Bring along your good-natured pet and spend time chatting with people living in care at our residential aged care home in Scone. You’ll see what a difference your furry friend can make.

As you're bringing your pet into an aged care environment with frail and elderly residents, we ask that your pet is • Calm, patient and gentle in nature • Up-to-date with vaccinations and treatment of worms and fleas • Nails should be short and blunt. Freshly cuts nails can be sharp if not filed down. • Dogs should be kept on a lead at all times.
