We work hard for our customers and their pets because we love what we do. We understand the bond between an avid hunter and his retriever, and we don’t think the “Crazy Cat Lady” is crazy. We are those people and make no excuses for it! How do we do it? By creating a vibrant and active environment within our team. At RSC, teammates take the privilege of serving pets, people, and community very seriously, but we have a great time doing so. Each project is approached with an attitude of enthusiasm, resilience, adaptability, and teamwork. We hope you’ll join us in our goal to reach as many pet lovers as we can. Are you up for the challenge?
