a life saver!

I recently had an issue where my dog had a ruptured disc in his neck, I didn't realize dogs got such a thing! it took several visits and tests but they finally diagnosed him with c4-c5 disc rupture. He was in a lot of pain and was having trouble walking and moving. He had the surgery and he is almost back to normal. I am so thankful that I signed him up!

best investment

When we decided to add an additional family member, our Great Dane. We did a lot of reading up on all the pros and cons. The Pros out weighed the Cons by a large margin. thanks to Nationwide his Health would not be an issue. it's great coverage.He was actually covered 2 weeks before we got him from our breeder which was comforting.Nationwide has Fast reimbursement and filing forms. He has given us a couple of scares this last year, but with his coverage going to the vet does not have to thought about twice. Nationwide even calls us to see how he is doing. We did actually use the 24/7 vet advise and that was extremely helpful!!

Worth every penny

I have the whole-wellness plan for my puppy and it is worth every penny (which even then isn't much monthly) and gives me the relief in knowing I can make the best decisions for him without worry of debt. We get 90% back on all claims which makes those pesky vet visits and routine check-ups a whole lot easier on the wallet. Not to mention the processing for claims is quick!

Have been SO impressed!

There is always a question as to whether or not having your pet insured is necessary. I am so thankful that I have decided to insure Diesel and certain that Nationwide was the best choice for me. I was reluctant to insure him using the complete coverage, but did so. Though it is a bit pricey each month it has paid for itself with a recent bad illness. Nationwide processed claim without issue and reimbursed as they state 90%. I am so thankful I chose Nationwide.

Peace of mind

I am so glad I have Nationwide for my pet insurance. They made the enrollment so easy. The customer service reps are knowledgeable and extremely helpful. I have had to submit 2 claims already and I received my reimbursement very quickly. I am now going to sign up to have any future claims directly deposited to my account. It's so easy! Thank you for giving me peace of mind regarding the health of my dog.
