We have been grooming birds for over 30+ years! We have corrected countless malformed beaks and some veterinarians refer their clients to us. Booking your grooming in advance helps us plan for the Fall Pet Expo, walk-ups will also be welcome but appointments take priority.
All birds must arrive in appropriate travel carriers for their appointment. Failure to do will result in refusal of service.
Bird grooming at the Spring Pet Expo is booked in 15min intervals. These appointments are for 1-3 birds. Appointments are free to book, but there is a fee for the grooming once it has been completed. Prices are per service, per bird and can be seen in our pricing chart on this page.
We ask that you show up at your appointment start time to avoid overlap of appointments. If you have a late arrival, we can still groom your birds and will do our best to accommodate you.
What We Can Groom
We can trim your birds flight feathers and nails, as well as work at reshaping malformed beaks. We are also able to "clean up" beaks as well, for example some larger birds' beaks grow unattractive layers. Our efforts are to groom each bird as fast possible to reduce / eliminate unnecessary stress on your bird.
All birds for grooming must arrive in an appropriate carriers. During the colder months we ask that you have a blanket, towel, or some other form of cover to prevent the bird from catching a chill when it is outside.
We thank you for your cooperation.

Why Can't I Pay For Grooming Online?
We don't want to charge you until we have seen your bird and completed the grooming. Otherwise you may pay for services your bird doesn't end up needing!
I Have A Large Macaw, Can You Groom Them?
Absolutely! We can groom just about any bird from the smallest finches to the largest cockatoos and macaws. We do suggest that you call ahead to ensure we have someone here who is able to groom for the largest parrots.
How Many Birds Pet Appointment?
Our grooming appointments are made to accommodate up to 5 birds each, so long as each bird has their own suitable carrier.
When Is It Too Cold/Hot To Bring My Bird?
Most birds are hardy and tolerant of a range of temperatures. Very rarely do we reach temperatures that actually make it unsafe to transport birds (as long as the proper safety steps are taken).
With a proper cover fitted to a carrier and a preheated vehicle, birds can be safely transported as low as -25° C. On the other end of the scale, 30° C is getting too hot for safe transport.
Temperatures falling outside this range do not mean grooming appointments must be cancelled, there are just more precautions to be taken.
What Happens If I Miss An Appointment?
If you know you are not going to make it or are going to be late, please call us before your appointment time to inform us. We are more than happy to reschedule to the next available time for you. If you miss appointments routinely without informing us, we reserve the right to refuse service.
How Often Should My Bird Be Groomed?
Grooming frequency varies between individuals and species. Generally, nails will need to be done 3-4 times per year. Customers coming for wings trimmings are usually here 2-3 times per year. Beak trimming is much less predictable, if we are correcting a malformed beak we may need you here several times over the span of a few months. If it is cosmetic, you may have it done one or two times per year. Many birds don't ever need their beak trimmed. We will turn away a beak grooming if it is unnecessary.
