Payers will be rewarded for their hard work in caring for the animals. Goats can be milked and players will receive two bottles of milk. This will certainly help if the Simmers are doing any Simple Life challenges in The Sims 4. Also, by building a strong bond with the pet, the Goat can help with gardening by eating any weeds.
The same thing happens when caring for a sheep. Simmers can shear their coat and benefit from the wool by selling or using it in craft projects. A strong friendship also allows the Sheep to help with gardening by eating insects.
