Elie provides attentive, species-aware pet sitting for parrots, cockatiels, finches, lovebirds, and all companion birds — with daily updates, personalized routines, and genuine love for avian life.
The trust difference
…it is one of the most profound acts of trust a parrot can show. It exposes the crop — the most vulnerable part of their body. Kiwi does this willingly. That kind of bond isn't given to strangers. It's earned through patience, consistency, and a genuine understanding of how birds think.
"Birds don't perform trust. They grant it — slowly, on their own terms. My job is to be worthy of it."
— ElieWhat I offer
I come to your home, maintaining your bird's familiar environment, routines, cage layout, and social interaction schedule.
Each bird gets a documented profile — diet, health notes, behavioral quirks, vet contacts — so nothing is left to guesswork.
Receive photos and notes every visit so you can travel with complete peace of mind about your companion bird.
Experienced with avian medications and supplements per your vet's instructions. Oral and topical medications administered with care.
Conversation, foraging activities, and out-of-cage time (per your instructions) to keep your bird mentally stimulated.
Clear escalation plan, your preferred avian vet on file, and knowledge of the nearest avian emergency clinic in Phoenix.
