Best Pet Insurance Ever!

Our big-boy Ducky needed a major unexpected surgery. As a pet owner the worst feeling ever is to see you pet in pain! We paid for the surgery and have been nursing Ducky back to health. He is doing much better now and with the coverage we have from Nationwide we don't have to worry about the financial burden this surgery would have cost us. Nationwide was really on our side on this one! Thank you to everyone at Nationwide for their support and for their part in the recovery of our buddy.

Pet health insurance

I've had insurance for my pets for the past couple of years. I wondered if it was a huge waste, but decided to send in bills and see about the coverage. The insurance monies back were very good, and when one of my covered dogs died last year, although he had been seen, had dental care, and a month later passed, Nationwide returned some of the premium and even more with a lovely condolence note! I tell everyone how pleased I am with this company.

The wellness coverage is worth the price

We received reimbursement very quickly and it was what we expected. We are glad we purchased the insurance.

Easy access, claim turnaround

Excellent turn around in paying claims. I marked "Good" for coverage because I know that it could be better if I would upgrade. It has nothing to do with the bearing on the product itself. Overall I have been very pleased that I purchased the coverage. Thank you.
