Officer Irene Aponte is a dedicated animal control professional . With  years of experience protecting the public and ensuring the welfare of domestic animals servicing NYC and Westchester County communities. With ACHT certification from NYC  she is committed to  humane enforcement, public education, and emergency  animal rescue, educating the community about  responsible pet ownership. 

I've volunteered with various animal organizations for the last 8 years. Every animal deserves to be happy and I believe  animals bring everyone happiness. Here, as the Volunteer Project Manager, I get to facilitate both those things!

 4 yrs ago I was contacted and asked if I would like to foster a kitten from Irene at MVAS . With no hesitation I replied yes and pick up this kitten we called Bella . I was given all supplies needed and had to bring her back to get spayed and vaccinated I already decided I was going to adopt her forever mine. Since then I support when I can through volunteer or foster.
