Commuter-friendly bird care for Southwood in south Ajax, minutes from Bayly Street and the Ajax GO Station, built for households that catch the early train into the city.
Southwood is one of the more practical, value-minded communities in south Ajax, sitting below Bayly Street and within easy reach of the Ajax GO Station at 100 Westney Road South. It is a popular choice for first-home buyers and working couples precisely because of that rail access: hop on the Lakeshore East line in the morning and you are downtown before long. The trade-off is that Southwood homes empty out early and fill up late, which is a real challenge if there is a bird waiting at home.
A budgie or cockatiel left alone from the 6 a.m. train until a 7 p.m. return is a bird that is under-stimulated and under-socialised, and over time that shows up as feather-plucking, screaming, or simple unhappiness. The Southwood owners who reach out to us are usually looking for exactly this: someone to break up those long weekday gaps, and a reliable boarding option for the work conferences and weekend trips that come with a commuter lifestyle.
We tailor every Southwood plan to the commute. Daily sitting visits slot into your workday, overnight boarding covers the trips that keep you in the city or out of town, and extended stays handle the longer absences. We follow your bird's routine to the letter, provide plenty of interaction and enrichment, and send photo and video updates straight to your phone, so even on the busiest GO-train morning you can see your feathered friend is settled and cared for back in Southwood.
