Owner, sales assistant

Suzanne Luce

Suzanne is originally from Ottawa, Canada where she worked as a vet nurse and also spent several years working for a local pet store running the small animal and reptile departments.

Her love of animals was evident right from a young age, when she used to bring home any stray creatures she found! This love never dissipated and has led her to running a vet clinic and opening For Pets Sake.

Suzanne gets a real kick out of helping people enjoy their pets. A qualified vet nurse herself and an avid pet owner, Suzanne has cared for numerous animals throughout her life including dogs, cats, birds, fish, rabbits, lizards and turtles. 


 

Sales assistant

Kelsey Sullivan

Kelsey joined our team in October 2021 and has fast developed into a wonderful salesperson!  Kelsey's background is in wildlife rescue, and she volunteers for the Barossa Wildlife Rescue group, caring for all sorts of different orphaned and injured native animals. It is not uncommon to find a Joey or two hanging out in the store on Kelsey's days!  

She is a caring and empathic person and her dedication to the native fauna is admirable.  That care comes through in her passion for helping owners find the best for their pets.

Kelsey is a vibrant and cheerful person and lights up the room when she is in the store.  We love having her as part of our team!
