timeliness. I work in the healthcare profession (orthopedics), and dealing with insurance is often difficult for both providers and patients. My expectations were a bit jaded, but I’ve been so impressed, and truly feel like you care about my dog, and me. I will recommend Nationwide without hesitation, and appreciate everyone who helps make my experience the best. Thank you so much, Anne & Alder
