Exotic Bird Care & Parrot Sitting
We offer dedicated exotic bird care and parrot sitting in your own home, allowing your bird to stay relaxed in a familiar environment while you’re away. Visits can be arranged for an agreed length of time and, where appropriate, birds may be let out for supervised exercise if they are comfortable and happy to do so
​
During each visit:
-
Fresh food and water are provided as required
-
Cages and aviaries are cleaned according to your preferences, discussed during the initial consultation
-
Outdoor aviary birds can be cared for, with monitoring of chicks and eggs where necessary
Health Awareness & Medication Support
Bird owners know how vital early detection of illness can be, as birds often hide symptoms until they are seriously unwell. I am experienced in recognising early signs of illness and, following consultation with an avian vet, can administer certain types of prescribed medication where required.
Experienced & Knowledgeable Bird Care
I have extensive hands-on experience in exotic bird care, including caring for my own rescue Hahn’s macaws, as well as several rehomed budgies, celestial parrotlets, and Bourke’s parakeets over many years.
I understand the unique needs of exotic birds and the importance of maintaining their routine, diet, and mental stimulation
Diet, Nutrition & Hygiene for Parrots
Understanding how important a varied and enriching diet is for parrots, I am happy to provide a carefully prepared diet of sprouted seeds and pulses, fresh vegetables, and fruit, in line with your individual bird’s requirements. This is offered alongside your bird’s regular diet of seed or pellets, exactly as specified by you.
I also understand the importance of strict hygiene when feeding fresh and sprouted foods. Any uneaten sprouted seeds, fruit, or vegetables are removed after a few hours to prevent bacterial growth and ensure a clean, safe environment for your bird.
