When her children all grew up and started their own families she moved back to be closer to grandchildren and family. When she's not at work she will be at home with her husband and three very large dogs and three cats or you might even find her on a hockey field saving the goals!

Alison
Head of Reception
Read bio
Alison has been at PVH since 2020. She is the smiling face that greets you at reception or answers your calls. She has studied animal science at Western Sydney University and has previously worked for a call centre for Westfield before finding her passion with animals. Her favourite part of the day is giving treats to all the sweet dogs that come to visit us. At home Alison is a keen reader and enjoys drawing and playing games or playing with her hyperactive but cuddly kelpie named Don.
Currently she is Fur-Mum to cavaliers Ethel and Mavis. Their favourite things to do are run free on the beach and snuggle on the couch. Lionel the axolotl is a new addition, he (maybe she, we don’t know yet) likes swimming, floating and staring.
