The ease of filing a claim has got SO much easier! I am glad I have pet insurance!

The new claim process is SO much easier and quicker payments! I am glad I have insurance! When you don't have a lot of money it helps you make those difficult decisions sometimes when it comes down to money :-(

Best experience, Nationwide is there when you need

Nationwide is the best pet insurance I’ve ever had. I can take my dog to any vet (prefer experience with IG, due to lean body low fat) especially when anesthetizing, critical they have years of experience working with IG’s special needs. As I have searched to find the best vet with IG experience Nationwide supports us with care. So grateful to have Nationwide by our side! 🐕‍🦺

Really Check into other plans before making a decision

They're very expensive and do not cover many things that other insurance companies do for similar pricing. I did not insure my second dog with Nationwide. I've insured every dog I've ever owned with VPI - changed very much since Nationwide took over. So I moved on :(

Thank you Nationwide for caring about our family!

Never had a problem with claims with Nationwide. Forms are easy to find and claims are easy to submit. I receive clear and timely communications to let me know what the status of my claim is including detailed information about coverage. It really does help to know that you have a little extra support and money coming back when you have to spend money to care for your family member. I would highly recommend Nationwide for their coverage and costs.
