Going on Vacation?
Or are you not going on vacation because you can’t find a reliable bird-sitter?
When you board your bird at the Center for Animal Rehabilitation & Education, Inc., you will know your friend is getting daily attention and proper care while you are away. We accept birds for short and long-term stays. For the safety of our birds and others boarding, we require that your pet be vet-checked, including blood work [chem panel and CBC], and pronounced healthy within the last year. Please schedule ahead whenever possible, as our space is limited, and certain times – especially around holidays – fill up quickly. Call us at (262) 875-4115 or submit a Boarding Reservation Request below to make a reservation.
