Such a relief!

My dog was recently attacked by a vicious dog while on a walk. Nationwide paid the entire visit in full, and contacted me to make sure he was ok. One less thing to worry about. Thank you!

Rates increase significantly each year

This insurance was a good value when my dog was a puppy. I could relax and know that whatever came up I could handle it financially and not have to worry about the cost vs her health. My dog is 4 years old and each year the rates have gone up...this year they went up 18%! I now am questioning whether I can afford it for much longer. Very disappointed.

Thank you for being there for me!

I have two Eurasiers. One was recently diagnosed with Glaucoma, both eyes. I could see he was in pain and the eye therapy was getting quite expensive. I chose to have the operation and replace his eyes with prostheses. I submitted the claim and, to my surprise, Nationwide covered all but $100 of this operation. I actually cried when I got the check. Thank you for helping. Doris
