They do, but they shouldn't. Kangaroos and wallabies protected by Australian law, and are not permitted to be kept as pets in Australia. These animals cannot be domesticated. Within Australia, they may only be kept by a registered wildlife carer who has a licence. Sometimes, after caring for an injured kangaroo, it may be difficult to rehabilitate the animal back into the wild, and in these cases, the carer may keep the kangaroo on their property.
Wallabies and kangaroos are not sold commercially in Australia as pets. Apart from registered and regulated animal sanctuaries and some research institutions, only registered wildlife carers may tend ill or wounded native animals for a time. Many unregistered people will take in injured wildlife and call them their "pets": while this is a marvellous caring gesture, it is still illegal, and the animals are generally released as soon as they are able to fend for themselves. Animals which are injured or distressed (e.g. during bushfires or floods, or orphaned when the mother is hit by a car) should always be rescued. For the good of the animal it is better to notify the wildlife authorities as soon as possible.
There are some species which may be kept legally in Australia without a licence, and this varies from state to state. Kangaroos and wallabies are not among them.
