Nationwide Pet Insurance is Amazing!

I love Nationwide pet insurance! We signed up for this program as soon as we got our puppy Shadow and it has been an amazing experience. There's no better feeling than getting 90% of what you paid back after a hefty vet bill. We have had no issues with claims or communication with Nationwide and it has definitely made our experience as puppy-parents SO much easier! Customer for life!

Easy, Quick Claims

This is our first dog that we purchased insurance for, after having very high expenses for the others. We have the full plan, including wellness and for the first year, has more than paid for itself. Claims are quick and easy and there was no issue with covering the neutering, vaccinations, and preventative medications. Glad to have it!

Will never own another dog without insuring through Nationwide!

My French Bulldog is the first dog that I've ever owned myself. Sure my family has owned dogs in the past, but they were never insured. Since I was making a large investment in the breed of dog itself, I definitely wanted to make sure I had insurance coverage on him from the day I picked him up from the breeder (because you never know what can happen)! Well, my sweet puppy has been through quite a tough road the first year of his little life and I would not have been able to afford his care if it had not been for the insurance with Nationwide. My french bulldog will always have coverage, and I will insurance all of my future dogs too. I cannot thank nationwide enough for their coverage, the responsiveness, and high quality services.

Great process, fast payment! Highly Recommend

This was such an easy process! Our 2-year old golden retriever had to have emergency surgery and then got an infection. He was in and out of the emergency vet for a week. We had numerous ER vet bills that equaled well over $4,000. Nationwide's process is super easy to submit and we had our payment in less than a month!! Highly recommend to anyone with pets!
