Nationwide is great - the best customer service, I post on facebook and tell everyone about them.

OUTSTANDING - I recommend Nationwide to everyone - the customer service agents are always there to help. I have used them for years and have been approached by other insurance companies - THERE IS NO WAY I WOULD CHANGE. This is by far the best pet insurance out there.

So grateful for Nationwide!

I recommend Nationwide to all my fellow pet owners. It can make the difference between saving your pet in an emergency - to having to say good bye. This happened to me recently and I am beyond grateful. The speed and way they handled my claim was amazing.

Why have I never had Nationwide Insurance for my pet before?

Our cat, Bob T Cat, is the first animal we have ever had with insurance. I always thought it was a waste of money because nothing would be covered. Boy was I wrong! I am amazed at what items his insurance covers and how quickly the claims are processed and paid. The ability to get payments electronically is also a blessing. I will never own another pet without Nationwide insurance and would highly recommend it for anyone that owns a pet.

When my Vet said surgery, I knew we were covered and didn't worry about cost.

When the Vet said TPLO surgery, I knew we were covered and didn't worry about the cost. Once I filed the claim, I got an email stating the claim will be reviewed. It was no more than 10 days later I received my money electronically, I have made claims before for another family pet and again swift and prompt service. The way in which you file is easy, it takes less than 5 minutes to file a claim.

Thank God for Insurance!

2018 so far crazy year for us. 2nd year with Nationwide and THANK GOD! We have 2 dogs that are our children and knowing nationwide they are in the BEST SAFE HANDS!!! Had other insurance that didn't cover nearly as much as Nationwide. Vets are expensive everywhere and anywhere. Recently had both boys teeth cleaning and our bill was like nothing after getting reimbursed from nationwide and it was pretty fast too. The vet found a tumor on one of my boys!!!! Tumor as in CANCER! I was devastated and a basket case. My baby has cancer. We had to act fast and get biopsied and removed all like in same week. Meds were all day around the clock. ICU care overnight on day of surgery. Specialist took over cause it was on the face and it was reconstructive. I was in pure hell waiting for test results and kept saying to my hubby THANK God for Insurance !!!! After all said and done from just surgery point over $6k!... Thank God for insurance ....our bill was @ $1000.00 after getting reimbursed. It literally saved us and our Boy!!!! He is now Cancer free!. I could not say enough good things about Nationwide insurance. But I just showed you. I have recommended only this insurance to all my pet lovers and some HAVE switched and are also grateful and see huge savings with nationwide. It's the best when it comes to pet insurance. I did huge research on insurance for pets back 3 yrs ago and i'm ecstatic that we found Nationwide and it was affordable as well. More pets more discount given. So easy to process claims and get $$ back quicker than other companies. Do yourself a favor and try for 1 year and u will see the difference. Pet care nowadays are out of control & insurance is now NEEDED so you don't go broke. Checkups are pricey and lab work or even xrays...forgetaboutit. GET NATIONWIDE!...it's a must
