🧘‍♀️ What is holistic pet care and why are more pet parents choosing it?

As a pet parent, you know that health isn’t just about pills and prescriptions. It’s about your furry one feeling balanced, happy, and whole. That’s where holistic pet care comes in—a growing trend that more and more pet lovers are embracing.

And guess what? While traditional pet insurance often ignores it, Kanguro covers it. Because we believe every pet deserves care that looks at the full picture—mind, body, and environment.

🌿 What is holistic pet care?

Holistic pet care is a wellness approach that treats the whole animal, not just the symptoms. Instead of focusing only on one issue, it considers your pet’s:

• 🧠 Mental and emotional state

• 🐾 Physical health and lifestyle

• 🏡 Environment and daily habits

• 
  

Holistic vets may combine modern veterinary science with alternative therapies to create a custom plan. It’s all about balance, prevention, and quality of life.

🧪 Examples of holistic therapies

Here are some common holistic treatments pet parents are turning to:

• Herbal medicine: Natural remedies for digestion, anxiety, and skin conditions.

• Nutritional therapy: Tailored diets that support energy, weight, and immunity.

• Chiropractic or massage therapy: Pain relief and improved mobility.

• Energy healing or reiki: Promotes calm and emotional balance.

• Aromatherapy: Essential oils for stress reduction (always under vet guidance).

These treatments are often used alongside conventional medicine—not instead of it—and must be supervised by a licensed veterinarian to be eligible under Kanguro’s plan.

❌ What other insurers don’t want to cover...

Let’s be real: traditional pet insurers often skip holistic options altogether. If it’s not a pill or a surgery, it’s not in the plan.

But at Kanguro, we know that healing doesn’t always come in a bottle. That’s why we include holistic pet care when it’s recommended by a licensed vet and related to a covered condition. No extra fees. No surprises.

✅ What Kanguro covers

At Kanguro, we include:

• Holistic and alternative therapies performed by or under supervision of licensed vets

• Treatments connected to a covered accident or illness

• Up to 90% reimbursement

• No extra cost to add this to your plan

  
  

💬 Every pet is different—and so is their care

Some pets need surgery. Others need calming support or digestive balance. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all insurance.

Kanguro supports you in making the best decisions for your furry family—no judgment, just options.

🐶 Wellness is more than medicine

When it comes to your pet, treating the whole being—not just the symptom—can lead to a happier, healthier life.
