Our Story

Hi I'm Monica, the founder of K9 Krew & Friends! I’m a mum to 2 teenagers, 2 Siamese cats and 2 dogs, a Chihuahua and a cheeky Pomchi! My whole life I have loved & been surrounded by animals, I guess this love originally came from my grandad who I grew up with!

​

As a child my grandma always had at least 2 dogs in our home, my grandad would always have rescue dogs where he worked and then would also feed the local stray dogs and cats there. In the countryside 30 mins from the town we lived in, we  also had a little homestead where we had all sorts of birds , bunnies, dogs, chickens we looked after and we also put out food for the stray dogs and cats of the neighbourhood there too! That is how I grew up!! Animals were our friends... and we as humans had a responsibility towards them, whether they were ours or not.

​

Dogs are my passion but I have also been very lucky to visit South Africa many times, visiting animal reserves where I had personal interactions with Dik Dik Antelopes, Ostriches, Elephants, Baby Lions, a Cheetah and saw lots of other animals on safari drives on protected reserves.​ I also used to regularly volunteer at a local animal shelter that rescues chickens, geese, rabbits, ferrets & other small animals.

I've always had pets throughout my life, many different dog breeds, also rabbits, other little rodents and cats. My life has always been caring for either people or animals, it's just in my nature!

​

When K9 Krew & Friends got started...

Things went well and as I started to get busier and busier with more requests, trusted members of my family started working with me to make sure we could cater for more furry friends to offer the level of service they all deserve.

​

Because for me, all animals should be cared for with love and attention... I wish I could be everywhere at once, care for & save all the animals in the world but sadly that isn't possible!, so this is the next best thing!
