Saves me a lot of money since my pup developed skin infections/allergies

Since Remey was a pup they have Nationwide has saved me a lot of money on 3 emergency vet visits and several other occasions for skin disorders and allergies. Each time I go to the vet I have them fill out the claim form then fax them in. Usually about 2 weeks later I receive a check in the mail. I am always telling people whom get a puppy or in my dog groups about how good this insurance is.

If only our human health insurance was so easy and straightforward!

We have had Nationwide for our dog since she we brought her home, and it has been wonderful. We have primarily used the preventive coverage, but she also got emergently sick once, and Nationwide covered per our policy without problems or delays. Any requests for additional information were understandable and reasonable. I only wish all of our insurance policies were as simple to understand and provided such timely coverage!

So glad that I have Nationwide!

I have so enjoyed having Nationwide Pet Insurance. When I was in need for help with my dog, the VetHelpline was there. Gave great advice. Have never had an issue with a claim. Claims are processed reasonably quickly. No complaints.

You can't have three dogs and NOT have insurance.

I went from never having pets, to having a cat and then a dog. One dog. But he died and what did I do? I got three more dogs; two Cocker Spaniels and a Jack Russell, Chihuahua mix. One day when they were puppies and I was at the vet getting puppy shots, I saw a lady hand an insurance card to the staff. I never knew anything like that ever existed, but since it did and I have three now and we all know what vet bills look like, I got the info from the vet, then went home and signed up. It has been 3 years now and I have never regretted my decision to insure my pack, nor have I felt a need to check into other insurance companies. NATIONWIDE IS GREAT!!!!!!!!!Signed, Proud Mom of three.
