My 40 + Year Journey in Holistic Health for Myself & My Pets
Posted by Jewel on Mar 14, 2025
This blog post is a share about myself, my path and what I teach and believe in.
My legal name is Rhonda Jewel, But I just go by 'Jewel' to those close to me. I am the owner of Holistic Pet Care for those that don't know me. I am an an Animal Naturopath, a Holistic Health Practitioner, a Visionary/Mystic and a Holistic Alchemist. This is a pic of me and my Fur Family! Jazzy, Juniper, Joy, Justice and Jade. (My Pomeranian Juniper crossed over the rainbow bridge just last week, but she will always be my beloved Heart dog and will always be with us in Spirit! )
For over 40 years, I have been on a deeply personal and transformative holistic health and ever evolving spiritual journey—not only for myself but for the animals I love. My path has always been guided by a commitment to natural healing, vibrational wellness, spiritual and intuitive awareness for the body, mind and spirit. I believe in supporting health from the inside out, rather then relying on conventional medical systems that often operate from a paradigm of fear and disease.
Instead of subjecting my body—or my animals—to invasive screenings, pharmaceuticals, or chemical-laden treatments, I choose a different path. I trust in the innate intelligence of the body, frequency medicine, and nature’s remedies to maintain balance and harmony. This philosophy has shaped every aspect of my life and my work, leading me to Holistic Pet Care, where I now share these principles with pet parents seeking a more natural way to care for their animals.
A Life Surrounded by Animals & Natural Healing
My love for animals began in childhood. I was surrounded by a variety of pets—dogs, cats, horses, ponies, donkeys, a pet deer, a raccoon, birds, parrots, fish, lizards, and even a pet monkey! At just seven years old, I got my first horse, and this early bond with animals sparked a lifelong fascination with natural animal care. I was a horse girl from the earliest memories.
Over 40 years ago, I began my career as a Holistic Health Practitioner in California where I was certified as an HHP in San Diego in 1979/80, where I learned holistic health principles and practices. I studied various holistic modalities, including energy healing, bodywork, herbal medicine, and nutrition, to promote overall wellbeing and support clients on their holistic health journeys.
Eventually I blended my passion for animals with my growing knowledge of homeopathy, herbs, and raw nutrition. In 1997, I launched my first holistic pet care business, specializing in Veterinary Homeopathy and Natural Rearing.
During my time on a horse and herb farm in Ashland, Oregon, I immersed myself in the world of raw foods, herbal medicine, and holistic healing for pets—long before these practices were widely accepted. These early experiences solidified my mission: to offer truly natural, effective health solutions for pets and their people.
Discovering the Power of Colloidal Silver
One of the most pivotal moments in my journey was discovering colloidal silver. After using it for my own health, I began to witness its incredible benefits for pets. My beloved Pomeranian, Juniper, experienced profound improvements, which inspired me to make this powerful natural remedy accessible and affordable to other pet owners.
In 2013, I launched Holistic Pet Care online, with colloidal silver becoming our signature product. Today, it remains one of the most versatile and effective natural solutions for supporting pet health.
Empowering Pet Parents Through Knowledge
Holistic Pet Care is more than just a business—it is my life’s work. I believe that empowered, healthy pet parents raise healthier, happier, high Vibe pets, which is why I am committed to sharing knowledge about raw feeding, homeopathy, herbal medicine, and energy healing.
My expertise spans:
Animal nutrition – Raw feeding, species-appropriate diets
Homeopathy – Natural remedies for healing & prevention
Herbal medicine – Using nature’s pharmacy for wellness
Reiki, Healing Touch, TTouch & behavioral psychology – Healing through energy, touch and understanding
Advanced healing technologies – Frequency medicine & vibrational wellness
Every product, recommendation, and blog post comes from years of research and hands-on experience—always with the goal of helping you raise your pet in the healthiest, most natural way possible.
Why I Don’t Offer Phone Calls or Private Consultations
I truly appreciate the love and support from my customers, and I know many of you would love to connect with me personally. However, I have made the conscious decision to keep my business small, high-vibe, and manageable—one that allows me to stay aligned with a conscious, intentional lifestyle rather than turning it into a large-scale operation.
Because I handcraft my products in small, high-frequency batches, I simply don’t have the time or capacity to take phone calls or offer one-on-one consultations. I also don’t heavily promote my other products because my primary focus has always been creating HighVibe Colloidal Silver. The other remedies I offer were always meant to be a sideline, not the main focus of my business.
If I wanted to expand, I would need to move into a factory setting, producing on a much larger scale—and I’ve made the clear decision that this is not the path for me. I want to keep my work intentional, pure, and energetically aligned rather than turning it into a business that prioritizes growth over quality.
So while I may not offer private consultations, I have created an abundance of free resources on my website here at HolisticPetCare.com, to help guide you in raising your pet naturally. My mission is to empower you with knowledge so that you can feel confident in caring for your animals the holistic way.
Living in Alignment with Vibrational Health
I find this philosophy to be highly effective, and it’s something I teach, practice, and strive to live by every day. While no one is perfect, the more I align with high-frequency living, natural healing, and intuitive care, the more it resonates deeply with me.
As I grow older, I continue to shed outdated beliefs and embrace a new way of being—one rooted in sovereign health, self-awareness, and connection to nature. This same philosophy extends to the way I care for animals. Our pets are energetic beings, just like us, and they thrive when given pure, natural, high-vibrational care.
If you are on a journey to raise your pet holistically, know that you are not alone. My mission is to provide support, guidance, and the highest-quality natural remedies to help you give your pet a long, vibrant, and healthy life—naturally.
I am available to answer questions and give support through our online chat on the website. I get the ding message everytime someone asks a question and can answer pretty quickly even while working.
Please don't hesitate to use the chat if you want to connect.
Thank you for being part of this journey.
Many Blessings,
Jewel and the J Pack at Holistic Pet Care
