Processing Claims
Processing claims takes way too long. I am seriously unimpressed with the slow pace of this procedure. Please rectify this.

Fast and Easy
Nationwide claims for my dog are easy and quick to fill out. I do wish that anal gland expressions were covered, however.

Definitely worth it to have
We first purchased pet insurance when we got our second dog. Our first dog has a serious illness and we did not have insurance, so the costs added up. We've now had Nationwide since around 2005, definitely comes in handy. Has saved lots of money in the long run.

Good experiences
We have had excellent experiences with two of our three dogs. We have insured all three of our bulldogs with Nationwide. I think our actions speak loudly, we've had three bulldogs - notoriously unhealthy dogs - and we've come back. We had issues with pre-existing conditions on one of our dogs, but everything has been great with the others. I strongly recommend working with Nationwide

Thank you!
I am so grateful for you all! My dog getting deathly ill earlier this year was the worst but every time I spoke with a representative, EVERY single one of them provided the kindest and exceptional service. The service has always been consistently wonderful and they’ve always been very sympathetic and wished all the best to me. I don’t see this kind of service these days anymore so please keep it up!!
