Appreciate the quickness in reimbursing us for the out-of-pocket vet bills

Thanks so much for the timely turnaround... so helpful when you have a sick pet and have mounting Vet bills. I'm happy to report that Lucy is on the mend, and we have turned the corner to feeling good!

Ease of mind

We brought Teddy in and as usual our claim was paid timely and the process went very smoothly. I recommend you to anyone and everyone who asks about pet insurance. I recently changed from payroll deduction to direct debit (after.losing my job due to Covid-19) and the rep who helped me was wonderful

I am happy to have insurance but I find the process difficult at times

I do recommend having pet insurance, however the claim process is difficult. I have had to jump through many hoops place many calls to get my claims processed. I think now that I have things set up, it should run smoother. I am hopeful. I am willing to keep the insurance and see.

Nationwide is the BEST!

You guys are awesome! The services are impeccable, as I have not had ONE issue with any claims. It is a huge relief to have you guys on my dogs side! We, obviously, treat our dogs as a part of our family and Nationwide has helped make that possible. Unfortunately we do have a "problem child", but to know that we are not only covered, but also supported by you guys is great. Thanks so much!!
