I have known Rita for over 9 years now and over the time that I have known her both of us always have had dogs and other pets. I have seen the how sweet and caring she is with her animals, she treats them like members of her family, always making sure they were alright healthwise she made sure they had food and water. she would bring them inside if the weather was bad and even though she was and still is pretty busy with school and other events she makes sure to always spend some time with her pups. She also has helped me with my dogs when my dogs were sick and when my german shepherd had her first litter. She's really passionate about animals, and I believe that that passion and the love she holds for them make her a really good candidate for this job.
