✦ A Journey Born From Prayer
Born From Faith,
Built With Purpose
For years I worked at a veterinary practice, but the long hours meant I was missing the moments that matter most — time with my children. I wanted to be a fully present mom, always there for my kids. So I prayed and asked God to open a new door.
I didn’t just want another job. I wanted to do something truly different — something nobody in Namibia was doing in a specialised, dedicated way. Something meaningful and unique. And God answered that prayer.
In 2024, I officially opened The Holistic Pet, and I have never looked back.
“I believe God placed every animal in our care for a reason. It is our responsibility — and our privilege — to honour that by giving them the best, most natural life possible.”
— Jolandie Koen“He placed thoughts in my heart, and I began to research. As I learned, my own pets began to thrive. Not just survive — truly thrive. That transformation confirmed everything.”— Jolandie Koen · Founder, The Holistic Pet
