Excellent coverage and easy to use

We switched from another pet insurance carrier to Nationwide and I couldn’t be happier. The process for filing a claim is incredibly easy and fast using the related app and claims are processed quickly. We had a recurring issue with our dog’s eyes and we were able to get the best care for him with less stress surrounding the cost of care. I regularly recommend Nationwide for pet insurance.

Great don’t believe all these others

I switched from a very popular plan when I found out it didn’t pay the vet?! Huh?? I had already had him in for an ear infection so we got a pre-existing condition. But they said they would review at 6 months. I called at 6 months to the day and they reviewed and within a week to maybe 10 days I can’t recall it was removed!! True to the word. I have been happy! We have visited vets in other states for dehydration from throwing up and not had any issues with coverage as expected.

Super fast and easy claim processing

Last September we found an abandoned kitten in our backyard and when we took her in and got her checked by our vet, our vet suggested pet insurance. After reviewing the different options out there we went with Nationwide - we couldn't be happier. It was very easy to file claims and they were processed fast. Big paws, er, thumbs up!
