One flat fee for the whole stay — 3 to 21 nights, same price. A long weekend costs $50. Three full weeks costs $50. Run by Amir out of a quiet room in Burlington for small caged birds only. Food, water, twice-daily checks, no frills. Up to three budgies share a cage at the same flat rate.
Punjabi-Canadian, Burlington local, runs the whole thing out of a quiet room with a bunch of cages in it. No staff, no receptionist, no fancy website chrome. Picks up your bird, feeds it, waters it, gives it back. That is the entire job and Amir has been doing it for small-bird owners since small-bird owners started getting quoted nine hundred dollars a week at the gentle-nature-caring boarders down the road.
Background: Indian-kid-who-grew-up-with-budgies background. Dad had a pair of lovebirds in Chandigarh before the family moved. Bird instinct runs in the blood. You do not need to pay for a certificate to know when a budgie is fluffed up wrong.
No out-of-cage time. Your bird stays in its cage the entire stay.
No photo updates. If something goes wrong we text you. Otherwise, silence is good news.
No video calls. This is not a concierge service.
No enrichment programs. The cage is the environment.
No care journal. You want a journal, keep one at home.
$945
Forty-five dollars per bird, per night, times three birds, times seven nights. Plus enrichment fee, photo update fee, long-weekend surcharge. Realistic walk-away total: eleven hundred.
$84
Twelve dollars a day, times seven days. One cage, three budgies inside, one bill. Zero add-ons. The end of the sentence is the total.
"Three budgies in one cage and every other boarder wanted to charge me per bird. Amir took all three at the flat twelve-dollar rate. Same price I would have paid for one. Came home to three happy, well-fed birds."
— Rachel W., Aldershot
"Was quoted sixty dollars a night elsewhere for our cockatiel. Amir did the same week for under a hundred total. No video calls, no care journal, just our bird in his cage getting fed. Honest people, honest price."
— Tom B., Roseland
