FAQ for finding bird sitters near you
What is a bird sitter?
A bird sitter is essentially a babysitter for your pet bird. If you’re out of town for an extended period of time, you can hire a bird sitter to keep an eye on your birds, play with them, and make sure any pet birds have fresh food and water. They can also clean their cage and make sure they get to spend some time out of their cages safely. You can interview a couple different bird sitters to get an idea of what type of responsibilities they’re willing to take on.
How much do bird sitters cost near me?
Bird sitters on Care.com charge an average of $15.87 per hour as of March, 2025 at a national level.
