About our Founder/President:
Sherrie Krulic has been involved in animal rescue since 2002. Animals have always been a huge part of Sherrie’s life. She was born with a passion to help them in any way possible. Sherrie has worked tirelessly as a volunteer for numerous shelters and rescues throughout Florida, Arizona and Utah. Her commitment and network run deep. She has assisted with rescue transports, reuniting lost pets with their owners, adoption events, fundraisers, bottle-feeding/fostering day-old puppies, home visits, walking shelter dogs, feral cat Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR), spay/neuter/vaccine/microchip clinics and natural disaster relief for more than two decades. Sherrie has also worked as a veterinary assistant.
Sherrie’s most memorable and life-changing experience in the animal rescue world was when Big Bend Disaster Animal Response Team (BBDART) in Tallahassee, FL partnered with the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) in 2005, after Hurricane Katrina made landfall and decimated the Gulf Coast. Sherrie was working as a Criminal Investigator at the time. Sherrie spent weeks along the Gulf Coast assisting with the animal relief effort there. It was an amazing experience to witness so many people, from so many different states come together with one mission: To Help Save Animals. Seeing the love, cooperation and teamwork between complete strangers has been one of the most inspiring and uplifting moments in her life.
Sherrie believes, first and foremost, that spaying and neutering animals is the only way we can possibly begin to make any sort of impact on the animal overpopulation crisis. There’s simply not enough good homes for them all. Rescues and shelters are constantly in a never-ending battle with pet stores and breeders. They are breeding and selling faster than we can save them. It’s a vicious cycle and the innocent animals are the ones who suffer. If we can reduce the number of animals, we can better manage, support, protect and enrich the lives of the ones who already exist.
