They cover hardly anything
I have paid a fortune to Nationwide over the last several years - they barely cover anything. I get checks for ridiculously small amounts of money which cover hardly any of the expenses and bills that the average 13 year old dog will incur.

Love that I can count on you!
As I am walking through the aging dog experience for the first time, it is so comforting knowing that Nationwide is there for us! Would highly recommend them, great customer service, great coverage, great peace of mine!

GET THE RECORD STRAIGHT!
Clearly, you people don't know what you are doing! You sent me a lovely inquiry about Cooper's recent vet visit via email. The vet visit WAS NOT for Cooper, but, for my OREO, who passed away on 1/27/18.
I have been with Nationwide (Veterinary Pet) for a very long time, before pet insurance became fashionable! I was always impressed with the service and speed of claim processing. This time, someone definitely dropped the ball and totally messed up 2 final claims which I had submitted for her and NOW THIS! Maybe Nationwide should either check their employee's work to ensure that these upsetting mistakes don't occur. I just lost my pet- to add MORE frustration and grief to the situation by receiving erroneous claim determinations and inquiries from Nationwide simply complicates things! More compassion definitely is warranted on your part!

So glad i chose Nationwide for my fur baby
I was recommended by a friend to try this insurance after my puppy cost me $750 for an emergency vet visit. I reviewed several companies and found that Nationwide would work best for me. I chose the Wellness plan. The amount I would pay in a year would pay for itself if i kept up with her immunizations and check ups including flea, tick and heartworm treatments. I would also be covered if i had another emergency visit. I got the 100% wellness plan and I will definitely refer Nationwide as a premier insurer for anyone's precious fur baby.
