The heart behind the screen

Driven by passion and unconditional loyalty

Jico Naidoo is the creator behind Rocky & Rani. For him, the dogs are far more than content creators: they are family. He started with a simple wish, to capture the joy, humour and unconditional love that dogs bring into our lives.

What began as everyday moments at home in Durban grew into a loyal community of people looking for wholesome, genuine content, including many who can't keep pets of their own. Combining playful storytelling with relatable everyday moments, Jico, Rocky and Rani bring humour, warmth and influence to TikTok and Facebook.
