  Suzanne is such a treasure! My dear companion, Mica, a green cheek conure, spent a whole year with her while I searched for a suitable place for us to live. During that year, I had the opportunity to spend time with them both and learn so much more deeply the nuances of the relationship that we share with our birds.Suzanne listens deeply, to both owners and birds, with a level of compassion and integrity that is remarkably effective in changing the relationship for the better.
  
  Before we moved to Seattle, I had been experiencing some behavioral challenges with Mica, and at the time was even considering rehoming her because it was so stressful for us both. In a phone conversation, Suzanne helped me to see through a different lens, how closely our birds bond with us, how change and adaptation are a natural part of their lives and ours, and that maintaining the relationship was the best thing for us both.I am deeply grateful to Suzanne that Mica and I are still together. She has instilled in my perception an awareness of how Mica responds to her surroundings and how vital it is to maintain a diet that is appropriate for companion parrots. Two of the greatest gifts that I have received from Suzanne's coaching are that I now feel confident that I am meeting Mica's needs, and that I pay attention to Mica's body language much more adeptly.
  
  I feel that Mica was in the very best possible hands during our time apart and she has returned to me a happy and balanced companion.Suzanne's ability to perceive and observe bird behavior and relationships is truly unique and valuable to anyone looking for the epitome of care. Her interaction is extended with gentle understanding and keen observation of where our birds are in the moment, and fitting together the pieces of why they act, or react, the way that they do. To say that her attention to the subtle details of a bird's environment and knowledge of cross contamination is admirable, is an understatement.
  Her passion for her work shines through in our birds as they adapt and thrive in her loving care.

  Pampered Parrot has done an excellent job boarding my parrots for nearly five years. Suzanne always makes sure they have access to a healthy diet and plenty of attention. She is also my go-to for parrot related health and behavior questions. She has been a wealth of information for me. Her excellent level of care gives me peace of mind, which means a lot since I consider my birds as family.

  You simply cannot do better than Suzanne and Pampered Parrot. She is PHENOMENAL! She provides personalized, loving care and has the professional education and training to help you care for your own bird better. She loves birds and goes the extra, extra mile to care for your bird and bond with them.
  
  Incredible avian knowledge and a wonderful person. We boarded our conure with Pampered Parrot for several weeks while selling our home and relocating to another state. Suzanne is a GREAT communicator and stayed in touch with us throughout the process providing us updates and pics of a very happy “Kirby” which really helped my wife and I focus on what we had to do and not worry about our bird. When we picked him up he hopped from my shoulder back to Suzanne where he nuzzled her neck.
  
  You will not find a more loving or better person to care for your bird. She really makes them feel at home. Highly recommend!

  I cannot write enough good things about Pampered Parrot. We have an 8 yr old canary winged parakeet family member named Jimmie who lost her bird friend, Scout, last year. The loss of Scout changed everything for our family. Although Jimmie seemed fine, I stopped being able to take overnight trips because she would refuse to eat. Birds are not like dogs and I was never prepared to see how long this would last. Jimmie had never been boarded before and we'd always left her in our home with a family member coming to stay with her - these are people that she knew and loved - but this was no longer enough. We cancelled trips and tried intermittently to see if she had returned to normal. She refused to eat with each trial. After 9 months we knew this wasn't a blip. Enter "Auntie" Suzanne. She has DECADES of experience with all things bird. From our first conversation, Suzanne was kind, knowledgeable and incredibly insightful. I scheduled an appointment for her behavior coaching which was immensely helpful. She gave me applicable information and ideas that I immediately put to use to help Jimmie get her swagger back. Within weeks, we all noticed a change. We scheduled a trip and discussed boarding with Suzanne. We both felt that Jimmie needed to be able to see and hear other birds. She needed a safe environment in which to build her confidence. Suzanne has an amazing group of rescued birds that share her home. She is meticulous about their care and needs. She is thoughtful about individual birds and we decided Jimmie's cage placement would be where she could watch other feathered friends and (hopefully) eat when they ate, preen when they preened, etc. It worked like a charm. I worried about my girl but never for a moment worried that Suzanne didn't have eyes on her. I knew that Suzanne would monitor every morsel, every possible nibble. Jimmie adored "camp" (our term for Suzanne's home). We received frequent texts and pictures of Jimmie out playing with Suzanne and EATING her favorite foods. We were THRILLED! Upon our return, Jimmie was happy to see me but didn't cling to me as she would have before camp and the changes we noticed since bringing her home have been so amazing. She is back to her confident, sassy self. She flies to all our family members and spends time with everyone and rarely seeks me out in the desperate way that she did after the loss of Scout. I never thought I'd board our girl but after camp - I doubt I'll ever not board Jimmie with Auntie Suzanne. It is a vacation for her as much as it is for us. Thank you again, Auntie Suzanne! We look forward to our next vacation!!!

  I have boarded my green-cheeked parrot, Verdi, with Pampered Parrot several times, and I couldn't be happier! It's always tough leaving my little Verdi behind when I travel, but I know he's in good hands when he stays at Pampered Parrot. Suzanne, the owner, really knows and loves birds, and I know Verdi is getting the very best care. Suzanne doesn't board a bunch of birds at the same time, so I'm confident Verdi is getting the individualized attention he deserves. Suzanne has special "bird rooms" in her home, and they are light-filled and immaculately clean. She also has a good selection of safe, cute toys that are reasonably priced.
